Extended Handle Advantage

The 22 inch handle increases striking power while maintaining control. You gain better leverage for splitting and chopping. The added length also supports two hand use for heavier tasks.

Traditional Skeggøx Geometry

The lowered beard extends the cutting edge and reduces overall head weight. You can choke up near the blade for carving and shaping. The profile reflects historical Scandinavian axe forms used for both work and utility.

Damascus Steel Performance

JW SteelCrafts forges layered high carbon steels under heat and pressure. This process strengthens the cutting edge and produces a distinct Damascus pattern. Each axe carries a unique forged surface.
