Safe to replace?
A friend asked me to replace the fiberglass handle on his ax with a wooden one. I thought that would be easy until I saw the axe. The eye on this ax is only 1 1/4 x 2/3 inch. If I replace it with a hickory handle that’s trimmed down to fit the eye, will it still be strong enough to use safely?
