Hi,
The mask is made from 3.5mm leather, double thick around the front part this will give more leather on the safety side.
The axe mask is 5 layer at the front and bottom, the hole are all Awl by hand (No drilling of holes). All hand stitched with tiger thread (i do not rate linen thread on working leather stuff, that's just me)
The strap which hold the axe in place i have plaited .
The colour is mid brown with black stitching and is sealed inside and out.
The axe is not for sale.

Thank you for looking
All comments welcome

Cheers Topknot

My Husqvarna hatchet has a six inch head with a three inch edge. Does anyone know if this will fit it??

Just compared my husky hatchet, and both the poll and length of the cheeks/beard on the scandi (same head size as sfa) are larger...

Also, the strap for the scandi rides up and over the poll when clipped secure.

the head of the Scandinavian forest axe is bigger than the Small Forest Axe,:)

I have the Small FA and the Huskie. The Huskie head is quite a bit smaller. The SFA mask will fit but will be loose and will come off.
I am the proud owner of a similar topknot mask for my own Huskie. I would have this in a shot for my SFA but I already have quite a nice mask for that.

Guess what was waiting for me when I got home. The photos in no way do this justice it is not only a truly attractive piece of work it also a substantial mask that means business and inspires confidence. Wonderful!
