Description
Our Sculpture axe is a very good friend to have when removing a lot of material, and at the same time having high precision, like when sculpting. The weight indicates axe head and handle. The handle is made by ash wood. The total weight might vary because wood is a living material that can have different density and characteristics, even though we make sure all handles have the same humidity.
The difference between our Sculpture axe 0,8 kg and Carving axe 0,75 kg is a lot more than just the 500 grams of weight difference. The Sculpture axe 0,8 kg has got almost no edge curvature, along with distinct forward point and back point. It has a properly forged and deep beard, which places your guiding hand close to the centre of mass, and therefore gives you high control. You can also work with the Sculpting axe similar to a chisel, when just holding the head and the blade. The Sculpture axe has a more straight handle compared to the Carving axe 0,75 kg.

An axe, adze or hammer head seldom come loose. But it can happen. Wood is a living material. The most common reason is moisture. For example: The axe have been stored outside and then get inside in a warm and dry place. The wood then get smaller/shrink. The number one advice: Hit the wedge!
