Important Notice Regarding Changes in USA Policy to De Minimis Shipments: Due to changes made by the US government and the removal of the De Minimis exemptions for American customers, many postal services worldwide (including Canada Post) have suspended small package shipments to the USA until such time that they can fully comply with the reporting and administration requirements the change imposes. As a result, we are unable to use postal methods to ship orders until further notice. Orders can be shipped via FedEx only, and all duties, tariffs, brokerage and clearance charges will be covered by the shipping fee charged.

The Velicut Double Bit Saddle Axe is a portable, highly versatile pack axe uniquely designed to offer the ability to cut, shave, carve, notch, and split through the use of two blade angles (one on each side). Like all Velvicut axes, the Saddle Axe is forged from 5160 alloy steel for maximum performance and edge retention.

The edge is flat ground, providing maximum bite when using, and phantom bevels in the axe head aids with the removal of the bit after strikes. The left bit is ground to 25 degrees - excellent for fine work: shaving, slicing, carving, while the right bit is ground at a steeper 32 degrees for heavier tasks: notching, splitting, hewing.

Together, this double bit axe's blades provide versatility and power, while still remaining eminently packable - earning it's name as the go-to axe traditionally carried in a saddle bag while on horseback.
