Wood-Craft Pack Axe

Lake Waccamaw, North Carolina

A hand-forged camp axe from the oldest American axe maker.

Forged, finished and assembled in Lake Waccamaw, North Carolina by a company that has been making axes since 1886, now run by the fourth and fifth generations of the Council family. Raw materials come from domestic sources and most hickory handles are made in-house. Re-hang the handle when it finally wears and the head outlives you.
