We've all pondered this question and now's the time to vote!

Which hand axe would you depend on to get you through the tough times after the utter collapse of mdoern civilisation?

Ah, no love for the Surinam?





Oops, my bad. You said "Hand Axe".

You have to admit that the Surinam is a nice stone axe though.

Six mistakes mankind keeps making century after century: Believing that personal gain is made by crushing others; Worrying about things that cannot be changed or corrected; Insisting that a thing is impossible because we cannot accomplish it; Refusing to set aside trivial preferences; Neglecting development and refinement of the mind; Attempting to compel others to believe and live as we do

The Mousterian was the best stone head axe in call of duty modern warfare 2.

How typical of you to choose the American design over the obviously superior German design. You do know there were some Nazi's who weren't evil (Second sentence, ooh yeah I'm fast!).

Why have you brought up length of service, just because the Neanderthal design had been superseded by the rifle. No you can't cut firewood with a rifle but that's not the point.

I think I've covered everything...

Yea but your German rock on the end of a stick is also atheist, wheres my Cherokee hand axe is blessed by the Great Spirit and is part of the Great Circle of Life.

Heretic!

I have napped stone before, and I have not idea what sort of weapon is resembled. but I was sharp as hell. By the way, a real hand axe is held together with gut, not twine.

Id agree on that one. Gimli is a pimp, wearing a pimp suit, dishing out pimp slaps with his pimp hand!

I'm disappointed more people aren't picking the Makgadikgadian.

It's the most powerful stone hand axe of all time, and can cut through a wooly mammoth.
