    Where can I buy an Axe?

    Hi,

    Anyone know where I can buy an axe? Should not be one of those small camping axe's, but at least 50cm in length. I already tried to order it from taobao, but turns out that its "illegal" to send the axe to hong kong?!?!

    Just curious OP, what do you need a big ax for? Chopping trees? Make sure you have permission to chop your intended tree. In some cases, even if the tree in question is located within your own property (i.e. back garden), the government may not allow you to chop it (and if you do-that would be illegal).

    I've never seen any local store selling an axe.

    No, I didn't intend to chop down any trees. But, I just recently moved to a new property with a nice garden, but the garden is filled with big old dead branches that have fallen off from trees nearby. So, I will chop those to pieces and burn them, some of them are far too big to burn without making them smaller.

    this, again I think you should visit the local hardwarestores or those selling gardening equipment.
