Leather Hatchet Handle Collar - Hatchet Collar, Handle Protector, and Neck Guard - Fits Most Hatchets - Made in USA (Hatchet Collar Brown) #8634

I have purchased this item twice and it works as designed. Great product!

I don’t imagine it would fit on any 2 handed axe

I purchased this for my new Hults Bruk Almike Small All-purpose Hatchet. This is quality leatherwork - the guard is thick yet supple enough to conform to handle. Lacing is sturdy - I took my time and really worked the lacing with a rubberized needlenose pliers to get it absolutely as snug as possible. Nothing broke, no issues at all. Fits perfectly and gives me peace of mind that my heirloom-quality hatchet will be protected against overstrikes. There are less expensive handle guards out there - also, people use paracord for this application. You could probably do it cheaper than Helko Werk, but it looks amazing and will stand up to punishment. Go with quality.

it works for protection

Really nice leather guard. Arrives in finished form that can be strapped up to nearly any axe, though without preparation, it may not last long. In contrast to the other reviewers that have had issues with the lacing leather, I was able to lace it up with relative ease and no breakage. Although the leather is treated by the manufacturer, I soaked the guard piece and lacing in a leather conditioner for a day before lacing up. The soak darkens the leather and allows it to flex and wrap easily. The lacing becomes more pliable and holds up well to a good tightening.
