Description

Classic Tasmania Pattern Axe by Helko Werk

The Tasmania Competition Axe is a modern rendition of vintage Tasmanian pattern racing axes. It is an affordable, yet dependable, option for racing experts as well as novices entering the world of timber sporting.

The blade is sharpened for general purpose chopping and cutting and can be used out of the box. Outside of the competition arena, the Tasmania is commonly used as a felling axe on both softwoods and hardwoods. The shorter handle and heavier head allow for quick swings while delivering powerful cuts.

The head is buffed and polished to a highly reflective finish that reduces cutting friction and improves rust resistance.
