How to use

Remove the old handle using appropriate tools and clean the hatchet head eye. Fit the wooden handle into the head by aligning the tapered end with the eye and tapping it gently until fully seated. Secure the head with a wooden or metal wedge as appropriate and trim any protruding material. Sand and finish the handle surface to remove sharp edges and apply oil or protective coating if desired to increase durability and moisture resistance. Verify tightness before first use and recheck periodically during use.

Usage recommendations

Use protective gloves and eye protection when fitting and using the hatchet. Ensure the head is firmly fixed to the handle before performing any chopping. Store the handle and assembled tool in a dry place and periodically treat the wood with oil to maintain strength and appearance.
