The Peavey Boys Axe is Council Tool's 2-1/4 lb Dayton pattern axe on a 28 in curved hickory handle, sold by Peavey Manufacturing with a blade guard.

It's a mid-size axe between a hatchet and a full-size felling axe. The forged tool steel head has a hand-sharpened, tapered bit for cutting and light splitting, tempered to Rc 48-55 for 1-1/4 in behind the edge. The eye of the handle is dried below 10 percent moisture to help keep the head tight.

John Pickett Council, a farmer, outdoorsman and tool inventor, founded Council Tool in 1886. The fourth and fifth generations of the Council family run it today, and it makes its axes at its plant in Lake Waccamaw, North Carolina.
