Very good white hickory with straight grain and no lacquer or polyurethane. Perfect for my splitting maul. Easy to work down to fit the eye and after a couple coats of boiled linseed oil it is perfect.

Great for pledge or maul

This handle isn’t like your typical hardware store handle. It actually has really straight grain. The white hickory handle is sanded smooth and due to the quarter sawing should last a lifetime. I place this handle in my 6# hammer head and didn’t have to rasp away any of the end of the handle. If I had to do over again I would buy this again.

The handle fit my sledgehammer great. You have to be patient about the delivery time. It was worth the wait.

very nice handle worth the money
