28" Boys / Half Axe / Hudson Bay Axe Handle American Hickory Single Bit

Fit my Norland Hudson Bay axe perfectly. I was disappointed to break the original but this beautifully made, lightweight, and solid replacement actually feels better than the original.

I ordered in the Large eye sledge, grub hoe and boys axe handles. Minimal fitting needed. Fun project for a Saturday morning.

Great axe handle made right here in the USA. Arrived within a couple weeks and fit exactly like it was supposed to. Never replaced a handle before...but that didn’t slow me down. Easy peasy lemon squeezey if you know what I mean. Always feels great buying well made American products. Will not disappoint. 5 stars all day long.

Nice piece of hickory.

I apparently ordered the wrong eye dimensions as the 9/16" width was loose in the head.

I thought I could make it work but needed too much wood wedge. Handle couldn't handle it and split below the eye.

HB head was not a boy's axe apparently.

Live and learn. Still usable for this light head.

Almost 20 years ago, after my Dad passed, my Mom gave me a bunch of his old tools. One of them was and old Collins ax with a broken handle. I looked for a handle at the local hardware stores, but I couldn't find a handle to fit my ax. I set it in a corner and forgot about it. A month or so ago I came across it and wanted to fix it. I found Beaver-Tooth online, and they had the right handle. It fits tight and feels good in my hands. Thanks Beaver-Tooth for bringing my Dad's old ax back to life. This old ax wouldn't mean much to most people, but it means a lot to me.

Great looking handle and sheath. Looks great with my grandpa's old axe head. I'll be back again soon.... just need to find more axe heads.

Too often when I purchase replacement axe handles they come with a coating of polyurethane or shellacking that I need to sand off. This is important because the wood needs to be able to soak in the oil I treat the handles with to get a snug fit. And then after fitting the axe head (after much sanding) the handle needs to be thinned because it is far too thick for me to get a comfortable tight grip.
But not the handles I got from Beaver tooth! They are free of shellacking and a nice thin handle with a comfortable taper at the but of the axe handle. I needed to do minimal sanding for a nice fit and the wood soaked up the linseed oil perfectly. That axe head is not coming off and it is a very comfortable grip.
My only complaint would be that I found the metal wedge to be on the large side for that particular (smaller eyed) axe head. But other than that, it was a perfect axe handle that needed minimal shaping and the grain orientation on the hickory handle was one of the best for replacement handles I've seen! Love this purchase! I will surely be purchasing all my axe handles (or any other replacement handles) from Beaver Tooth. I am very impressed with this purchase and for a very fair price! Thank you Beaver Tooth!

I am very impressed with the quality of the product I received. Not only did it fit with very minimal modification, but it also had great grain orientation and a palm swell that you don't find with handles from your typical hardware store. I will use Beaver-Tooth for all of my future handle and sheath needs from now on.

5 stars. This #2 blem is better than anything I can find local in Okc for this half axe. I can't even tell what the defect of this handle is, for a little camp axe this is perfect. I'll be buying all my tool handle from you guys. Select/#1's for me next time, they must be near perfect. Seeing this one and knowing that this is what you consider a #2 is impressive. This blem has taught me more about your company than buying a "select" would have.

Excellent product quality and a perfect fit. I wish it had included 2 metal wedges instead of one but that is just personal preference. I will certainly purchase from Beaver-Tooth again when needed. extremely satisfied with my purchase.

Nice looking handle. It was a bit small for the head space but after I fill the space with the wedge, splits of wood, and epoxy, it will be fine. I'm going to reshape the rest of the handle to match an old one that I have, and the small amount of wood that I pare off with a draw knife can be used to to fill the spaces.

The handles are made of good material and were as described.

This is a great handle on its own. However, it really punches above its weight class when you consider the price. A timely delivery and Uber friendly service is the cherry on top

Handle feels great, looks great and was easy to hang ace head on! My son loves it! Great company and product! Might take a while to get your order but we’ll worth the wait!!!

Both good quality items! Looking forward hanging an old axe head. I will taylor the handle and sheath a bit more for personal preference. But good inexpensive stock to begin with. Thanks!

I ordered 2 handles for some boys axe heads. They arrived without issue. The handles look really good and they came with a wax coating.

I have received really cool axe handles from beaver tooth.

Great

Excellent quality, it couldn't be better.

Excellent handle with great grain orientation. nice palm swell, plenty of material in the neck.

I'll buy from this company again. its impossible to find handles this good locally.

I've heard great things about Beaver tooth handles and decided to try them out, and am not disappointed. These handles are high quality wood and have great shape.

Highly recommend.

I found an axe head in my Dad’s workshop, that needed a handle. The beaver tooth handle arrived exactly as described an fit perfectly. I was easily able to restore an heirloom to usefulness.

Great axe handle. Good grain, fits my axe head. Excellent price

Great communication and products. Purchased two...bot high quality~! Very much appreciated~!!!

Beautiful Handle, perfect grain, but unfortunately the only axe head this handle could possible fit is a tiny hatchet. Neither my vintage Collins or Plumb boys axes' eyes were even close to being small enough for this handle to be a safe haft. The eye fitting was identical to the 16" hatchet handle I ordered. I have never seen a Boys axe with a hatchet eye. I was very disappointed considering the cost and time for delivery. Further more I am a bit disappointed for the waste of perfectly good but now near useless hickory.
