Axe JUCO 1.5 kg wooden haft 700 mm model 12315L is a hand axe designed for chopping, splitting small logs and general outdoor or garden work. The tool combines a 1.5 kg solid steel head with a 700 mm wooden haft to provide a balance between cutting power and control. The wooden haft absorbs shock and offers a traditional ergonomic grip suited to repeated use in light forestry and household tasks.

Advantages

The axe head is forged from solid steel to deliver consistent impact and edge retention for chopping and splitting small-diameter wood. A 700 mm wooden haft provides reach and leverage while helping dampen vibrations during swings. The overall weight distribution and compact head size make the tool manageable for users who need a reliable hand axe without heavy mass. The simple construction supports easy maintenance and replacement of the haft when necessary.

Suitable for

• Chopping small to medium logs and branches
• Splitting kindling and firewood for home use
• Garden clearance and light landscaping tasks
• Camping and outdoor wood preparation
• Light forestry and property maintenance

Key specifications

• Head weight: 1.5 kg
• Haft material: wood (shock-absorbing traditional handle)
• Haft length: 700 mm
• Head material: solid steel

How to use

Grip the wooden haft with both hands, keeping the dominant hand near the base and the other hand closer to the head for control. Position the wood on a stable chopping block and swing the axe in a controlled motion, allowing the weight of the 1.5 kg head to deliver the cutting force. For splitting, aim at existing cracks or use the axe to create a starter split before widening it with additional strikes. After use, clean any sap or debris from the head and inspect the haft connection for tightness.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as eye protection, gloves and sturdy footwear. Keep the cutting edge sharp and free of nicks; sharpen with a file or whetstone following the original bevel angle. Store the axe in a dry place to prevent wooden haft swelling or head corrosion. Replace the wooden haft if it shows cracks, looseness or significant wear to maintain safe operation.
