My kids are so spoiled. We do all kinds of stuff. Fishing, camping, hunting, geocahcing. We spend lots of time doing family stuff. I think they will take it for granted until they get older and realize that not everyone does stuff like that.

Unsub:
I don't think there is any issue whatsoever with leaving the hatchet at home. I actually prefer a knife this size even if a hatchet is available. Most of the stuff I do is splitting down wood like this. Batoning lets you be more accurate because you can place it exactly where you want it. Versus hoping you hit where you intended (with a hatchet).

Anyway, thanks for the comments all.
