Ok so I've got an axe recently and I'am wondering what else I need to get to maintain it? Should I get the file and stone? What about the possibiliity of Japanese water stones or a DC4 which I use to maintain my knife?

British Red has done a great thread on this topic, 'how to sharpen an axe'. It's a sticky in the edged tools section I believe:rolleyes:

It's not actually a sticky although it should be but here (http://www.bushcraftuk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=22814) is the thread that Buckley refers to.

Thanks for that!:beerchug:
Just read it......its the file and stone so and I second that motion to make it sticky. Very informative!
