Cast, forged and tempered adzes for sculpting, woodcarving. We are finding adze's harder and harder to obtain.

Traditional use of the adze is for removing bark and trimming or shaping timber, log home building, shipbuilders, timber framing and furniture building. The adze head have conic shape of the eye. The handle is turned from beech. The handle is removable to ensure ease of sharpening. You will receive the adze removed out of the handle and you should mount it tight.
