Carpenter's Axe SY 21-0,8 SV, 800 g

HU-840304

Blasted and clear-lacquered ironwork with a notch in the head near the shaft, allowing you to hold a hand directly above the edge while

cutting. The shaft is curved and made from hickory.

  • The axe is hand-forged and made from Swedish axe steel using traditional methods in use since 1697.
  • The steel is struck several times, increasing its density and thereby the durability of the axe.
  • Has a clear tempered zone within which the axe can be sharpened whilst not detracting from the strength of the edge.
  • The shaft is made from hickory and treated with linseed oil.
  • Weight: 800 g
  • Shaft length: 500 mm (20 in.)
  • Surface axe head: Blasted

A carpenter's axe edge profile gives you precision. Here is the 0.8kg head:

Outstanding service, no frills axe

First I’d like to praise Axeman for their outstanding service and selection/prices. I’ve scoured de web looking for HB axes and was glad to find a family company with better prices than Amazon. Plus they shipped my order within hours after payment.
Now for the axe, it delivers a lot of bite and control and the edge will hold (if you use it as intended). The reason I gave the review 4 stars is because if you don’t buy the HB’s “premium” line, you don’t get the same care with the axe & haft finish that you can find in mass produced axes, like the Husqvarna’s, which are cheaper in the US but also Swedish steel. Not a big deal for people who like to customize their tools, but my haft came with rasp marks, raised grain, curls at each cheek, and minute anterior/posterior gaps around the eye. I’m considering re-hafting it with a custom 24” haft and transform my carpenter axe into a lower budget Aby (HB’s forest axe).
