Hand Forged Double Bit Damascus Axe with Curved Hardwood Handle
This hand forged double bit Damascus axe delivers dual cutting performance in a balanced working design. JW SteelCrafts forges the layered steel head for strength and edge retention, then fits it to a curved hardwood handle for control and power transfer.
Key Features
- Hand forged Damascus steel double bit head
- Two functional cutting edges
- Curved solid hardwood handle
- Balanced weight distribution for controlled swings
- Workshop finished and sharpened
Double Bit Axe Advantage
A double bit axe provides two working edges. You can maintain one edge for heavier chopping and the other for cleaner cutting tasks. This configuration increases versatility in camp, workshop, and outdoor environments.
Damascus Steel Construction
The head forms through repeated forging and layering of high carbon steels. This process increases structural integrity and creates a visible Damascus pattern across both blades. Each axe carries a unique steel pattern.

Product Care for JW SteelCrafts Hand-Forged Products
To ensure the longevity and beauty of your hand-forged JW SteelCrafts products, follow these essential care instructions:
- Regular Cleaning
Wipe your knives, swords, axes, and rings with a soft cloth to remove dust and debris. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap solution and a non-abrasive cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasives that could damage the steel’s finish. - Dry Thoroughly
After cleaning, ensure your product is completely dried. This helps prevent water spots, rust, or corrosion, particularly on blades and steel surfaces exposed to moisture. - Proper Storage
Store your hand-forged products in a dry, cool place to prevent oxidation or rust. For long-term storage, consider applying a thin layer of oil (e.g., mineral oil or gun oil) to the metal surfaces, or using a rust inhibitor. When storing knives and swords, keep them in protective sheaths or pouches to prevent contact with other materials. - Avoid Impact
While designed for strength and durability, avoid dropping or striking your steel products against hard surfaces. This can cause damage to the blade, edge, or overall integrity of the piece. - Edge Maintenance (For Knives & Swords)
Periodically sharpen the blades to maintain their cutting edge. Use a proper sharpening stone or take your product to a professional for maintenance. Always sharpen in the correct direction to preserve the blade’s integrity. - Routine Inspection
Regularly inspect your products for any signs of wear, rust, or damage. If you notice any issues, reach out to us for maintenance, restoration, or repair services.
By following these care instructions, your JW SteelCrafts products will retain their craftsmanship, functionality, and beauty for years to come.
