Good stick, a little thick but that gives you room to trim to your liking. Grain orientation seems to range from very good to acceptable.
I will like if they offered a 26" version.
Thanks Chris, glad they are working well for you. Just as listed #2 grade do not have perfect grain, but might at some spot through out the length. We do have a 28' handle, but not a 26' at the moment.
Handle came quickly and was good quality. I was able to hang the axe handle within a half hour and now have my axe working again.
I'm very pleased with your website and the information it provides. I had two axe heads that needed handles as well as two hatchets. I didn't know there were so many different types and sizes. Figuring what I needed, reviewing my options, placing my order, etc was a snap. Communication after my order was placed was very good and shipping info was dead on accurate.
24" Beaver Tooth Hudson Bay / Boys Axe Handle Very good craftsmanship. Purchased on a recommendation from Buckin Billy Ray on one his YouTube videos. It’s a small business, so don’t expect Amazon delivery times. Patience is a virtue! Highly recommended.
First off, I am happy with the handle I received! My personal preference on axe handles is biased toward a thinner cross profile. The same for the palm swell, I feel it could be a touch flatter for more positive control of the cutting head. After tax and shipping I balked momentarily at the amount I was dropping on an axe handle, however, as I unboxed the handle it was immediately clear I had paid for top quality! The grain runout on the handle is practically perfect! This handle will compliment the head that adorns it resulting in a fine tool to be used for many years to come. I will definately look to Beaver Tooth in the future for my tool handles!

I’ve been trying to find a handle that fits a Norlund Hudson Bay axe that my father and grandfather repeatedly beat back on the handle with a claw hammer and, with a little work on the axe head and handle, I finally have a working tool again. I did crack the kerf a pounding in the metal wedge, but that’s because I couldn’t find my round metal wedges and just wanted to get the project done. That’s totally not the handle’s issue at all! She’ll still ride for sure!
An awesome product. I’m very pleased with the quality of the handle. It fit perfectly to an old (“experienced”) axe head. I flamed the handle slightly before sealing with boiled linseed oil to bring out a little of the grain. A photo is attached. Just to confirm my satisfaction with Beaver Tooth, I've already ordered another handle for another vintage axe head. Many thanks...
The best out there. Go for the more expensive option. Easy install. Thanks Beaver. Keep gnawing!
This was supposedly a flaw but I couldn't find one if there was one. It worked great for the old Craftsman single bit axe head that I found at a flea market. I did a burn in finish to bring out the grain and to give the bottom of the handle some character, and then finished it with linseed oil. I am really happy with this and would purchase again!
Handle fit like a sock on my foot. Put it on a Worth head. Have already put it to use. Feels great!
Really like the handle. Axe head fits perfect. Tried other Chinese made crap handles prior to this - all junk. Glad I found your web site!
Picked up 3 of these handles for Christmas orders, one of the handles was damaged upon receipt. Beaver tooth had a new handle on the way next day! Beautiful combos of heartwood and sapwood. I've been forging axes for years and Beaver Tooth is one of my go-to's
Great form and high quality hickory. Store bought really doesn’t compare. Just placed another order for two more handles. Couldn’t be happier with the craftsmanship. Some customers may have a hard time waiting a couple weeks for their order to arrive but, great things take time to create. Thank you Beaver Tooth Handle Co.
Bought the last 2 remaining 24 inch boy’s axe handles. They were identified as lowest grade and were priced to sell at $4 each. I would have preferred higher grade because I try to sell my axes and know that many potential buyers will not buy an axe with poor grain orientation or runoff. But I had recently bought a 2 1/4 pound =Craftsman= head and wanted a 24 inch handle for this size head. Since no other company to my knowledge made 24 inch handles, I bought these last two. Both handles had decent grain orientation but Significant grain runoff. Hung one handle and used the axe to split a little stove wood and kindling. It feels great. No sign of any problems. I will use this axe with confidence and think it will last for several years. But I hope BT will make some better grade Handles soon.
I picked up the 24” boys axe handle to hang on my camp axe. The description said Good #2 with blems, but I gotta be honest and say that I can’t really detect any blems on this handle. The grain is tight and the handle is sturdily built. Undoubtedly this handle will last a lot longer than I will. This will be a great piece to hand down to Sons or Grandsons. Very pleased with this purchase and wholeheartedly recommend Beaver-Tooth Handle Company for high quality hard wood American made handle products.
These handles are perfect for my norland and Collins. High quaility and great fit . Thanks.
Absolutely in love with the craftsmanship and the look of these handles. Beaver Tooth does an amazing job and these handles were exactly the size and shape I needed for several projects. Thanks so much Beaver Tooth Handle Co!
Great handle, used it for a Collins boys axe and it worked great, came in great condition with awesome grain orientation!
This Collins axe belonged to my father and I don’t remember it ever having a handle. Had no luck locating a handle that would fit locally. The handle high quality and an excellent fit. Also ordered a sheath to complete the project. Think my Dad would be happy with the result.
The Hickory handles from Beaver Tooth are top notch!
Shipping was a little longer than expected, but they always are around the holidays
I’m extremely impressed with the quality of Beaver Tooth. This will be the only place I buy axe handles for now on!! This was a re hang I did for a coworker. Flawless fit!
All the handles that I purchased were amazing much better than anything you could find mass produced at the big box stores. I will definitely be ordering from them again.
