Glad you found it helpful.
Fantastic video. This will be helpful for adjusting my bearded Viking axe.
Great video! People buy CRKT T-HAWKs and don't understand you may have to do this! Not every one comes perfectly fitted!
You might also round the top edges of the eye before doing this, so the eye of the axe head doesn't start cutting into the wood and making it mushroom as bad. Overall though, great advise for fitting an axe head, regardless of a friction fit or standard fittings.

Great tip 👌
I can't help but chuckle at all of the poor reviews for many of the tomahawks sold online. So many of the reviews are from individuals that simply don't realize that a tomahawk head is MEANT to come off.

It's supposed to come off when I want to remove it, not on its own ...
Thanks Barry. Having just brought 3 hawks all with lose heads your video is timely and welcome.

You can tighten up the heads by soaking the handle with pure raw linseed oil. You can also fit the head like this gentleman is telling you, then soak the handle and you will get an awesome fit.
Why not any videos of building the knife kits? I would like to order one but I would like to also see some done.
Plain and simple and right.......well done!
What about cutting a slot, and fitting a wooden wedge, just like a normal hatchet head,??
Thanks for showing us. Take care.
