Weaver Leather Arborist One Piece Single Bit Axe Guard , Tan

finally found a sheath to fit my 5in broad head hatchet

I like that it fits snug even though it looks to fit an even bigger head if needed. Price appears to have increased. Leather quality is good.

I worked with firefighters for a while after playing football. My job was to help train these great folks but I soon was going out on calls and truly considering changing from a strength coach and breech tool designer into full time fighting. I have always had a full size firefighting axe for the potential to take on the worst case scenarios. I have often used tape to cover the sharp edges that can be peeled off super fast. But unlike my tomahawks... I rarely have used a cover like this item. So I was moving stuff around and the axe fell and I realized that I should get some real coverage for the sharp edge in order to not hurt family or friends that don’t understand the tools and gear found in my garage. This is a great cover for a full size firefighter 6 pounder axe that is the standard for serious use. It took a while for me to ever see the need to protect my axe because it’s the ultimate breech tool and lives for crushing through everything in order to save people and control fires. But this is a really great cover that is able to be off the axe in seconds.

My ax came with just a rubber cover on the end of the ax head which did not stay on very well. I purchased this so that the cover would stay on. It fits well and stays on the ax head.

Better than I expected. I now have 2. One for a full size axe and another for a camp axe. It is a little big on both but it ultimately does the job of protecting the edge.

It works for me, I use it teaching Scouts

I bought this sheath for my Cold Steel Trail Boss and it works okay.The buckle and rivets are made of metal and the leather seems to be of pretty good quality (Though I am no expert on leather). There is also a welt which protects the edge of the blade and the stitching seems goodEach piece of leather (Welt, strap, sides, etc.) are 1/8 inch thick. The strap is 14 inches. The side where you insert the axe blade is about 6 and 7/8 inches long and the slit in which the actual blade goes is 5 and 3/4 inches long. The top is about 3 and 3/4 inches long and the bottom is about 2 and 1/2 inches long (Depending on where you consider the start of the curve (See pictures).The reason I bought this sheath was for my Cold Steel Trail Boss, and I am pretty pleased with its quality. The only problem I have (Which I expected when I purchased this sheath) is that it's a bit over an inch bigger than the blade of the Cold Steel Trail Boss. This is not a problem to me since it is one of the cheapest options that seems to be of good quality.The only problem I have with this, which I don't think others have reported is that the side of the rivet that holds the strap that faces the inside of the sheath scratched my axe head a little. This is not a big deal to me and I don't really mind, but I have included pictures so you can tell what I mean.All in all, I gave this sheath five stars because it does its job. it is as described, and it is a good value.

Fits a Council 3.5lb Jersey Axe very well...leather is thick and well finished, immediately applied olive oil to mine and it took three coats in about 5 mins, so it was dry...but it's well made and should last a lifetime with care...

Great product

This product fits well with my hults bruk axe...thank you very much. Shipping was very quick.

Well made mask for a large cutting bit. I used on a Stubi axe and it works well. Does what it for... Stops the axe biting you in transit. Good leather on my sample.

Fits regular axe heads(6.25in x3.75in). I like this case because it allows me to use the opposite side of the cutting edge without removing the sheath.

My axe has a 5.5 inch wide blade and this cover fits perfect. You may get it to fit a blade a little bigger if needed. The leather is not treated but this is not an issue. I just applied a leather treatment to make me feel better.
