CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESBuilt for serious work and trusted by generations of outdoorsmen, the Council Tool Boy's Axe with 28" handle is a compact powerhouse that blends traditional craftsmanship with field-proven durability. Whether you're clearing camp, splitting kindling, or tackling light felling jobs, this axe delivers the right balance of weight, power, and control.
At the heart of the tool is a forged tool steel Dayton-pattern head, featuring a 4-inch cutting edge. The head is oil-coated to resist rust and sports a rugged sport utility finish that’s ready for hard use, not just display. Forged right here in the USA, the head offers excellent edge retention and toughness, ensuring it stands up to repeated impacts and demanding conditions.
The 28-inch handle is made from American Hickory, curved to provide a comfortable swing and better leverage. Hickory is known for its strength, shock absorption, and durability—qualities that make it the gold standard for axe handles. The curve improves control during the swing and offers a natural hand feel that seasoned users appreciate.
At just 2.25 pounds, this axe offers the portability and maneuverability needed for trail work, backcountry use, or as part of your everyday tool lineup. It’s ideal for those who need a reliable axe without the bulk of a full-size felling axe. Whether you’re a scout, homesteader, or just someone who values practical gear, the Council Tool Boy's Axe is built to perform when it matters most.
Made in the USA with over a century of toolmaking heritage behind it, this axe is a testament to Council Tool’s commitment to quality, reliability, and American manufacturing. This isn’t just an axe—it’s a tool designed to be passed down, season after season. Order it today from SMKW!
