Double-Edged Damascus Steel Axe, 19-inch / 483mm, with Walnut Wood Handle and Leather Sheath

This double-edged axe features a hand-forged Damascus steel head, created by folding the steel five times to produce over 246 distinct layers. The result is a unique pattern on every axe, combined with the strength required for demanding tasks.

The head is mounted on a 19-inch (approx. 483 mm) walnut wood handle, shaped for control and comfort. With a total weight of around 1 kg, the axe is balanced for an effective swing without excessive fatigue. A stitched leather sheath is included to protect the blade during storage and transport.

Suitable for general wood chopping, splitting kindling, or as a functional piece for collectors and outdoor enthusiasts.

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.
