Because knifes are more lightweight and are also bayonets. Most curcumstances wont requite an axe over a knife.

Why do soldiers use knifes why don't they just carry a shovel?

Knives are great for utility and be used in combat. I dont really see me cutting much wood, or processing fire woods, so an axe is just retarded.

but axe is badass and scary

What if I got this for my knife?

Because an axe is a bushcraft tool for chopping firewood and building shelter. Neither of which soldiers are doing a lot of. A knife is a utility tool that is still very much useful in most aspects of modern life.

>tobacco pipe
The fuck

wh-what

for ants, sure

for tinder you retarded nigger

That looks uncomfortable and unwieldy for all the advertised uses.

We carry pick axes and axes in our trucks instead. If we need an axe odds are a truck will be near by. Our knives larger than a folder are usually either a combat knife or a bayonet. Neither of which is carried very often anymore.

why do soldiers carry axes when they could just carry a chainsaw
why do soldiers carry rifles when they could just carry a howitzer
why do soldiers carry laser beacons to call in airstrikes when they could just carry an F35 in their backpack
why did your mother carry you for 9 months when she could've just scrambled you into an omelette and dumped you in a trash can

I don't think this will help get women on Tinder unless you draw it on them after they arrive.

I carried a tomahawk as a grunt. Everyone thought I was retarded. Then I started hearing "Let me borrow your Tomahawk." Soon half the platoon had tomahawk.

least useful feature, why would you ever want to give this knife to someone you don't like

used to carry one on a wildland fire engine. no practical use whatsoever, especially considering that we had chainsaws and felling axes and such anyway, but it was fun to throw when we were staging for extended periods away from the public eye.

I know that some British troops carried axes in the French and Indian War. I'm assuming though it was because they were in forests and needed wood

Why don't they carry a pistol too? Why don't they loot stuff? Being a soldier means you're an axe. You're not useful for practical things, and nobody wants you around so your useful when they need it. Nobody should cut down trees, axes don't have a use if you're not cutting down trees because axes are useful for that. It shouldn't happen so the thing shouldn't be around, even if it happens only people that do what you say should have it so you can say someone else did it because you can't and need someone else to blame for something that happened.

a weapon to surpass metal gear

But they listed it as a feature on an existing knife.

What about using the other guy's helmet?

>Why do soldiers use knifes why don't they just carry an axe

Special Forces carried tomahawks in Viet Nam, it was a far better weapon/tool in the jungle than it would be in the desert or urban warfare. Pretty awesome piece of gear, though.

hey, you guys get helmets?

AAAAAAAGHHHHHHHHHHH

>What about using the other guy's helmet?
It would be sort of embarrassing if "the other guy" had his chin strap buckled.

You can’t stab someone 7” deep with an axe

It looks like fish, and might be dangerous to the weilder.
It's so retarded that I kind of want one.

Is this PTSD?

>hey, you guys get helmets?
Fuck no. Imagine what would happen if a helmet got into the wrong hands
