    colin.p I got my Woodchuck peavey/cant hook from Lee Valley and I figure the hookaroon is theirs as well. The peavey is very well made and works great. I also picked up the wooden handled picaroon from them and it's a great little tool. Really don't know why I waited so long to get one. I am going to get a longer one eventually but the size is perfect for tossing in the box on the quad and makes splitting much easier on the back. I don't grab a saw without it now.

    I bounced mine off my shin after glancing it off a round. The flat side hit me. No damage.

    Just got my fiskars hookaroon, absolutely love it, best back saver ever.
    I use it to pick up or stand up splits for easy grabbing, and love the way it makes positioning the big rounds for the ramp super easy
