Review: Bonne qualité. Merci!
Review: The small is a perfect fit for the Helko Werk Light Forster. The 28 inch 2.5 lb head. Ordered it right off the chart and it was spot on. The leather is robust compared to some other brands of axes sheaths. It was dry, nothing a little bock 4 cant handle.

## Features

- Made in USA - by skilled craftsmen and leather makers. These axe or hatchet sheath pieces are an excellent addition to your Helko Werk axes and hatchets with nickel plated rivets and a heavy duty welt. A welt is a strip of leather that the blade edge rests against while sheathed - to provide additional protection to the blade and lengthen the lifespan of the sheath.
- Vegetable-Tanned Saddle Leather - our sheath leather is made from full grain, vegetable tanned cowhide leather. This premium high quality leather is ideal for axe sheath leather, holster leather, leather axe cover for axe and hatchet tools. The Premium and Deluxe sheaths have been treated and infused with oils and waxes for moisture protection. This also helps to soften the leather.
- Treated For Moisture Protection - The treatment process helps to prevent the leather sheath from drying out and cracking through years of use. If they choose, customers can also apply leather conditioners, polishes, or creams to the leather overtime to keep it healthy, supple, and strong. Vegetable tanned leather accepts these treatments nicely.
- Tough, Thick And Durable - An axe or hatchet sheath will help protect your tools and keep them sharp and protected. The leather is strong and will endure years of service. The sheath is fastened together with nickel-plated rivets and operates with an adjustable buckle strap, which may be tightened or loosened to achieve a snug fit.
- Fits Blades Up To 4 Inches Wide - These sheaths are fitted for Helko Werk axes, but will also fit most other brands. Follow our sizing guide to size your bushcraft axe, throwing hatchet, or camp axe to our sheaths to get the right fit.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by D***N on 4 January 2016*

Just received the sheath in the mail today. I bought it for a used Kelly Works Woodslasher ax that did not come with one. When I received the item, I peeled off the UPC sticker from the leather, which removed the finish. I thought it wasn't a big deal, since it wasn't going to look pretty being used in the woods anyway and I could always refinish the leather. Then I put the sheath on the ax for the first time and it fit like a glove, I was initially impressed. When I tried to fasten the buckle for the first time, the buckle came right off at the rivet where it meets the leather. I sent it back for a refund. Update: The owner, Spencer, contacted me and insisted the sheath I received should not have passed quality control and was not the norm. So the sheath was exchanged quickly and the new one works as advertised. Since my ax blade was 3 3/4 inches tip to tip, NOT taking into account the curve of the blade, the small size fit like it was specifically designed for my ax. Spencer also said the UPC sticker is an Amazon process and they are considering shipping the sheaths in bags. The only issue I still see with sheath is there is no welt protecting the blade from the rivets. However, if you don't jam the ax in there or don't swing it with the sheath on, I don't think there will be any damage. What really impressed me was the company's willingness to stand behind their product and correct my issue with the buckle. I think this is truly rare these days. Great customer service!
