38 oz axe from Estwing. Forged in one piece, so head and handle are the same bar of steel.
Most hammers fail where the head meets the handle. Estwing removes that joint entirely — the tool is forged from a single billet, so there is no wedge to work loose and no wooden neck to split when you miss and catch the shaft on a nail.
The one-piece build puts the balance in the head, where it does the work.
Forged in Rockford, Illinois, where the company has built striking tools since 1923.
