Weekly wisdom with Hank for our niche fire fighter x hunting audience. This one is serious.

You’re going to love your leather radio strap from Axe and Awl so much you won’t want to take it off, but we advise against wearing the blue painted ones when hunting white tail this fall. Never lose the element of surprise.

Our in-house made C&S Provisions candles, now merchandised under glass cloches so you can actually experience them before you buy.

Here's how it works in store: lift the dome, let the scent breathe for a second, then take a slow inhale right over the jar. That's Coffee and Leather and Nightcap (whiskey, to***co, and a hint of cannabis) waiting for you at the Waynesville shop.

Stop by and give them a smell yourself.

One of our most popular radio strap builds is the veg tanned lining offering. Adding a layer of 2/3 oz vegetable tanned undyed leather to the inside provides extra strength and makes for one heck of a strap. For anyone wearing a light colored uniform this also prevents any dye leach during break in which can happen from time to time.

Glued and sewn together this option is a top choice amongst people seeking the most premium option there is.
