Axe handle ATLAS 35 cm bent, head size 42 x 17 mm, for 600 gram axe

Axe handle ATLAS made of ash wood, with head size 42 x 17 mm and a length of 35 cm. This bent handle is suitable for an axe weighing 600 grams. For mounting the handle, the axe wedge set with article number 651810 is recommended (wooden wedge 45 x 60 mm and 2 metal wedges no. 2 16 mm).

ATLAS axe handles are made from ash rootstock, which contains the best wood. Ash wood is tough, shock-absorbing, and strong. The ash wood undergoes two drying processes: during the first drying process, sawn ash wood boards are air-dried. During the second process, the ash wood is computer-controlled re-dried in a climate chamber. Because of the re-drying, the handle does not shrink and the axe head stays firmly attached to the handle.

Next, the ATLAS handle is waxed with plant-based Carnauba. This allows the wood to breathe, does not absorb water or dirt, and retains its beautiful natural color. The waxing ensures a longer service life and a pleasantly smooth handle, helping prevent blisters. In addition, plant-based waxing of handles is better for the environment than using varnish or paraffin.

ATLAS axe handles are manufactured entirely carbon-neutrally in the Netherlands and are available in various lengths and designs.
