Now on axe handle #4 for this 6yo axe. Gotta say this is my best fit yet. I had to visit several hardware stores till I found a straight and tight grained piece of wood with a proper kerf cut. Fit is about perfect after the insertion of the boiled linseed oil soaked wood wedge and the metal wedges.
This also gave me the chance to refinish the head, gave it a good sharpening and some nice red spray paint. The handle is silky smooth after sanding and the first of several boiled linseed applications.
The axe is better then new!
