Unfortunately I haven't the skills of the incomparable Ray Mears.
However, if you watch closely you will notice that it was this exact model, the Gransfors Bruks Small Forest Axe, that he used while crafting that handle!
Wow that's a beauty. It is a perfect size. And handmade by a Swedish friend yet! I wonder if in Sweden they value tools made in Canada? I can just see Lee Valley as the hotest trend from the New World in Sweden. I have an old camp axe that I have had since childhood- but it needs a new handle. What do you think? Love dad

How come you didn't build your own axe handle like on that explorer's dvd you gave us???
