"In the world of knives, a lot has changed since these ads ran... But there are plenty of classics that haven’t changed a bit over the decades—and why should they? They were perfect then, and they’re perfect today. "

“Recently, I was clearing shooting lanes for a deer stand using a machete from a well-known knife company. It was total junk. The blade edge bent with each strike and was as dull as Joe Biden well before I got the first sapling out of the way. That’s when I knew I needed a better tool.

The Woodman’s Pal is made of quality steel that will cut through the trees rather than bending to their shape. They won a world war with this thing, so a maple branch is nothing.”

Bryce M. Towsley from the National Rifle Association’s American Hunter recently featured our Woodman’s Pal in his top three “Hunting Tools You Didn’t Know You Needed”
