Just took one of the first steps in upgrading my old shitty cheapo Biltema axe by removing the black coating, the edge still needs a little more work but I'm getting there
what would be the best way to get the plastic handle off? I'm thinking sawing it off right under the head and hammering it out would be the best solution or maybe just bypassing the sawing and hammering it out with a narrow carpenters hammer? there doesn't appear to be any wedge holding the head in and I don't see why there would be since the handle is plastic, also could it still be functional if I put a longer handle on it? the head is 600g and current handle is almost exactly 31cm
