Owning more than a couple of axes is just weird. A couple and you’re fine, but like a dozen, and you can forget about anyone assuming you’re not a serial murderer. This presents a problem since, with the rise of zombie pop culture, there are more kick-ass axes available now than ever and we don’t want to scare of the ladies (our extensive back hair usually takes care of that). If you’re looking for a reason to purchase the M48 Ranger Hawk Axe but you already have an axe or two, well, this bad boy is lightweight, portable and looks like what the military will use during the rising of the dead. Hell, even if you already have a bunch of axes, they can always be stored out of sight, right?
