Tasmanian Racing Axe

Built with one purpose in mind—maximum chopping performance. Inspired by the legendary racing axes used in timber sports competitions, this heavyweight tool combines aggressive geometry, substantial mass, and traditional craftsmanship to deliver exceptional cutting power.

Hand forged from 1055 carbon steel, the massive 2 kg head features a deep blade profile designed to penetrate timber efficiently and clear chips with every strike. The clean forged finish emphasizes the purposeful lines of the head, while the etched Paps Tomahawks insignia serves as a mark of its handmade origin. With a razor-sharp 15 cm cutting edge, this axe is engineered for serious work and impressive cutting performance.

The head is mounted on a premium hickory handle, widely regarded as the finest handle wood for high-impact tools thanks to its outstanding strength, flexibility, and shock-absorbing properties. At 80 cm in length, the handle provides excellent leverage and control, allowing the axe to fully utilize the momentum generated by its substantial head weight.

Powerful, balanced, and built to endure, this Tasmanian Racing Axe represents the spirit of traditional timber sports and the enduring quality of handcrafted tools.
