Okay one and all - I've just received word from Cegga. The first 10 are finished
For anyone who hasn't seen these axes, they are a new design - with me doing the easy bit (dreaming what I wanted) and Cegga doing all the hard work of making it.
The haft is a perfect 40cm in length.
Total weight is 650g and the bit is 7.5cm across.
Have a look
The axe is a light and very portable model - much smaller than a GB small forest or Wetterling large hunter making very portable but still, in my view, large enough for some serious work which I found my mini axe to struggle with.
I must credit the exponents of light, polished head (notably Old Jimbo) for informing the design choices - it really does make a difference.
Cegga is going to do an introductory price for these, the first 10
There are conditions of sale though (nothing too onerous)
Condition 1.
If you get a customs charge or import duty, you will need to sort that out yourself (I didn't but you might)
Condition 2.
Cegga has done the first buy to "raise his profile" as a custom axe maker. It is implicit in the deal that the first 10 purchasers publish their thoughts on the axe when received. There is no implication that this review should be anything other than honest but some customer feedback would be really appreciated.
Condition 3
This is a PayPal sale - there is no other way this can work due to currencies involved etc. You will need to include your BCUK screen name, real name and shipping address with the payment
If the design is faulty - blame me
Fit, finish, grind, temper, forging standards - blame Cegga (mine is flawless)
Okay so the price for the first 10 including the axe, mask, shipping and paypal.
£40 to your door.
The first 10 people to post as replies to this thread get them. I'll PM the PayPal details to the lucky 10 winners so please make sure you have PM space available.
Please don't worry if they go quickly, Cegga can make more, however he is one man and for simplicity and sanity, its easier only to put up for sale whats ready to ship, so I can pop them on here as they are available
Best of luck all
