Top 5 Throwing Axes Under $50 

Thanks, guys! I went axe throwing with the girls a couple weeks ago and loved it so my husband surprised me with a target! I need some axes and didn't know where to go! This video is great and very informative!

I watched this video when I first started throwing in 2018 and finally got myself a plumb national and I love it

You got my attention by mentioning throwing my axe...hell yeah, lets do that! Thanks for the videos guys!!!

Awesome! I restore old axes and make custom handles!! I have lots of these old hatchets. I’ll have to get rolling on the throwing axes 🪓

Go out to the forrest. Find a standing dead or a stump. Enjoy outdoors. And BTW a cheap walmart hatchet works just fine. Just pick a good one with the right grain orientation in the handle and a good wedging. Enjoy.

#1. Shopro Professional Scout Hatchet 3.4-3.7" (1.5lb) #2. Snow & Nealley Camper's Belt Axe 3" (1.25lb) #3. Plumb Victory Rafting Hatchet 4" (1.75 lb) #4. Cold Steel Axe Gang 4" (1.4lb) #5 . Plumb Victory Half Hatchet 3.7-4" (1.75lb)

Im going to back up the plumb victory axe. I had one i used for hawk competition in the past when they let me. I will probably be throwing it more in the future.

Interesting opinions. Thanks. Question: have you ever tried throwing at end-grain? I mean, I've been sinking a hatchet into the same log for the last six months, and all of those pine boards must get expensive. So what's the deal with not just aiming at a log face?

Will there be a top 5 big axe review? I bought the axe gang based on this video - and its awesome ! Thanks guys

Hey I was your 1,000th subscriber congrats

Plumb Victory...it's my understanding the early ones made for actual use by carpenters have a thinner blade and better finishing. The later ones, like the one I found in my garage, have a thicker blade and a rough finish. Something to consider if someone is buying a Plumb Victory on-line, expecting a head that simply needs a good sharpening.

Hello, on the Cold Steel Axe Gang when u say u run yours at 14 1/4” is that overall length including head or is that only stick handle?

how do you know what handle to buy for plumb victory? how does similar truper ax perform? can you make vid on selecting and replacing handles please

Both those PlumbBSH are now more than $50 since they're considered collectable. My Plumb National is WW2 era (actually a Plumb National Victory) and the half hatchet perhaps 1960s-80s (impossible to tell). Tho it throws well, I personally don't like the half hatchet as much as the National (I own both) bc I like a heavier hatchet with a full 4" bit and longer handle. In general curved handles are harder to throw with until you master the pro/claw grip but straight handles are MUCH easier to use.

How about over $50 now :) Started with a Shopro, went to an Axe Gang and need some suggestions on what next!

How do I get one this axes am interested in axe throwing

What length on the Plumb's would you suggest, is 14'' about right? Thanks.

What model truper handle for the plumber half hatchet do you use?

Cool, but I prefer tomahawks, or full steel constructed hatchets like Eastwing etc... (if you like hatchets for whatever reason) All the ones you show here will break pretty easy, and re-fitting handles is a pain in the ass. IMO.

Hi, how did you guys find out that these were NATF approved? I can't seem to find anything. Thanks.

What's the brand of the first handle you mentioned for the plumb victory?? Thanks for the video.. Just bought my first plumb...

Thanks for making this video. I was looking around online and noticed that most of the Plumb Victory Half Hatchets seem to be either used, or from odd sellers. Is that company out of business or something? Can't seem to source a new one directly from the company or any retail locations. If they're no longer making them, do you perhaps know of any companies with a similar design and good quality that is still manufacturing / selling this type of hatchet new?

Hi guys! Just did a homemade target, but the wood doesn't seem right, I'm using pine wood, can you recommend any other?

Would the CRKT tomahawk be legal to use?

I'm curious, what's the deal with the plaques with the golden axe's on them? What is written on them?

Top 5 big axe... please??

Dear Modern Axe Throwing Sport, Cultures that depended on ax throwing such as the Native Americans and Norse people used a slide on friction fit hafting style for a reason, you should look into that. I'm looking at you council members of organizations such as World Axe Throwing League, National Axe Throwing Federation, The Backyard Axe Throwing Association, etc. ... Also I use the words ax and axe as ways to make a slight distinction, and thus, *to me* , they're not interchangeable. That is to show that I like by the ax so deeply that I, like Eskimos with the word snow, have found need for more distinction, even with the broader term. It's a matter of how generalized we're getting versus how generic were getting when we use this term. [This is your TLDR warning, sorry it's a little late. The following is just for the curious, it's just me trying to explain what the difference is *to me* between 'ax' and 'axe'. Also the format is rambling so, fair warning there too.] To me, when I say axe it's one specific axe that is not the same as an identical axe that came off the same exact factory line... it's yours, not Bob's... it's a specific axe... the generic term. When I'm refering to one of any ax* or one of any specific type of ax, so for example "hand me an ax from that pile of axes". I also pluralize them differently... I had to make up a word to do this. I pluralize axe as axes, however *I pluralize ax as axen. Axes are of a specific type or implies you care about how you can group them separate from other typs of axes, but axen are all axen no matter what type. Ax can also be paralyzed simply as ax, ie "a pile of ax" = "a pile of axen" but does not equal "a pile of axes" as I care which type of axes... they must be from that pile of axes on our tabe because those are the ones we rented from the bar... verses a pile in a line of piles of community axes in a Norse Village in like the year 922 or something ... then it's axes because we don't care what the grouping is if they grab from a pile any pile and grab one at random than it's as good as the next... poor example, not realistic, I know, but it communicates the point of how I use the word. Okay jay went out, my high's wearing off, and so this only-a-half-troll is over, hope you enjoyed it. Cheers.

How is the Cold Steel Axe Gang ok to use. It’s over 2 lbs. i thought that would be over weight?

What does NATF mean?

omg plumbs are so much more expensive than that

so wood handles are required.

Very good club gays!!

After two minutes of watching, I began to wonder if he was going to TALK the axe into the wood. Yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda ... ... and I shut it down.

first off...the plumb pattern you showed is not a rafting pattern. that pattern you have is called a plumb national. and if you can find one for under 50 bucks let me know...ill buy all of them you can find. learn your craft before you teach.

None of those are throwing axes
