and here one but i think it is not for felling, sport or anything maybe? http://www.fine-tools.com/G307330.htm
for example according to this site http://www.endtimesreport.com/woodcutting.html the right one in this picture http://www.endtimesreport.com/pictures/double-bit-2.jpg is for falling and the left one is for limbing, but you see above in ebay they introduced as felling axe. on the other hand according to this site http://www.vannattabros.com/saw5.html falling axes are this http://www.vannattabros.com/adospics/axe.jpg (above in ebay link there is one called falling logging axe, and it is very similar, you can see it, the 42 inch handled one, red handle.)
so friends can you help me??? (and you must say about it's handle's length and the ideal weight of head for this job, i see a 42 inch handle, is it ok or long, must be 36 or 42 or much more or less? also tell me the best steel type, vanadium, molbdenum, cast iron, cast steel,etc. Tell me)(if you know about a web site that guys knows better, you can tell me there)
