I'm selling this because I don't use it. I've made a paracord handle, making it easy to carry. ★Bonus included ★Although it's new, I've touched it up to the point where I could cut off the receipt, so I'm listing it as "like new." ★Uses Swedish steel for the blade. The handle is made of hickory. Due to being handmade, there may be individual differences. All Husqvarna axes with wooden handles are hand-forged by craftsmen from high-quality Swedish steel. Also, American hickory is used for the handle. The axes, prepared for each type of work, combine strength and sharpness. Comes with a leather edge cover. ★The red color may look like rust, but it is not rust.
