Axes with metal handle

Metal

— handles made of metal — usually the same steel used for the blade; often the whole ax is made in one piece. This option is notable for its extremely high strength and reliability; it is very difficult to bend or break such an ax, even if you specifically set yourself such a goal. On the other hand, metal handles are quite massive, which is why they are not suitable for large tools and are used in relatively small axes for tourist and similar purposes. The metal itself is not very comfortable to hold in the hand, so the handle is usually equipped with lining or winding.
