Hi

I like this, can you please confirm the steel type used and cost for you to make another one for me. some idea of lead time would be good also as I am thinking of giving it to someone.

Regards

I don't believe it :eek:! I had an order for one yesterday.....spooky or what?
Mines with a simpler handle though as it will use a hammer/axe handle ;)
Must be something in the water Nige :)
BTW love the new avatar Launditch1. Coming to the meet next month? May bring the new coal forge I made today :)

A customer of mine recently sent me a photo of an Adze asking if I could make one the same.
I asked where he got the photo and he pointed me to this thread.

Just wondered where you got the Adze as I thought I recognised it as one I made 2 couple of years ago .
