Ax /Mora combo arrived and it was a nice KJE Mora!!


The sheaths were once attached...


Looks good, needs cleaning and sharpening ...the ax head is a bit loose and epoxied on top so I'll have to crack that out and figure out a wedge or something. Hate to replace the orig handle till I have to....

Any advice on tightening the handle?

A wedge sounds in order, depending on condition possible a wooden one and a steel one, but until you get that epoxy off so you can see what you're working with, its hard to tell.

Thanks bud! I'll have to wait till the weather cools a little and I perk up a bit. Can probably get that epoxy out with a big screwdriver. It would take half a day to find a proper chisel in all of Dad's tools.

Before you attack the epoxy you could try soaking the head/handle in linseed oil/white sprit, it might swell the wood  :tu:
