Questions & Answers

To protect a meat cleaver with a nine inch cutting blade section, I will use a leather covered scabbard. Are there any long blade versions of this product available?

Unfortunately, we do not make anything that would fit something of that nature. Hope you have a successful career.

What is the best height and width for a 13" Husqvarna ?

Hello, we do not know the exact blade dimension of the Husqvarna hatchet, but we believe it should fit with no problem. In accordance with the hatchet blade length dimensions, a hatchet's blade length cannot exceed 3 inches If that hatchet has a length of 3/4 inches, then a 12 inch strap should fit just fine. The strap should be long enough to wrap around the hatchet's Generally, these sheaths are large enough to fit the majority of hatchets , unless they are unusually large. Please accept our sincere gratitude for the information provided. Feel free to contact us if you have North America is a part of the Helko Group

Is the tag extension possible for a longer period of time? The blade of my maul measures 9 inches from back to front. Can I get a medium size?

You are still going to have to purchase a new sheath for your 9" blade, since I believe this is too small for yours. Instead, check out their website and see what else is available. I highly recommend Helko Werk products. I am pleased with the strength and durability of the buckle Originally purchased the large as the size chart indicated large for a 5 1/2" blade, but it stretched out perfectly with use. *br>I have a 5 3/8" ax blade and I ordered the large for it, but it is a bit too big.

Do you have a cold steel trail boss that will fit this?

The Trail Boss is not something we manufacture, so we cannot say whether or not it will fit because we lack the specifications to determine its size. Some customers however claim that we offer a Medium sheath size that fit perfectly with the trail boss. Sheaths that fit blades of up to 4 inches in diameter will fit the medium sheath 5/8" in diameter. If your axe blade is measured in a straight line from heel to toe, and if the dimensions of the blade meet our sheath sizes, then it will fit.

For those who use large, heavy iron axes, we have a sheath built for them
5/5

In my ideal world, I would have liked to find a sheath with a leather boot for the pick end of my "True Temper Kelly Standard Kelly Works" 6Lbs axe head. But this leather sheath is perfect for what I need. An axe used by firefighters is a classic piece of tool. One of my favorites is that it is very old and tarnished/pitted up, and I particularly enjoy it. The fact that I don't even know if axes of this size are still available makes me believe that finding a sheath that covers the front blade and back pick of the axe is unlikely. Knowing how much time I spent on the internet looking for them, I came up with one. leather sections in the sheath arrived stiff and crimped with a well-fitting (stainless steel?) construction, and the leather sections arrived in layers of 1/8" thick leather. It is available with a range of Besides the 2 pieces of leather in the front and back panels of the sheath, there's a third strip of leather between them that rests on the blade end, preventing the blade from coming into like that the sheath has a heat-stamped (or otherwise pressed in) logo on the pretty side. I find the logo to be attractive. On the blade of my axe, there are 5 cutting/chopping edge segments. I have an iron 25" long and it is hard to find a proper scabbard/sheath to fit over it, and it is even more difficult with a belt long enough to wrap around the handle and buckle tightly. In the pictures, you will see my axe with a sheath attached. yet finished (I am working on it for my younger brother for Christmas), so the handle hasn't yet been permanently installed, but I did mock it up to test the reach of the belt for the sheath and it fits of course. There will only be room for the buckle to buckle into the last 1 to 2 holes, or at the very end maybe 3 holes if I stretch the leather, but that's fine with
I do intend to coat the sheath in an old blacksmith paste recipe made of beeswax, turpentine, and boiled water. It only needs a few drops of linseed oil, but that's an optional step, so the sheath is ready to use As far as I am concerned, this is an incredible price. There's no doubt in my mind that it's worth the investment.

This is a fantastic sheath for the price
5/5

The axe sheath I was using a few weeks ago was going to earn 2 stars. Since a death in the family, I did not have the chance to put the sheath on my axe when I bought it a few months ago. The strap split almost perfectly in half when I finally got it on the axe with the rivet near the end. In light of the fact that its return date was months past, I was very disappointed. Helko contacted me through Amazon simply to let them know I was disappointed. At first I had planned to punch another hole in the strap and rivet it myself, but I decided to send them a quick email instead. Being that we were only talking about a $15 axe sheath, I didn't expect a response. As a result, I was pleasantly surprised to receive a reply from the company almost immediately, apologizing for what had happened. The Helko North America rep sent me a replacement sheath within a week and even included some oil with it. As a result of the experience I had, I have the highest confidence in the company and the product and would purchase it.

I can put my restored Collins "Boy's Axe" in it like a bug in a rug
5/5

I encountered a new hobby over the pandemic Using old tools so they can work again. The old axe in the picture is the sixth one I've made from a rusted piece that I received as a hunk of metal. Having replaced the rotted handle with a similar 29 inch handle of the same size and length, it should work again. In the interest of being able to carry it with me as a backup in my truck, I had it placed in my truck tool box. My other axes that I've restored have also been fitted with the following sheaths Working with leather for a double-breasted jacket I would recommend weaving leather for a heavy single-piece jacket Hide and Drink for a hatchet (ok to good), Bit (ok to I would say that for my particular application, this is the best sheathe I've purchased so far. Despite the tight fit, it is comfortable. Despite the fact that the craftmanship is excellent, the execution is flawed. This is a 5 star rating.

Buying this one will give you solid results when it comes to ax
4/5

The axe mask I purchased was excellent, and the ordering process was simple and easy to make sure the mask matched my axe. Is there a reason it's not a 5? I think it's bad for a couple reasons. Please note that these are purely my thoughts. In the first place, the rivets holding the leather together could have been It seems to me that this will be the weak point of this mask and it may eventually come out of the In addition, the pattern of rivets has very little curve, so that when the mask is on, it is a little wobbly. I don't like the way it looks like this. It won't fall off, but I don't like how it looks. It seems like high quality leather is used in getting this case, and it is well built. Even though I don't like the rivets, they are well anchored in the leather and very well done. Although the leather is very stiff right now, that is to be expected, it will break in more as the months go on. I like the long strap used to attach the mask to the axe, since even though it's only designed for the axe it's currently attached to, I have several other axe heads that once hung will need the extra length, and I can just order more of the In conclusion, if buying a generic axe mask, this is an excellent option, and most likely I will buy this same mask again for all the others as I finish them up.

Now you can fit your axe with a sheath
5/5

In shopping around for a sheath to protect my vintage Kelly Axe Company B10 camping axe from damage and to protect me while carrying it, I found that I could get a sheath from Kelly Axe Company itself. A test cut my finger to see how sharp it was. It quickly became clear to me that the manufacturers and/or vendors of axe sheaths were not doing a good job of listing the INTERNAL dimension of their product. It's my third purchase of a Helko. I was unable to use the first one. It was too big for the second. Nevertheless, this was the perfect one. My only question is whether this is a keeper or if I should shorten the strap and put neatsfoot oil on it. It was decided to send back the first two. The price seems high, however, considering that you only get a small amount of leather. At least I can use it with.

This sheath is perfect
5/5

I unfortunately lost the original sheath that I was using for my small axe and was using a homemade cover that did not fit well and offered little Recently, I came across one that actually fits me after looking at a few different ones over the last month. One of the most common problems with 5" ones was that they Up to a 6 inch bit should be able to fit in here. As soon as I had the length set, I shortened the strap. This has now been returned to my saw kit and is ready for clearing some deadfall in the back country. The leather was of good quality and the rivets well made.
