Group Buy on a Nessmuk Axe?

  • Come along to the amazing Summer Moot (21st July - 2nd August), a festival of bushcrafting and camping in a beautiful woodland PLEASE CLICK HERE for more information.
We're still working on it off and on guys. Theres all sorts of logistical problems with non standardhelves etc. but Cegga has promised its top of his list now (along with something unusually Viking like for me :D).

It absolutely will happen - but I make no promiss to when

May or may not be able to afford it when it does come out, but definitely interested - the second set of pictures looks very nice... Not convinced by the ridged helve though - some of us have bigger hands than others, and looks like it might be quite uncomfortable for the large of hand...

If we're still guestimating how much we think it should go for, I suppose I'd expect to pay something between £100 and £200 plus P&P (i.e. I agree it's more than reasonable to be paying 'decent knife' prices for something of this calibre)
 
Did this go ahead ?, if so has anyone got one /.

I have yet to find a really good axe for both cutting and splitting so I think this is what I'm looking for.

It looks good Cegga. Is the weight evenly spread on both sides or is one side thicker or heavier than the other? What length will the helve be and what will be the over all weight? A 1kg head is as heavy as the Big axe you made me last year, which is really a 2 handed axe. Is this one designed to be used mainly 2 handed?

Hi!!
Here you have a profile pics it will have two different edge. The axe are not ready I have some grinding left so I think it will be little ligther when I grind the edge and I can make it shorter and not so long edge on it .If you place the axe like the first pics there are balance so no one of the edge will fall down.

Hello my friend :)

That shape looks just the thing we talked about - I love the sweep of the edge - lots of cutting edge for not too much weight. I don't think we should reduce that for a first prototype. I'd like to aim for around a Kilo including the helve.

I know it is more curved than the traditional true Nessmuk - but more in my mind like a proper "cruiser" axe should be.

The differential grind looks good too. I have not yet found anyone who has got that right - please dont grind too much off the splitting side as it need to be tough.


Looking very good indeed mate
