Replacement Wooden Handles, Hoe Handle, Hickory Axe Handle, Pickaxe Handle, T Handle and Spade or Fork Handle (Hoe Handle)

Strong , and sturdy took a while to fit , so it should, but now it's really strong . No cracking in wood

Fitted like a glove........eventually.

This is a decent handle, it's had a bit of use now and is still in one piece :) Several Land Rover loads of oak have been split using it.I added a couple of coats of varnish after fitting to protect it.

Good tool

Advertised as Ashwood but supplied in Beech which is not as strong or tough as Ash. Beech is a cheap alternative and NOT SUITABLE for a heavy duty digging spade. I will not buy from them again.

Exactly what you would expect a good quality replacement handle to be

Good ergonomic design. Certainly sturdy. The height and width of the headstock should be in the specification. My axe head slot was wider than the headstock and I had to glue on extra (about 2mm per side) wood before shaping it to fit before hammering in the wedges. It was also significantly higher than the hole in the axe-head and required quite a lot of work with a spokeshave. But, once fitted it has proved to be good to handle, robust and secure.
