This the 32-inch American hickory handle with both a steel and wooden wedge. A great axe for practicing the standing chop, or as a workhorse for felling and splitting.
This axe head is hand-forged and made from Swedish axe steel in a foundry that has been in operation since 1697.
As part of the hand grinding production process, the steel is struck multiple times thereby increasing its density and resulting in more durability of the axe.
This head is constructed in such a way that there is a tempered zone designed to hold a very sharp edge even after many sharpening.
The curved hickory handle is treated with linseed oil. Each axe comes with a traditional leather protective sheath.
