I’ve looked at madoxes and bought one from the orange box. The one from the orange box bent when I used the side that isn’t an ax to pry on some roots. Seems like all the madoxes are junk around here.
To me a madox is a pick that has an ax on one side and a blade for hard ground on the other like an adze.
Anyone know where I can get a good one for a reasonable price?

Buddy from out west brought his Pulaski he used for wildfire work.
Better steel and better tempering. This looks like what he has:
