Can it be used to chop camp fire wood? :-)

Its not a chopping axe its a hatchet. Hatchets are best suited to remove smaller dead branches and for splitting kinding. You can however use the hatchet with a hand sized log as a hammer to split larger pieces of wood. Search how to use a hatchet or hand axe on skill training on youtube to learn more.

I would definitely say yes. I haven't used it yet but will this summer for camping and backpacking. But it's VERY sharp and it's perfect for a backpacking Axe it's small and compact

in theory yes, but the handle is too short and close to the blade. I cannot recommend this tool :0[

I don't believe so. I would use mine to cut food but make sure to care for the blade afterwards due to the high carbon blade

Yes, it can be used to rip small jobs. Just keep a steady cutting feed to avoid burning. High volume Jobs and ripping extremely hard woods should be done with a rip blade...

It is good at chopping up sticks. It will be difficult to feed the chips into it. It may work but it will be more work than it is worth.

Don't know: never tried, as I have a separate chop saw. If I were thinking about it, I'd check with DeWalt, or at least look at rotational speed; I'd be concerned about the chop saw blade coming apart if rotation were too fast -- or cutting ineffectively if the rotation was too slow.

This thing would definitely be capable I have used it to cut down a 10 diameter pine in my backyard, it took a fair amount longer than my regular felling axe did, but as it is of higher quality than my felling axe it held a much better edge. The sheath is mediocre and would not last if used for very long I replace mine with a home made one. Great axe for the price and lightweight. Ideal for camping I'd say or making smaller pieces of firewood into kindling for you woodstove/fireplace.

Yes It should be able to handle shaving some wood. It's not a wood craving chisel how ever. Did pretty good on the 2 elk last year. but I did have to stop And touch it up every now and then. But same thing with my case knife.

After Christmas, I used it to chop through a 5" dia Christmas Tree trunk, swinging as hard as I could. The machete did not bend - the trunk did cut. It took several swings - which is proably why people don't use machetes to chop logs.

Yes and it will not only throw sparks with ease, I've also used to process some wood and other little bushcraft chores. It is a straight edge and works great.

Don't see why not, but it's pretty expensive for that and would probably get all scratched up. As a camper, I'd get something from WalMart, REI or Target to use on a campfire. I love this griddle on my gas stove but would be hesitant to slap it on a campfire

I have not used it for that...the blades are quite sharp...I am guessing that it will chop your dog food...the chopping well is fairly small...it may only do 1 meal at a time (depending on the size & appetite of your dog).

I wouldn't use this to chop, really. It really shines in picking up things already chopped with your chefs knife or any other knife. Cheese and other soft things can be chopped with it but this tool is basically a "picker-upper" tool.

I wouldn't think so - it is HUGE and I don't think it would be agile enough for that. It works really well for carving meat into really thin slices.

I have not, and I would not !! This saw is designed for wood as far as I know and it's a rough cutting saw, it would be very dangerous!!

Probably would, but it would be slow going requiring a lot of strength. Its a good knife but I don't think its that good. I would try a small saw.

If you can cut it with a butter knife, you can chop it with this. Its not like an electric food processor by any stretch. I only use it for very very very soft foods. Not too versatile whatsoever. I recommend good knife or an electric food processor. It's good for salsa and sauces.

yes except were there cord cutter is near the end. This not your average knife , you you can chop, dig, pry ,saw with it and probably fight with it in close quarters very effectively. I have dug with it and chopped small limbs. It is thick enough to split small logs using another piece of wood as hammer.
