i have a gransfors american felling axe, hell of an axe. would strongly recommend any of their products. i've seen wetterlings in action too and they seem pretty solid

yes, i've seen the husqvarna axes too and they seem pretty good especially for the price range. get a stihl saw

yes! i love silky saws. personally those two you posted at the bottom look a little large for my taste but might be sensible if you live in an area with significant tree diameter.

anybody ever get into making your own knives? it's easy and fun, you can do it with just a mill bastard file and an oven or a charcoal fire if you really want to. (obviously it's nice to have a few more tools but you really don't need to spend more than like 20$ at the most to get started). sometimes the knife that's best for you is one you make yourself!
