Axe
An axe is a tool used to shape, split or cut wood, and as a weapon. The axe has many forms and specialised uses but generally consists of an axe head with a handle, or helve.
Materials needed
- Large rock with perpendicular edges or a river rock
- Green wood, meaning that it that has been recently harvested and therefore has not had an opportunity to dry, or from a young or small tree. This will ensure the wood can be bent and shaped without breaking.
- Cord, made of bark or wet rawhide.
Crafting instructions
Shaping and sharpening the axe head
To craft the axe head, hit off a piece of the source rock for the head with a hammering rock that can be held comfortably in your hand and with an even rock face.
