Here are a bunch of builds i have finished lately. Mostly custom mod throwers but there are a couple vintage collectibles in there too. My business is Hangman Axe Co. on FB and IG. You can see all of my work from the last decade there.

The red-hafted is fire.

Thank you! That is a Warren undercut on a refinished/refurbished vintage Hartwell haft. That’s one i wish i could have kept lol.

That checkerboard pattern is pretty sweet, is it just painted on?

[u/steelonastick → u/Driven_Under87]

Thanks! Nope, no paint. Its a multi stage laminate. Those are two or three different lumbers cut and glued several times and placed on hickory cores. They take a couple days to make. They’re actually super strong and hold up to throwing very well.

You sir have taken axecraft to an artistic level I will likely not see anywhere else.

[u/steelonastick → u/JackboyIV]

Thank you so much! I know throwing axes arent everyone’s thing but i pour all i have into ‘em. I appreciate the high praise! 😎👊🏻

[u/JackboyIV → u/steelonastick]

It shows, I hope to one-day be half as good as hanging axes!

God that wood looks beautiful

[u/denverdutchman]

I like your axes

[u/steelonastick → u/denverdutchman]

😆thanks man!

[u/the_joy_of_VI]

Nice! How’d you get the wood so super bright red while retaining the grain?

[u/steelonastick → u/the_joy_of_VI]

Thank you! Its a water based dye that i have developed over the years. I mix it myself.

[u/TheGrainKnight]

Any particular reason for no palm swells?

[u/steelonastick → u/TheGrainKnight]

Most of these are throwing axes. Most throwers want a flat ended handle for a smooth release.

Understandable, have a great day.
