Yep. I was going maniac on the elderberry tree ... a seperate occasion to the one below, that tree grew like you wouldn't believe .... and the door went so I tramped through the house, hair all over, out of breath and sweaty (and just a little grubby) and opened the door to a council workman.

My Steve did something similar. He had been out back splitting firewood when he heard a truck drive up. So he kept the ax in his hand, not even thinking about it, as he went around the corner of the house to see who was there. It was the telephone company about the wires, and it took some doing to convince them that he was not crazy, and they could go up on top of the shed and mount the wire they wanted to put up. When the guy walked around the house toward the shed, and saw the woodpile and the chopping block, he laughed with relief.

Not an axe, but I recall one Halloween when I got shanghied by a Kirby salesman. We all know how pushy they are. I was getting the kids ready to go out trick or treating, and I was dressed as Hunter Thompson; shooting glasses, bottle of Wild Turkey, a grapefruit and machete as props, complete with cigarette holder. After the third "not interested", I began waving the machete around, ranting and raving while pacing in a circle. The salesman couldn't pack up fast enough and eventually RAN out of my house. My wife was afraid I'd be arrested, but we scored lots of candy that year.

I have answered the door with a carving knife in my hand.
I was making the tea when the door bell went and being in a world of my own I just answered it. The window cleaner went white.

After roaring with laughter over your description..I had to think for a moment. And I do believe I have. It was a long time ago, and I was splitting a bit of kindling when somebody came to the door. I cannot recall who or why..but I do seem to remember they didn't stay long..I wonder why..maybe the red oil I had used to lubricate the blade as I sharpened it gave them the wrong idea...{shrugs shoulders} I dunno...

I've not done it with an axe but i did do it with a chefs knife that was full of blood and had bits of meat attached and i was wearing an apron covered in blood to a salesman. i was in the middle of de-boning a leg of lamb . his face was a picture especially when i told him it was the last cold caller who knocked on !
