Helko Werk Traditional Bavarian Woodworker Axe Germany

Bavarian Traditional Cutting Axe

Handcrafted in Germany

The Bavarian Woodworker is a full-size traditional German cutting axe, renowned for its robust construction and exceptional performance in heavy felling work.

High-Quality Components

• Rheinland Pattern Head: The 3 ½ lb. axe head features a sharp, slim, wide-bit blade, outperforming most American pattern felling axes in cutting tasks. This design draws inspiration from Germany’s famous Rhein River Valley, a region with a centuries-long tradition of using cutting axes like these.
• C50 High Carbon Steel: The axe head is made from German C50 high-grade carbon steel, which, thanks to its 53-56 HRC hardness, offers durability and sharpness. Hand-crafted through open-face drop forgings, each blade is individually shaped by expert blacksmiths using traditional methods.

Superior Handle Design

• Grade A American Hickory Handle: The handle is crafted from sustainably sourced grade A American hickory, ensuring strength and resilience. Each handle is individually finished with a boiled linseed oil finish and sanded to 150 grit, resulting in a comfortable and smooth grip.
• Linseed Oil Finish: The boiled linseed oil finish not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also provides a protective layer that ensures longevity and comfort when handling the axe.

Premium Accessories

• Full Grain Leather Sheath: Protect your axe blade and head with a premium vegetable-tanned leather sheath, designed to withstand the rigors of outdoor use.
• Axe Guard Oil: Included with every axe is a 1 oz bottle of Axe Guard protective oil. This oil helps maintain the steel of your axe head over time, preventing rust and preserving its integrity.
