Collection: Adirondack Double Bit axe handles

This handle style was most likely conceived by a clever chopper in the “North Woods,” the Adirondack region of New York State, who used the wrong bit one too many times. Interestingly, the J. M. Tatem Co. of Eastford Connecticut referred to this pattern as the “double bitt knob” with no mention of Adirondack in their 1933 catalog. We make these in a 28" cruiser measuring 2 5/16" x 13/16+" at the shoulder, and 28", 30" and 32" measuring 2 ⅞+" x 15/16+" at the shoulder. Should you need a larger or smaller eye, let us know using the special instructions box on the cart page.
