>>992204>>992385Thanks for the info guys; I had not heard about those quality issues. I will probably still get one of the Husqvarna axes although I was eyeballing the Hults Bruk Tibro carpenter's axe.
I'm helping my neighbor with a timber framing project, building a sauna, and it's a great excuse to get a new axe. Agreed about the curved handle though, I will probably re-hang on a straight haft. Any axe I need to re-handle gets a straight or much straighter haft, I like them better.
Would you keep the handle length or make it shorter? 50cm seems like an akward in-between size, too short for 2 hands and too long for one.
