Our Mission
Make * Educate * Curate
We make heirloom quality axes, educate on their use and care, and curate the rich history of axe making in Maine
Make
Our axes are handmade in our South Portland shop using U.S. made 1050 carbon steel, hung on a A+ quality Amish-turned hickory handle and honed wicked sharp!

Educate
We are learning all the time on how to care for and use axes and hope to share our knowledge through events, blog posts and our website.

Curate
It's true - we are history nerds. The heritage of axe making in Maine is a rich and fascinating story that constantly inspires our axe making.
