It is "time tested and logger approved"! American Hickory is the most sought after wood material to use for your axes and tomahawks. All the premium Swedish and German axe makers import American Hickory for their handles and proudly advertise it. We selected Hickory because it will take more abuse than maple or birch or ash. And on top of that, it is much more affordable. Basic Facts of American Hickory Hickory Is Ergonomically Better For Comfort And Stress Reduction Hickory logs produce the best handles and are selected for their heavy weight, and straight grain. The U.S. Forest Products Lab has found no difference in white or red hickory's strength. Therefore, the best hickory handles may be white, red or a mixture of both. Hickory is a natural shock absorber and has excellent strength for tool handles. Why Straight Grained Wood? Grain refers to the direction of the "veins" of the wood. Wood will split easier if you are cutting in the direction of the grain. When chopping wood you try to cut along the grain to split the wood. If you were to use cross grain handles it just wouldn't make sense for throwing (they would break much easier). By selling only straight grain handles we are offering you the most durable handles available. Why Wax Coated Handles? Our handles are unique to our tomahawks. They are sanded smooth and then given a wax coating. This wax coating prolongs the life of your tomahawk handle, provides a more secure grip, and prevents splintering for an extended period. More About Throwing Tomahawks Tomahawks are increasing in popularity among outdoor enthusiasts.
