The Council Tool Velvicut Double-Bit Saddle Axe is a compact, hardworking tool built for those who value traditional craftsmanship, reliable performance, and American-made quality. Designed with versatility and durability in mind, this double-bit axe delivers the cutting power needed for camp chores, trail work, wood processing, and outdoor tasks where a dependable edge is essential.

At the heart of the Velvicut Double-Bit Saddle Axe is a premium 5160 steel axe head, a tough alloy known for its excellent strength, resilience, and ability to withstand demanding use. The head features a tempered and heat-treated finish that helps provide a durable cutting edge while maintaining the toughness required for repeated strikes. With two cutting faces, this double-bit design gives users added versatility, allowing one edge to be maintained for finer work while the other can handle heavier cutting duties.

The axe features a 3-inch cutting edge that offers an effective balance of control and performance in a compact package. Its 16-inch American Hickory wood handle provides a classic feel with dependable shock absorption and natural strength. Hickory has long been the preferred choice for quality axe handles due to its ability to withstand impact while offering a comfortable grip during extended use. The handle design makes this saddle axe easy to carry, maneuver, and control in the field.

A brown leather double-bit blade cover is included to protect the axe edges during storage and transport. The durable leather cover adds a traditional touch while helping keep the sharp steel protected when the axe isn’t in use. Whether carried to a campsite, stored in a workshop, or kept as part of an outdoor gear collection, the included cover helps preserve the axe’s craftsmanship and performance.

Proudly made in the USA, the Council Tool Velvicut Double-Bit Saddle Axe represents a commitment to quality materials, skilled manufacturing, and time-tested tool design. It’s an excellent choice for outdoorsmen, craftsmen, and anyone who appreciates a well-built axe that’s ready for real work. Combining a rugged 5160 steel head, classic hickory handle, and compact saddle-friendly size, this axe delivers dependable performance in a package built to last.
