User questions & answers

Question:	Does this come with the heirloom box or is it not the heirloom axe
Answer:	Made in China
Question:	Is the poll forged
Answer:	No, this thing is really designed to finely chop, you would really need a countertop mixer to make pie dough
Question:	Does this axe come sharpened or do you have to sharpen it yourself
Answer:	Yes
Question:	Is this a velvicut? Description is pathetic and the product number doesn't match Council's website
Answer:	Grasp the handle at the base near the lid and pull straight up away from the lid. There will be some resistance because it fits tightly on the turning shaft. Be gentle but firm and it will come off. Note to the Oxo people; the manual for this product mentions that the handle is removable for storage but does not explain how it should be removed. It should. It's not as obvious as the designers think.

• Premium Hickory Axe Handle Stops Slips: As soon as the flame-hardened hickory handle hits your hand you’ll know this is a competition-ready throwing axe you can trust; Using long-grain cuts of American Hickory, each handle is hand-turned and then fire-roasted for maximum durability that won’t split, splinter or shatter - your handle is then sanded and lacquered for a smooth feel that stops blisters and ends the embarrassment of slipped throws

Amazing Versatility - Multifunctional Axe

Primarily designed to be used as a throwing axe. The beauty of a 19 inch handle is that it's the perfect length for use as a one or two hand axe! Axe throwing clubs take note - this is one the best axes to throw out there. Works excellent as a camping or multifunction hatchet as well. Blade edge is soft enough to avoid shattering when thrown, and hard enough to hold the professionally sharpened edge.

Friction Fit Head with No Set Screws

A Throwing Axe shouldn’t have a set screw to secure the head to the handle. Ask any professional thrower (or see reviews) and they’ll tell you a friction fit head to handle is the way to go. Your throwing hawk will last longer and so will your handle.

Leather Blade Cover Included

Don't Worry! Each axe comes with a leather sheath.

Caution!: Each blade is professionally sharpened to ensure maximum penetration under current axe throwing rules and regulations. They come extremely sharp right out of the box - be careful when handling.

Premium A Grade American Hickory Handle

A hatchet handle is going to break eventually. But you aren’t helping yourself if you buy handles made from mediocre or low grade wood. Our handles are premium A grade USA American hickory, cut and turned along the wood grain (straight grain handles are stronger), sanded smooth, then fire hardened, and finished with a thick coat of lacquer.

Meets Most Axe Throwing League Standards

Axe throwing clubs and leagues are popping up throughout the nation. This throwing axe meets most axe throwingl eague requirements (including WATL). Typically requirements are:

• 4 inch max blade edge
• 3 lb max overall weight
• 12-19" overall length

These BLADED throwing axes are perfectly suited for backyard throwing as well as axe throwing clubs.

• The Adler Yankee Axe is an ideal forester’s axe for felling medium to large sized trees. It’s also a great all-purpose companion on the farm or ranch.

User questions & answers

Question:	what is the thickness of the blade on this hatchet
Answer:	Yes. the one piece steel handle extends full length of the grip.
Question:	Does this come with a leather sheath
Answer:	It is forged, the steel shouldn´t be judged as a knife steel. It should be high carbon, but the particles of a forged steel are forced together mecanically during forging process not chemically by heating during tempering process as a knife. You should think of it as a hammer more than as a knife. it is more likely simmilar to the RMJ tomahawk than to others made out of knife steel, like the ontario rangers, if you are looking for a cutting tool this is not it. it is more like a rock hammer much like the ones used by the geologists. Need less to say, i think it is the best option as a work tool for personnel in service since the equivalent (RMJ) is over 650USD. I hope this helps.
Question:	what is the Rockwell hardness on the blade
Answer:	It’s very good for fighting aliens. I’ve used it to chop apart greys when they tried to abduct me for a probe examination.
Question:	Is this a good personal defense Tomahawk
Answer:	Not sure, but the foot lotion for me makes my skin really dry and not sure I would put that under my tender arms as I would be afraid of chafing skin. Might be uncomfortable.
Question:	Is this item full tang
Answer:	Carpe was specifically made to help manage the sweating caused by hyperhidrosis of the hands and feet, also known as palmar and plantar, or palmoplantar hyperhidrosis. Hyperhidrosis causes moist hands and feet through sweating, and Carpe can be a huge help in reducing this sweating! If the blisters are caused from sweating, Carpe will stop the sweat, which will also stop the blisters!
Question:	What kind of steel do you use for this tomahawk
Answer:	Aluminum sesquichlorohydrate..small print. I needed to use a magnifying glass. forms of aluminum are found in antiperspirants. They temporarily blocked sweat ducts thus stop sweating. This active ingredient is more potent because the product has to be absorbed through thicker Issues with the use cancer, Alzheimer's. Read about it online.
Question:	Is this a good weapon to fight aliens
Answer:	Nope! We realized folks loved using Carpe on their feet, so we just formally made a separate line to simplify discussion and feedback. As we continue to develop future formula revisions, the two products may diverge, but at the moment, both are exactly the same, and sell at the same price for the same amount.

The made in the U.S.A. Gibson Axe was designed by James Gibson as a small, compact axe that will easily fit in a backpack. Gibson’s stated goal was a comfortable using tool that could do most camp chores, as well as being used as a carving axe. The Viking bearded head allows for close up work and the finger grooves / textured scales along with the swell on the end provides an excellent gripping surface when chopping.

Care/Maintenance: ESEE carbon steel knives are made from 1095 steel. 1095 is a top choice for professional cutlery designed for hard use, it will rust and stain if not properly cared for – especially on the cutting edge and around the laser engraving.

User questions & answers

Question:	How do you get it out of the sheath?? I unsnapped the one snap but still can not get it out
Answer:	The bits are symmetrical. This tool is not adequate for log splitting or felling. It's slightly larger than an average size hatchet.
Question:	Does the axe ship having already been sharpened or will I need to sharpen it when it arrives
Answer:	It does indeed come with a poly-fabric-weave type sheath. There are 4 snap closures as well to ensure a secure fit.
Question:	Is the head wide enough for splitting or narrow for chopping
Answer:	It can be thrown, but I don't recommend it. The riveted steel pommel came loose the first time the butt hit the target instead of the blade. The head really needs a bit more weight to be thrown well. When my friends and I tried we noticed it took considerably more force to make it stick than any traditional hatchet or axe due to it being heavier on the handle end (we are all fairly proficient at throwing). All in all though, if you can heave it hard enough to make up for the lack of weight in the head, it will land.
Question:	Is there a particular reason this is made from carbon steel instead of stainless? Won't this axe rust once the powder coat wears off
Answer:	hobbits should stick with tiny elven blades. axes are more for dwarfs, as noted by chad. the more important question is what is more deadly to orcs, the black one, the blue one, or the black with the leather handle?

User questions & answers

Question:	What's the difference between the chopping and the splitting axe
Answer:	Chopping axe doesn’t have the wide V shape cheek (part of the head) the splitting axe does. Very difficult to make a good chop perpendicularly (cut down tree or cut limb in half) with a splitting axe because of the wide cheek of the head. However, the wide V shape makes splitting wood effortless.
Question:	Does this come with a belt clip
Answer:	Hello, The LEXIVON V14 Camping Hatchet comes with a protective carrying sheath/hanger for optimal use outdoor. Belt clip is not included. We also added a bonus - XS blade protector to use when space is limited in your backpack. Regards.
Question:	Where are Lexivon hatchets/axes made? thanks
Answer:	Hi, The LEXIVON LX-V14 Designed & Warranted by LEXIVON US - Manufactured in Taiwan. We carefully monitor manufacturing throughout the entire process to ensure high-quality standards. Regards.
Question:	Can the other side of the V14 camping hatchet be used as a hammer for tent stakes
Answer:	I've used mine to drive tent stakes and didn't have any problems. Been a great little hatchet for me as I prefer to do things without power tools.

Helko Werk Classic Journeyman

The Journeyman is a hybrid of a hatchet and a conventional axe, and is the perfect all-purpose “in between” companion for the avid backpacker, camper, or woodsman. This pack axe is designed to be lightweight, compact, and easy to carry while trekking through wilderness. Comfortable to use one or two handed, the Journeyman will make kindling, limb branches, build your shelter, and other light splitting or cutting work. The poll may be used for light hammering, such as striking in tent stakes.

Forging

Helko axe heads are individually forged by hand using a drop hammer on open dies. The blacksmith does this work on a drop forge, using tongs to hold and shape the hot steel as a hammer falls repeatedly onto it. The drop hammer runs continuously at remarkable speed, requiring a highly skilled and time-tested smith. The hand-eye coordination and judgment required for this process can only come from years of experience, as every split-second decision ultimately affects the shape and integrity of the final product. ​Once satisfied with his work, the Smith hammers the Helko Werk crown logo into the cheek. Only minimal supplementary work is performed, allowing each blade to proudly display its forging marks and ensuring that no two pieces are exactly alike. All Helko tools are manufactured in Germany from premium, C50 high grade carbon steel.

Rockwell Hardness

Rockwell hardness is an important factor to consider when evaluating the quality of an axe head. The steel must be tempered just right, without being too soft to hold an edge or hard enough to become brittle. A soft bit will lose its edge quickly, requiring constant sharpening and honing. Conversely, over-hardened bits are liable to chip during normal use. ​Helko's Master Smiths have cumulatively spent hundreds of years perfecting the hardness and temper of our axes, creating an ideal balance between superior edge holding ability, ease of sharpening, and resistance to chipping. After forging, the heads are hardened and cooled in a continuously running 70°C oil bath. They are then heated to 180-200°C to relieve strain on the surface of the steel and achieve the desired level of hardness. Helko axe and hatchet edges are hardened to approximately 53-56 HRC (Rockwell) up to 30 millimeters from the cutting edge, while the eye is generally left unhardened to prevent cracks in the steel.

Handle Making

The quality of the handle is a significant measure of the tool’s integrity. Helko proudly equips their axes with some of the finest woods available. Our hickory handles are crafted from sustainably sourced Grade A American hickory. Helko promotes environmentally sound, socially beneficial, and economically prosperous management of the world's forests. Our hickory wood is softly air dried over periods of approximately 9 months in order to bring the wood's moisture content down the the proper level. American hickory, growing between 60 and 120 feet high, is a hardwood that maintains remarkable bending properties and flexibility. Hickory is known for its shock absorbing and resistance capabilities. It has a coarse texture and a straight grain, and is highly receptive to oils and finishes. Hickory’s sapwood, or outer layer, is primarily white with shades of brown, while the heartwood is a pale reddish brown.

Leather Sheaths

Our Leather sheaths are made from vegetable tanned, full grain, cowhide leather. The sheaths are made with a heavy duty welt, which is an added strip of leather that rests against the blade, for maximum blade protection. The buckle fasteners are nickel plated with an adjustable strap that will always ensure a tight and snug fit, regardless if the leather stretching over time.

Maintenance & Safety - Take care of your axe, and it will take care of you.
