We’re all for the attractive design of an axe from Best Made or a similar outfit, but one is so beautiful and pricey that you are almost afraid to use it. The new Freyr Axe from CRKT is a worthy alternative, as the aesthetically pleasing design is paired with an equally pleasing price tag. At $72, the axe that was designed by Elmer Roush isn’t absurdly expensive and the materials used are worthy of a few of your hard-earned bucks. The hot forged 1055 carbon steel head is paired with a Tennessee hickory handle to compose something quite simplistic but nevertheless attention-grabbing. The bearded design allows for shaving wood and easier carry and use. Complete with a lifetime warranty, the Freyr Axe is the good-looking axe you won’t be afraid to use.
