An inspired hybridization of classical American and Italian axe designs the WOOX FORTE draws from the best of both schools to strike a perfect balance of features for the modern hand tool user.
With a silhouette inspired by traditional Italian woodworking axes the broad and mildly curved bit of the Forte Ax makes accurately connecting blows a snap with a beard to assist in choking up on the handle for precise work when carving or crafting. A deeply penetrating bit geometry makes chopping a breeze while a concave high centerline helps act as a chip-breaker and smooths the bit-to-eye transition when splitting.
Large slip-fit eye allows for easy wedge-free handle replacement while preserving some effective amount of swell to the knob of the handle for a secure grip in relaxed hands. Compact and light enough to be easily packed but heavy enough for serious work the Forte is sure to make for a constant companion no matter the circumstances.
