Description
2 lb. Hudson Bay Axe head outfitted with a curved hickory handle. Two-handed camp axe, 28" overall length . Used for light splitting, chopping, driving tent pegs, etc. The pattern is thought to have originated from “Biscayan” in Northern Spain, near France. French traders used this hand axe as a trade tool in their dealings with Native Americans for fur and other commodities in the Hudson Bay area, St. Lawrence River, and other trade routes.
Forged tool steel head.
Made in USA.
Hand sharpened, tapered bit for cutting and light splitting.
ANSI Standards call for bit hardness of Rc 45-60, at least ½ inch back from the cutting edge. Council Tool internal standards call for tempered bit hardness of Rc 48-55 and we target 1-1/4 inches from the cutting edge. The poll and eye walls are not hardened and remain in the as forged condition.
Head coated with black enamel and the cutting edge in clear lacquer to deter rust.
American hickory handle. Eye section is dried to below 10% moisture content to minimize shrinkage and help prevent loosening.
Axe head is hydraulically seated onto handle and secured in a traditional manner with a wooden wedge and a round steel wedge.
The interior detail of the eye is tapered and allows for a strong mechanical bond. Approximately 2" of the handle is removed during assembly making the overall length of the tool 26?.
