I’ve got a splitting axe handle that’s broken. And no, I didn’t smack it on a round; it seems to have failed with normal use.
Does anyone know if these are replaceable? Doesn’t look like it to me.
Thx,
Scott.

They are.
Cut it off just short of the head, drill as much as you can of the remainder out of the eye of the head. Use a chisel and hammer and split the pieces that are left out of the eye.
Clean the eye, mix up some epoxy and replace the handle, epoxying into place.
Cool. Thanks.Scott.
Here I can go to any of the local farm supply stores and they have replacement handles , some with the epoxy kits included.
They can't get your Goat if you don't tell them where it is hidden.
I'll give it a look. I'm sorry to see this one busted. Of the three that I have, five, six, and eight pounders, this one (the 5) is definitely my favorite.Scott.
where did it come from???
warrenty it....
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming
WOW!!! What a Ride!
Forget the primal scream, just ROAR!!!
Thought of that, but it's been a few years, and about 25 chords of wood, and I don't have a receipt. I don't mind buying a handle as long as they're available.
still try to warrenty it... it may have more than a 5 year limit on it as in lifetime...
and yes, replacement handles are to be had...
