Collection: Axes
When does an interest become an obsession?
I've always just had a 'thing' for axes. I own a few different ones and, as the wood burner is our preferred source of heat during the winter, I spent a fair bit of time splitting logs and kindling. So axes are an important tool for me.
Of course axes need to perform their job well. But that doesn't stop them looking great too. I've always liked the painted handle axes of traditional Canadian lumberjacks. Used to identify their preferred axe at the beginning of the working day and easier to spot when left on the forest floor. So I began painting our own axes, then hammers and hori-hori garden knives.
But the ambition was always to create our own Tinker and Fix axe - which finally came to fruition in 2022, and now in 2024 we've launched our second. Both incorporate recycled skateboards in the wedges and palm swells.
As of September 2024 we'll also be one of a handful of UK stockists of Gransfors Bruk axes. I've owned two of their axes for years, after Louise had a run of buying me them for Christmas gifts.
