The Helko Werk Traditional Black Forest Wölfling is the perfect axe for those seeking a compact yet powerful all-round tool. With a hand-forged C50 high-carbon steel head and an American hickory handle, this axe offers exceptional precision, balance, and durability. Ideal for outdoor use and wood chopping, its smaller size makes it easy to handle without sacrificing efficiency. The Wölfling is an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced users who appreciate traditional German craftsmanship and reliability. An adjustable 6–7 oz American leather edge cover is included. The head is open-die hand-forged, heat-treated, and oil-hardened to 53–56 HRC (Rockwell), hand-ground, and stamped with the Helko crown logo. The handle is made from class A American hickory, individually selected for grain orientation and density, treated with boiled linseed oil, and traditionally hung with a wooden wedge and steel ring wedge. Specifications: Handle length 27 cm, head weight 350 g.
