Someone is going to own one of a kind hatchet!There are very small and aged marks on the bit, almost hard to see.
They show that the hatchet is a vintage tool.By making this purchase you are taking full responsibility for proper and safe handling.
I am not responsible for any of your accidents. I used both - a solid wood wedge with epoxy and a metal wedge for setting the head.
It got a very tight and beautiful fit.
SHEATH I hand-crafted the Sheath out of Premium Leather, custom fitted specifically for this axe.
An image of a mountain and birds make a nice complement to the whole tool.
I'm also including the original sheath that was made by the company.
It has a stamp on the sheath of a man in the canoe and "NORLUND" under the canoe.
The Sheath protects you from accidental cuts and makes it safer during handling. HANDLE The handle is custom carved out of one piece of solid Northern Birch.
It's a very smooth and comfortable wood.
Up in Europe alot of people used this kind of wood for hatchet's handles.
A beautiful FOX with PHEASANT is carved out on both sides of the handle.
I oil painted the carving and gave extra layers of varnish for extra protection.
Check out the photos - it’s so unique and beautiful. I hand sanded the handle to a very nice, smooth texture.The handle has a very comfortable grip design and it fits perfectly in adult hand. A nice, deep layer of stain was applied to give the hatchet a beautiful look.
