Hytest Axe Comparison
In this video I compare the profiles of the vintage Australian Hytest Craftsman and Forester axes models. These were manufactured in the 1950s by Hytest in Sydney and Melbourne and were high-quality, forged Tasmanian-pattern axes designed for farmers (Craftsman) and professional timber getters (Forester). I show here the 4.5 and 4 pound Craftsman and Forester axes.
