Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer personalized engraving or gift boxes?
Yes, we offer custom engraving on handles and gift box options for select products. Please check the product page description for available personalization and gift packaging options.
Are your products handmade?
Yes, all of our axes, hatchets, axe heads, knives, cigar cutters, and damascus steel billets are handcrafted by skilled artisans using traditional forging techniques.
What steel grades do you use for your products?
Most products are forged from 1095 high carbon steel. Our Damascus steel products are made from a combination of 1095 and 15N20 steel.
What is the difference between an axe and a hatchet?
An axe typically has a handle length of 20–36 inches and is designed for heavy chopping, splitting, and felling tasks. A hatchet usually measures 10–18 inches, making it lighter, more portable, and ideal for camping, bushcraft, kindling, and general outdoor use. For more information, see our Axe vs. Hatchet Buying Guide.
How do I care for and sharpen an axe or knife?
Keep the blade clean and dry after use, and apply a light coat of oil regularly to help prevent rust. Sharpen your axe or knife with a sharpening stone or file as needed to maintain optimal cutting performance.
What is damascus steel and why is it popular?
Damascus steel is made by forge-welding multiple layers of steel (typically 1095 and 15N20) together. This process creates a strong, durable blade with excellent edge retention and distinctive flowing patterns, making each piece both functional and visually unique.
Do you accept custom or bulk orders?
Yes, we accept custom orders for axe heads and billets, as well as bulk orders for businesses and special projects.
