Description
A product of our partnership with a 3rd generation forge in Germany. The Forest Axe is a full-sized tree chopper with a 31½" Ash handle, a red steel safety collar and an extra thick neck
The Forest Axe is a hefty, full-sized tree chopper with a 31-½" handle, a 5-½" long cutting edge and an extra stout neck. This is the biggest axe in our selection, with its 8-½" head (from edge to poll) inches longer than comparable axes. Weighs 5.37 lbs. When you hold this axe, you just know it’s up to all of your felling and limbing tasks. It feels substantial in the hand—but not too heavy. The added heft of the longer and thicker head creates momentum on the swing, making the job go quicker. The woodchips will be flying.
The handle is European ash, a wood traditionally used for long tool handles for its durability and shock resistance. (The same reasons ash is commonly used in baseball bats). A red steel safety collar protects the top of the handle from potential damage caused by overstrikes. Made to our specifications in Germany by a well-respected foundry. Highly recommended. An excellent value.
This set also includes a French-Made leather sheath that is made to specifically fit the Garrett Wade Forest Axe.
The Garrett Wade Forest Axe is available for purchase separately, although we highly recommend this set.

Absolute unit of an axe-
"Fantastic axe, I trusted my life with this axe during the summer Spartan Death Race 2025, never failed. Even when absolutely exhausted, the steel collar helped preserve the integrity of the axe even when technique gets sloppy from fatigue. Highly recommended for hard use crowds."
Spectacular
"Incredible build quality and feel in the hand. I haven't done much with it yet, but I don't anticipate it letting me down. Would buy another for sure."
Just what I was looking

A Great Axe
"I have been using a very old axe for a very long time. It was time to upgrade to something new. The weight of the Forest Axe is very good for splitting wood and the way it is shaped along with the handle collar protection keeps the number of over strikes to a minimum. I thought I would miss my 35"" long handle (the forest axe comes with a 31. 5"" handle) but I believe the shorter handle is helping to control the axe better and I am closer to my work. I thought about purchasing this axe for about 3 years before I bought it. I am very happy with my purchase and would recommend this axe highly to anyone who is splitting wood on a regular basis."
It stays sharp
"I've split about 1/3 cord of hard wood with it so far and have only sharpened it once. I like the heft/feel of this German made axe and feel good about the purchase."
Forest Axe with sheath
"The Axe is great. I appreciate the metal handle protector under the head. The sheath is nicely made, but a bit small, so the snap won’t reach to snap. I’ll use it on one of my hatchets."
Forest Axe
"I will match this axe with my Hudson Bay axe on any given day!"
