Handling a Mortise Axe for timberframing 

I finally made a handle for the mortise axe I forged a while ago. Make sure to check out the next video where I'll put this axe to the test! And don't forget the video where I forged the axehead!
The handle is make from ash and surprisingly turned out to have soms nice curly grain on one side. The handle has a slight curve upward so your knuckles clear the log while working in a deep mortise. This kind of axe can be used for al sorts of job where the bit of extra reach is required.
Thank you for watching,
