Comment by Howard P Reynolds on September 18, 2013 at 10:32: Peter,

Woodman's Pal, I thought was made in Boyertown, PA (268 N. Berks St.), but Google Maps says they are in Pottstown, PA - Pro Tool Industries (337 Circle of Progress Dr).

Comment by Tobias Gibson on September 18, 2013 at 6:27: That is one awesome weed whacker you got there, Clay! I can really dig it. The Woodman's pal is great for heavy branches and bramble but really too heavy for cutting a path through saw grass. I still need to get a decent machete.

Comment by Tobias Gibson on September 18, 2013 at 6:20: Peter. The picture with the Tag and clean blade is the way it looked when it first arrived about a year ago. The sheath is still unused but the Pal, not so much. I've used it to take out a bush or two (or three or ten) -- split fire wood with it, hacked roots out of the ground, etc.

I bought it for the bug out bag with the understanding my life and my families life might depend on it some day. With that in mind it would be fool hardy not to put it through its paces. Plus, what the fun in having a big honkin' bushwhacker and just hanging it on the wall!

Comment by Clay Strong on September 18, 2013 at 0:29: Tobias, I want to buy a Woodman's Pal someday. They are cool and I'm sure very effective. I picked up its cousin to slip into the sheath on the back of my over-the-shoulder shotgun holster. I'm not paranoid in the woods, just scared as hell of mad grizzlies.
