Shing,

Sadly not yet - I have sent some initial designs over to Cegga and he will cut some steel when he gets the chance. It'll be a while in the making this one. There is just and I repeat just a tiny chance that I might be able to talk him into a limited number of damasteel axes for us too.

I can't imagine any one would want one of those though :D

Dunc, at these prices I wouldn't have dared...they were going to be almost £3 more than regular axes

however they are cancelled since Shinken thought them "bad"

(okay, numpty alert, this is a joke, they are the most costly axe you will ever handle and please, release Shinken from the altar and put the Woodlore down)

We'll see

Another batch of Hunters first

Then the double bit / and or the damascus axes (maybe, perhaps, possibly no promises...)

Funny though isn't it. People quibble at paying the price for the best axe in the world that costs the same as a semi production knife

Go figure

Please note this is far from the finished product - just a show of the effort that goes into designing and building such a thing

This head is not the final shape or weight - just a "sketch" to show we are listening!

Spikey you have prototype #1 ;)

This however is prototype #3

Now the shape is much, much better - but its the differential grind that really is unique

Now, tis is a real differential grind - a proper cutting axe on one side and a really strong splitter on the other. Not just a question of bevel - but a real differential grind.

What do you think?

Is that a full scale model Red? It looks very small to me. I've never handled a double header so I can't judge how much the weight of the unused head will add to the power of the head being used, but my gut feeling is that is a light axe.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that the profile of the grinds looks really good.
