When you look at this really great little hunters axe consider that the basic design is adapted from hand axes issued to the foragers of the Roman Legions. Those hand axes were used for cutting the fascines used for building fortified camps as the Legions marched through enemy country. The attention to quality reminds one of the work of master swordmaker Adrea Farrara of 16th Century Venice. The material of this super light and handy little axe is high carbon stainless cutlery steel from the most modern of Sweden's steel mills. The European Ash handle is shaped to enable you to work hour after hour making the most of the 5-1/2" cutting edge of this remarkable tool. Less than 15 oz. in weight and only 13-1/2" from end to end. Comes with it's own leather sheath, at about half the price you would expect to pay for such a high quality and useful tool.
