Customer comments about the 22BR:

 
March 2012

“I just wanted to say that I learned about Council Tool within the past year. I am involved in bushcraft and camping and when the announcement came out that CT was going to produce some higher quality axes aimed at my hobby, most of us took notice. Earlier this year, I saw a video on YouTube by Israel Turley of Turley Knives on your Boy’s Axe. He thought very highly of it and showed that a $40 tool made in the USA could compete with Wetterlings and Gransfors Bruks. I ended up buying a Boy’s Axe online and just used it for the first time this weekend. It is an excellent axe! I am very, very pleased with it and I’m looking forward to many long years of use.”

 
Sept 2011
“I recently acquired a Council Tool Boys Ax.  Considering the relatively low cost of the item, I would have expected some manufacturing defects, but much to my surprise, there were none.  After beveling and sharpening the bit, which was pretty easy to do, I have found this ax to be my favorite.  It may not out perform a bigger ax cut for cut, but it is far less tiring to use, and the job is more pleasant because of it.  A word on the haft is in order.  If you study what the professional ax men of the last century preferred, you will see that they liked thinner, whippier handles.  This was because less shock was transmitted to their hands and arms on each swing.  Today, most ax hafts are pretty thick, no doubt to help prevent breakage from wild swings.  The Council Tool hafts are the best I’ve seen yet, and the thin haft of the Boys Ax makes it a joy to use for extended periods of time.”

I am hard to please...especially expensive products...
K...So I have this 26 ft. sailboat. I have all the professional equipment you can use to restore fiberglass shine. However, a 15 year old sailboat's topside will usually have pitting that you COULD sand down and shine.. but this is a risky step as you think the gelcoat and if you go through, now you have an eyesore of an entirely different nature... My only problem with trying this was the idea that it would fade out shortly and possibly yellow. However, a bigger concern is continued breakdown of the glass surface. An over-riding concern. Wax on a surface that is pitted is usually short lasting and does shine well..good for 3 months, maybe. I bit the bullet and bought this after looking at it's competitors. BUY THE KIT, NOT JUST THE POLIGLOW. The cleaner worked better than any other I have bought. I don't know why. It just did. The scrubbing sponge is perfect for the job. I used a smaller dishwashing scrubber in tight spaces..it seriously was inadequate. This kit was made right, I'm thinking. Following the directions to apply per the bottle. I was skeptical about using a damp mit. I have done the entire cockpit area of the boat at this point with 6 coats and used maybe a half an inch of the product. And the boat looks absolutely AMAZING. Will this yellow? Will it last a year? IDK, but other reviews suggest positive experiences on both counts. Best of all, this will HALT the ongoing beating the topsides takes. (On another note, don't use this on nonskid. It's slick..just my opinion, maybe no more slick than new nonskid. But there is a really great product if you search "nonskid fiberglass surface restorer." Expensive but works.) Best description I can give you on how this will turn out is .. you know how good a surface that is aged looks when you wet it? That..but it stays. Yes, you will need 4-6 coats. But it dries very quickly and still doesn't use much product. At this performance level, the price was worth it. And I am frugal beyond belief. I would recommend that you do professionally buff any fiberglass surface with a good medium one step cutting compound and a professional buffer before you apply this to get best results. DO NOT USE THIS ON SURFACES THAT ALREADY ARE SHINY. It says so right on the kit. I also agree your smoothest outcome will come at room temp vs applying int the sun or significant heat. It dries quickly and doesn't even out as well before drying. Still, it will look great.

YOU WILL LOVE IT!!!
This is the best product I’ve ever used on our boat! We have a 26-year-old Tige wakeboard boat that had heavy oxidation and water spots. In addition to a heavily faded gel coat. I spent a few hours working on it and it completely restored our boat! I got the recommendation from my father in law after he used it on his RV. The results speak for themselves. I highly recommend this product!

Wish I Had Used This Sooner – Stop Debating and Just Buy It!
Wish I Had Used This Sooner – Stop Debating and Just Buy It! After a lot of debate, extensive research, and way too many hours spent buffing my RV with other products that never fully delivered the results I was after, I finally tried Poli Glow—and I am extremely happy I did. My only regret is not using it sooner instead of letting other people's opinions talk me out of it. The difference in how my RV looks after applying Poli Glow is genuinely impressive. The high-gloss finish it lays down on the fiberglass is deep, clean, and long-lasting in a way that the other products I tried simply could not match. The application process with the included mitt is straightforward and far less labor-intensive than traditional buffing and polishing methods, which alone makes it worth switching to. The hydrophobic properties mean water beads and rolls off beautifully, and knowing the UV protection is working to shield the fiberglass from the relentless Las Vegas sun gives real peace of mind for long-term appearance and protection. For anyone who has been going back and forth on whether to try Poli Glow or sticking with whatever you've been using—stop debating, stop listening to everyone else's opinion, and just try it. The results speak for themselves and I won't be using anything else on my RV going forward. Highest possible recommendation.

Works Great, A Lot of Elbow Greese, but Worth the Effort!
Transformed our motorhome exterior . It looks new, brighter, and no haze! It helped to watch the instruction videos on YouTube.
