At 660 g (23.28 oz) it carries enough weight to move through green wood without forcing the cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCarving Axe 2 shares the same weight class at 650 g (22.93 oz) with a slightly narrower blade at 10 cm (3.94 in) and a longer handle at 31.5 cm (12.40 in) — a touch more reach and control for shaping work that requires precision at the end of the stroke.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCarving Axe 3 is the short-handle option. At 480 g (1.06 lb) and 22.5 cm (8.86 in) of handle it stays close and responsive — the axe that works in tight positions, removes material near the form, and stays precise where a longer tool would overcut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e• Materials: All axes are hand-forged from 52100 carbon steel, hardened to 59 HRC — steel that holds a working edge through extended sessions in green wood, hardwood, and softwood without chipping under lateral load.\u003cbr\u003e\n• Handles are shaped from ash, finished with natural oil.\u003cbr\u003e\n• Each axe comes with an individual hand-stitched leather sheath, riveted at the stress points.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCarving Axe 1\u003cbr\u003e\n— Blade Length: 11.5 cm (4.53 in)\u003cbr\u003e\n— Head Length: 13.5 cm (5.31 in)\u003cbr\u003e\n— Handle Length: 30.5 cm (12.01 in)\u003cbr\u003e\n— Weight: 660 g (23.28 oz)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCarving Axe 2\u003cbr\u003e\n— Blade Length: 10 cm (3.94 in)\u003cbr\u003e\n— Head Length: 13 cm (5.12 in)\u003cbr\u003e\n— Handle Length: 31.5 cm (12.40 in)\u003cbr\u003e\n— Weight: 650 g (22.93 oz)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCarving Axe 3\u003cbr\u003e\n— Blade Length: 10 cm (3.94 in)\u003cbr\u003e\n— Head Length: 12.5 cm (4.92 in)\u003cbr\u003e\n— Handle Length: 22.5 cm (8.86 in)\u003cbr\u003e\n— Weight: 480 g (1.06 lb)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CraftoriaShop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57111155343735,"sku":null,"price":249.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/3952\/8823\/files\/il_fullxfull.8075461245_amg1.jpg?v=1779399952","url":"https:\/\/www.craftoriashop.com\/products\/hand-forged-carving-hatchet-carbon-steel-52100-blades-ash-handles-leather-sheaths","provider":"CraftoriaShop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
