Estwing Sportsman Axe Leather Handle 3.25 Inch Stainless Steel Blade EW24A

The Estwing Sportsman’s Axe is a compact yet powerful tool built for outdoorsmen who demand strength, reliability, and American-made craftsmanship. With an overall length of approximately 13.5 inches and a 3.25-inch cutting edge, this axe is ideal for chopping kindling, clearing campsites, or performing light splitting tasks. At just under 1.7 pounds, it's easy to carry and maneuver, making it a dependable companion on the trail or at the cabin.

This axe is forged from a single piece of 1055 high carbon steel—no welds, no weak points. The one-piece construction ensures maximum durability and long-term structural integrity, even under heavy use. Estwing’s forging process not only enhances strength but also creates a clean, balanced profile that swings true with every strike. The head features a finely honed edge that can handle a variety of wood types, whether dry or green.

What sets the Sportsman’s Axe apart is its distinctive handle. Made from stacked leather washers, each ring is compressed, shaped, and permanently fixed around the tang—the steel shaft that runs the full length of the axe. The handle is then sanded smooth, polished, and sealed with a protective lacquer, giving it a glossy finish that looks as good as it feels. The grip offers firm control while maintaining just enough cushion to reduce hand fatigue, even in wet or cold conditions.

A durable nylon sheath is included to protect the blade and provide safe storage. The sheath also features a convenient belt loop for easy carry. Every Estwing Sportsman’s Axe is proudly made in the USA, a point of pride that underscores its reputation for quality and rugged dependability.

Whether you're heading into the woods or just working around the yard, this axe delivers professional-grade performance in a compact size. Trusted by campers, hunters, and craftsmen for generations, it's more than just a tool—it's a piece of functional American heritage. Grab yours today with SMKW!
