Biber Classic Swedish Carpenter's Hatchet (Center Grind) by Mueller

The broad axe, also known as a hewing axe, is designed for hewing logs into square timbers. This Broad Axe is beveled on both sides, giving you more versatility. The edge is razor-sharp, having been honed on a water-cooled sharpening stone at the forge. The head weighs 3-1/4 lbs, and the face is 7-3/8" wide. The premium-grade 23" long hickory handle is lightly waxed and safety-wedged to the axe head.

The Broad Axe has been hand-forged by the skilled blacksmiths of the family-owned Leonhard Mueller & Soehne at the Himmelsberger Zeughammerwerk in Austria, using high-grade steel and carefully hardened and tempered for the best combination of hardness and toughness. Mueller Axes have a long and well-deserved reputation for being highly functional tools of uncompromising quality and workmanship.

Highly skilled craftsmen combine modern-day techniques with artistry passed down from many generations of blacksmiths. The Biber Classic is Mueller's premium line, featuring quality hickory handles and a classic forged finish. You can trust the quality of Mueller's tools because they think enough of them to put a lifetime warranty on every one.

Besides being used for hewing, the center-grind broad axe is a truly versatile tool. Many craftsmen also use them for carving, and some people believe they make great kindling and splitting axes. You can enjoy owning and using these beautiful axes for generations to come!

All of Mueller's axes are hand-forged in Austria, dating back to the 1600s, ensuring true quality.
