Hultafors Premium Throwing Axe Wetterhall 1.6

Description

This type of double axe was originally used by woodcutters, who had the advantage of always having a sharp axe to hand. While they used one edge for rough work, they could carry out precise tasks with the other side. Today, it is mainly used in throwing competitions among enthusiasts. The axe is hand-forged and made from carbon steel in the forge at Hults Bruk. The forging tradition dates back to 1697. This axe was named after Bo Wetterhall, the man who worked at Hults Bruk the longest. The curved handle is made of shock-elastic American hickory wood for fatigue-free work. Supplied with a high-quality leather sheath. Warning and safety information:Cut injuries: The most common danger when using knives is the risk of cuts. Sharp blades can quickly penetrate skin and tissue.Slipping of the knife: Improper or excessive pressure can cause the knife to slip, resulting in uncontrolled movements that can cause injuries.Injuries due to falls: Knives should never be left unsecured or near table edges to prevent them from falling and injuring someone.Blunt knives: Blunt knives pose a greater risk of injury as they require more force and can slip more easily. Knives should therefore be properly sharpened regularly.Improper use: Using a knife for tasks for which it is not intended (e.g. as a lever tool) can not only damage the blade, but also lead to accidents.
