Osage Orange

We’re proud to offer Osage Orange handles in mixed grade. While we do not specify #1 or #2 grade, Osage Orange is a strong material excellent for a user or wall hanger.

These handles are elegantly and ergonomically sculpted, ending in a generous palm swell. The handle comes with a “cone-end” below the palm swell. This feature presents multiple benefits to the handle, such as protection against damage to the palm swell when fitting. Once fitted you have the option of leaving it as-is, cutting it off to the curvature of the swell or rounding it over to add a classy, vintage style bulb end. Your handle will come with 1 walnut wedge.

We don’t recommend burning our handles as this can create cracks and may compromise the integrity of the handle. Any burned handles will not be guaranteed.

Did you know?

Osage Orange is one of the best handle materials available. It actually has a higher Janka hardness rating, and higher flexibility rating than hickory making it an excellent choice for both a user or a wall hanger!

it’s a great handle no problems at all .

perfect

This handle is great, perfect grain, perfect shape for me. I hung a Vintage Plumb Michigan pattern and now have an amazing splitting axe. Will definitely order more!

This handle is exactly what I've been looking for

This handle is exactly what I've been looking for. Extremely well made, well packaged and efficiently delivered. I think my Grandkids will still be using it decades from now. My only recommendation would be to brand your company's logo on it - I'd bet they'll be collectors items some day... Thanks!

Was slightly disappointed in the double bit as it had everything a grade 3 would have bad grain and bark inclusions or dark spots. Other than that amazing handles

Seemed to be exact what i thought they would be and more nice pieces and very good price on them for what they were

Very blessed to be able to purchase grade 3 for my price point theyre great

Everything was great amazing handles for being grade 3 and nice shipping package

Handles

Fantastic handle! Grain/shape/feel is awesome!

Fantastic handle! Grain/shape/feel is awesome! Not sure how they could make one any better or why this would be classed as a grade 2 but man oh man, what a beauty!

It’s a wonderfully crafted handle

The best!

I love these handles! Hoffman does octagonal handles perfectly, octagonal right until the palm swell and then smooth. All the benefits of both, none of the downsides. As per usual all the handles I bought were dead straight with perfect grain orientation and free of all defects.
