I recently acquired my great grandfathers axe. The handle was already recessing when I got it but I was going to use it until failure and today is that day after a few over strikes I split the neck. After an exhaustive search I haven't been able to find a handle that is close to the handle on it. I bought 3 handles one from ace, one from homedepot, and one from true value. none of them live up to the handle on it currently the axe I have. The new ones don't have the same shap and all 3 new ones are substantially thicker and uncomfortable in my hands. I watched a youtube video of a guy replacing his axe handle he took a new handle and reshaped it to be similar to the old one. is this my only option or are there other resources for this?
