After trying to find a decent axe head for those of you who like to play NOVI style (no bleed) rules, I had almost given up. So I just modded some instead. They work, They hit hard for a smaller style, and they are averaging 2.75 inch bit length. The head weight still sits within NATF/IATF range, and usually finishes around 1.35#
This little green bundle of fun was the axe used in the #NOWEDGE challenge with Vin C, AKA Phily Axe CO. He was kind enough to accept the challenge and we had a blast throwing our hatchets with no wedges :)
Of course he pretty much demolished me in points, but we both got to complete 5 rounds, with no heads coming loose.
Specs:
Just over 13 inches
New Colour style thanks to Michael J Moore Jr. (Check out his work!)
Flat front for finger placement
Thinned blade and bit
hand sanded for a brushed steel look.
Hickory came from EAST COAST LUMBERJACK - find him on facebook if you want a great handle.
