A functional firefighter's axe

Modelled on the traditional firefighter's axe, the American Superhero is a heavy two-handed tool: its 3 kg mass and forged W108 head drive powerful chopping strikes, while the long ash handle gives leverage. Each head is individually forged and hardened, and the optional engraving and wooden box make it a natural retirement or promotion gift for a firefighter. See the rest of our hand-forged axes.
