Pickaroon
A pickaroon (or ''picaroon'') is a wood-handled, metal-topped log handling tool.〔http://www.popularmechanics.com/home/reviews/outdoor-tools/how-to-handle-five-extreme-tools-pickaroon#slide-2〕 It is distinguished from a pike pole by having a shorter handle, no metal point, and an opposite curve to its hook (toward the handle rather than away); and from both a cant hook and peavey by having a fixed hook facing its handle rather than a pivoting one facing away. A pickaroon with a down-turned point on its hook is known as a ''sappie'' or ''hookaroon'';〔http://axehistory.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=34〕 one with an axe blade opposite its hook an ''axaroon'', obviating the need to carry two tools to manage logs.〔http://www.pickaroon.com/products.htm〕 Though it may be spelled the same, the tool is not to be confused with the 17th-century term for pirate, ''picaroon''.〔 〕 ==See also==
* Picaroons Traditional Ales – A New Brunswick brewer named after the common logging tool. 〔 〕
