Axe Handle ATLAS 40 cm bent, head size 48 x 20 mm, for 800 gram axe

Axe handle ATLAS made of ash wood, with head size 48 x 17 mm and length 40 cm. This bent handle is suitable for an axe weighing 800 grams. For mounting the handle, the axe wedge set with item 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 kiln-dried in a climate chamber. Because of this re-drying, the handle does not shrink and the axe head stays firmly attached to the handle.

The ATLAS handle is then waxed with the plant-based Carnauba wax. This ensures that the wood can breathe, does not absorb water or dirt, and retains its beautiful natural color. The waxing provides a longer lifespan and a pleasantly smooth handle, preventing 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-neutral in the Netherlands and are available in various lengths and designs.
