How to use

Fit the axe head onto the wooden handle by inserting the tapered end through the axe eye until the head seats firmly on the shoulder of the handle. Trim any excess wood above the eye if necessary, then secure the head with appropriate wedges and a metal or hardwood peg following standard fitting procedures. Inspect the fit before each use and re-tighten or replace wedges if any movement is detected. Use the handle for chopping and splitting within the specified head weight range to maintain safe balance and performance.

Usage recommendations

Before first use, treat the wooden handle with linseed oil or a similar protective finish to reduce moisture uptake and extend service life. Store the axe in a dry place away from direct sunlight and inspect the handle regularly for cracks, splits, or loose fittings. Replace the handle if damage affects structural integrity or safe operation.
