Damascus Steel Axe, 246+ Layers, with Exotic Wood Handle and Leather Sheath

This functional axe features a head forged from Damascus steel. The blade is created by folding the steel five times to produce more than 246 distinct layers, resulting in a unique pattern on every tool. The process ensures a durable and sharp edge suitable for various cutting tasks.

The handle is crafted from an exotic wood, providing a secure and comfortable grip. It's affixed with brass pins for durability and includes a lanyard hole for carrying options. The axe is well-balanced, weighing 1.00 kg, to deliver controlled and efficient force.

Supplied with a protective leather sheath, this axe is a capable tool for general workshop use, green woodworking, or camp craft.

Specifications

Before you order

Age 18+ only. By placing this order you confirm you are 18 or over. The courier will request photo ID at delivery and return the parcel if no eligible adult is available.

Carrying in public. Under section 139 of the Criminal Justice Act 1988 (with equivalents in Scotland and Northern Ireland), it is an offence to have any bladed or sharply pointed article in a public place without good reason or lawful authority. Carry your purchase only when transporting it directly to and from a workplace, workshop, fieldcraft course, hunting estate, or other lawful use.

Use. This is a sharp working tool, not a weapon. Cut away from the body, keep fingers behind the edge, sheathe before storing, and keep out of reach of children.

Care. Wipe dry after every use and apply a thin film of mineral or camellia oil to prevent rust — high-carbon and Damascus steels will spot or patina if left damp.

Shipping. UK addresses only. Signature and photo ID required at delivery. We cannot ship to PO Boxes, parcel lockers, or addresses outside the UK.

Liability. Toolsmith Ltd accepts no responsibility for injury, damage, or legal consequences arising from the misuse, unlawful possession, or unlawful use of any tool sold on this site. The buyer is solely responsible for lawful and safe use. Full terms in our knives & axes guide.
