Joe Bethel bought a SMITH & WESSON throwing axe/knife combo set. Axe breaks in 3 days. Now, Dan Bethel hand fabricates a new axe based on their design, in his garage, in less than 3 hours.

My friend has the same axe. It broke in a day....

It seems like the only way to get good products these days are to spend a shit ton and have something custom made by someone in their garage or make your own things.

@spoopa92 The one I made in the video cost about $2 in scrap metal, and maybe $15 in welding and grinding, still cheaper than the axe.

@hojomojo3 It's alot easier than saying it with words.....plus it sticks around, lol

Good work Dan. Damn right about that offshore crap. That would piss me off too.

@how0will0this0end I think I was more pissed that my brother trusted the name brand, because at one time, S&W was a good company. To see the disappointment in his eyes, bothered me.

[danbethel]

@supercow61 Amen!

@MrPinhead11 Sorry to say, Joe destroyed Sparkey. He got mad at it for breaking, and jumped it off a huge rock. Although we have been talking about making another mini rock crawler.
