The Pickaroon - 28" Straight Handle

The Pickaroon is a curious-looking tool that gets looked over and underestimated on an almost continuous basis.

Besides saving you a lot of time, the Pickaroon will also save your shoulders, back, and knees.

Put simply, the Pickaroon is designed to help you move a piece of wood from over there to over here.

In practice that looks like:

• Picking up firewood (rounds or split) off the ground without having to bend over
• Carrying rounds from place to place at your side (essentially adding a handle to your wood)
• Dragging a piece out of the bed of your truck without having to climb up into it
• pulling or pushing a slab through the mill or table saw
• Rolling logs or bigger rounds
• Pulling small logs across the ground

The list can go on and on, but I think you get my point - this tool has countless uses, and each one helps your work move faster and your body last longer.

The pick is designed in such a way that you only need to sharpen one facet of the pick to maintain or change its cutting and sticking power. All you need to do is take a flat hand file to the factory-sharpened edge for a few strokes - it's that simple.

You can make your work of moving rounds faster and more comfortable by having a Pickaroon in both hands. Not only are you able to do twice the amount of work but having a balanced load makes it much easier for your body to handle.

This 28" Pickaroon is more focused on the firewood-centered tasks you may encounter but the 36" Pickaroon is much more suited for reaching and getting wood out of the back of a car or pulling a slab off a mill.
