What makes handmade axes better than conveyor-type counterparts?
Things that are made by hand are always valued more than mass production. Part of the reason for this is in such important, albeit subjective, moments as the soul of the master, which he put into his masterpiece, a piece of his individuality, which is not found in conveyor-type goods, and so on.
But there is also a practical component to the popularity of handmade products. Firstly, when working on them, only high-quality materials are chosen. After all, not only the durability of the thing depends on this, but any craftsman wants his creation to last as long as possible, but also his health. And secondly, often a person with his own hands produces a much higher quality product than a machine that takes its toll on mass production. The latter is especially true when we talk about axes.
The skill of a blacksmith who makes various objects from metal, including weapons such as swords and axes, lies not only in the forging itself. He also manually eliminates all kinds of irregularities from the surface, removes microcracks and other defects that affect the wear of objects. Whereas in mass production, these important points are not paid so much attention, since they slow down the process too much. To compensate for this, factories often simply thicken the metal layer. Because of this, the same factory axes are less elegant, heavier, most likely not as durable and, of course, devoid of individuality.
Axes and hammers as a gift
The complete opposite of such an axe is the product of the Ukrainian brand Topor & Molot. For
this simple, but understandable and practical, exactly like their forged products, signboard hides two guys who make stunning axes and hammers with their own hands. At first glance at them, you immediately encounter what you expect from handmade products - bright individuality.
Their handmade masterpieces are made in the ancient Scandinavian style, which takes us back to the times when the Vikings were the storm of the seas. With the help of such axes and war hammers, they terrorized all of Europe. With such a weapon in hand, any person will feel like an invulnerable berserker. And one of the axes is made in the image and likeness of the «Leviathan», the weapon of Kratos from the video game “God of War”. He received it just when fate brought him to the snowy expanses of Scandinavia.
Since the reputation of the blacksmith duo Topor & Molot directly depends on the quality of their products, they are more interested than anyone else in the best materials for their axes, which you will find in the Fama online store. Therefore, high-carbon steel is used in the manufacture of the attachment, which is characterized by increased hardness and wear resistance. The handle is made of the strongest wood, such as oak. Thanks to such a careful selection of high-quality materials, forged beauties not only become durable, but also the chance of the head flying off the ax is reduced to a minimum.
Axes from Topor & Molot are primarily decorative weapons, which are designed to decorate the interior of your houses and apartments. Their strict beauty and impressive formidable appearance will definitely attract the eyes of your guests. It is also a great gift for lovers of cold weapons and Nordic aesthetics. However, although the aesthetic part is in the foreground in Topor & Molot products, the axe blades are sharpened and one hundred percent suitable for felling trees.

People want to buy something that has its own individuality and can reflect the values of its owner. Cold weapons from the Ukrainian brand Topor & Molot serves exactly this purpose. Strict, even to some extent brutal axes and hammers will definitely find their buyer.
