A steel axe 18.28m 60ft long, 7m 23ft wide and weighing 7tonnes was designed and built by BID Ltd of Woodstock, New Brunswick, Canada. The axe was presented to the town of Nackawic, New Brunswick on 11 May 1991 to commemorate the towns selection as Forestry Capital of Canada for 1991. Calculations suggested it would take a 140-tonne (308,647 lb) lumberjack to swing the axe, but a crane was used to lift it into its concrete stump.
