Adzes continue to be useful in artisanal woodworking tasks such as beam-making and sculpture. Adzes were used by woodworkers for cutting and trimming rough wooden planks and shaping and smoothing wooden surfaces. Archaeologists have found stone-relief sculptures of Egyptian boat-makers using the tool, and indigenous tribes of the Pacific Northwest used the Adze for both the practical (canoes) and the ceremonial/artistic (masks and totem poles). Shipwrights, carpenters, and railroaders all had their own version of it.
