2.25 lbs. Dayton axe head outfitted with a 28 in. curved hickory handle. Popularly referred to as a "boy&';s" axe. A "mid" sized tool. Dayton pattern originated from the Dayton Ohio area. In September of 2023 our iconic Boy Axe undergoes an upgrade. The overall side profile closely resembles more vintage and historic versions of the Dayton Pattern axe head. By moving the eye forward and towards the bit it extends the back of the axe/poll and gives it better balance from front to back. This "balance" improves accuracy and efficiency while making it safer to use. This forward eye also creates a slightly thicker upper cheek in front of the eye to help with medium/ light splitting.
