A leather strike guard that protects the handle closest to the axe head in the event of an overstrike. The guard (also known as a handle protector or an axe collar) is tied around the handle using the included leather cords. The strike guard is made in Sweden with hides from Swedish cows and it is manufactured with the greatest care for the animals and the environment. The leather is vegetable tanned full grain leather for the best possible durability and the natural treatment means that it will age beautifully when worn.
