An axe is a versatile tool that can be used for various purposes. Choosing the right axe can make your work easier and more efficient. However, with so many options available in the market, it can be overwhelming to select the right one. In this guide, we will take you through the various factors that you should consider when choosing an axe.
There are three main types of axes that you need to know about: felling axes, splitting axes, and hatchets. Each of these types of axes is designed for specific purposes.
Felling axes are designed for cutting trees. They have a longer handle and a heavier head to help you cut through the tree's trunk. They are not ideal for splitting wood.
Splitting axes are designed for splitting wood. They have a shorter handle and a heavier head that helps to generate more force when splitting wood. They are not ideal for cutting trees.
Hatchets are small axes that are ideal for camping, woodworking, and chopping small branches. They have a shorter handle and a lighter head, making them easy to handle.
The axe head is the most important part of the axe. It is the part that does the cutting, so you need to consider the following factors when choosing an axe head:
The most common materials used for axe heads are steel and carbon. Steel heads are more durable and can hold a sharp edge for longer. Carbon heads are softer and easier to sharpen but need more maintenance.
The head shape determines the purpose of the axe. For instance, a felling axe has a concave shape that helps to cut through the tree trunk. A splitting axe has a flat shape that helps to split the wood.
The weight of the head determines how much force you can generate when swinging the axe. A heavier head generates more force, but it can also tire you out quickly.
The handle of the axe is just as important as the head. It determines how comfortable the axe is to handle and how much control you have over it.
The most common materials used for axe handles are wood, fiberglass, and steel. Wood handles are traditional and offer a good grip, but they need more maintenance. Fiberglass handles are durable and low maintenance. Steel handles are the most durable but are also the heaviest.
The length of the handle determines how much leverage you can get when swinging the axe. Longer handles generate more force, but they can also be harder to control.
The shape of the handle determines how comfortable it is to hold the axe. Some handles have a curved shape that fits better in your hand, while others have a straight shape that offers more control.
Aside from the head and handle, there are other features you should consider when choosing an axe:
Some axes come with a blade coating that helps to prevent rust and corrosion. This is especially important if you plan to use the axe outdoors.
A sheath is a protective cover for the axe head. It not only protects the blade but also prevents accidents when carrying the axe.
The balance point of the axe is the point where the handle and head meet. A well-balanced axe is easier to control and requires less effort to swing.
