Oscar Rush Large Bowl Adze
Product Description
A hand forged 50mm diameter hand adze with elliptical sweep profile to the cutting edge.
The head weight is approximately 600g with a 230mm - 235mm long (just over 9''), hand carved, faceted, kin dried ash handle.
The leather adze cover is made by Oscar using Italian leather with solid brass rivets (these are much stronger than cap rivets).
This adze has been carefully designed for shaping large to medium bowls down to cooking spoon sized utensils.
If striking the poll, do so with a wooden mallet (not a steel hammer).
Please note each of these tools are forged, ground and handled by hand which makes each of these beautifully functional edge tools unique.
There will be slight variations between each tool which is part of their beauty but the crucial curves and alignment are consistent for each tool.
Hand forged from 070M55 steel
Proudly made in Suffolk, UK.
These tools are made in small batches by artisan blacksmith Oscar Rush.
If you miss out on a batch, please email sales@classichandtools.com and we will advise when the next batch is due (we anticipate 4 batches per annum).
These axes were made widely available through Classic Hand Tools in the spring of 2024. As anticipated, there has been strong demand world wide for these adzes and Oscar's other hand forged tools.
Apart from side axes, carving axes and small hand adzes, Classic Hand Tools have commissioned Oscar to make some other edge tools which will make their appearances later on in 2025.
