Hults Bruk – Yankee Pattern – Pre 1988
I found this head in a junk shop and picked it up for $5. The edge is in good condition apart from a chip at one end. I am having real difficulty finding a 26”-28” handle because of the seemlingly large eye dimensions for the weight of the head – 55mm x 21mm. Any help on finding a handle greatly appreciated!

This mid-sized yankee pattern was probably made sometime between 1960 and 1988. Some of the older axes might have dimensions that don’t correspond well to the handles currently being produced. It might require getting a slight rounder handle and shaving it down to fit. Please see here for more info:
