mandotim...I'm an unabashed lover/owner of wood instruments and not so long ago would have exercised a great prejudice against your carbon fibre wonder, but you are quite right in saying they are superb instruments and as a camp axe, one would be ideal. Cost might prevent many folks from owning one and I sometimes wonder what sort of environmental impact their manufacture creates, but in the big scheme of things a carbon fibre axe is high on my list of considerations. (Great live axe too, btw...)

I envy your choice.

Peace, Mooh.
