How to use

Securely grip the wooden handle with both hands and adopt a stable stance before swinging. Aim for controlled, accurate strikes on the intended cutting point, using the axe's weight to deliver force rather than excessive muscular effort. For splitting, place smaller logs on a stable surface and strike the end grain. Keep hands clear of the blade path and avoid overreaching. Inspect the handle and head connection before each use to ensure the head is tight and correctly seated.

Usage recommendations

Maintain the cutting edge by regular sharpening with a file or sharpening stone and protect the wooden handle with periodic oiling to prevent drying and cracking. Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves and eye protection, and store the axe in a dry place away from direct moisture to prolong service life.
