The Peavey Dayton Axe with Blade Guard delivers professional-grade felling power through its 3.5-pound Dayton pattern head and 36-inch curved hickory handle, creating a full-sized tool for serious tree work and general axe chores. This American-made axe features forged steel construction with hardness specifications that exceed ANSI standards, hydraulic head seating, and an innovative serrated aluminum wedge system for lasting head retention.

Key Features:

  • 3.5-pound Dayton pattern head
  • 36-inch curved American hickory handle
  • 4.75-inch cutting edge
  • Square poll design
  • Forged steel construction
  • Hand-sharpened tapered bit
  • Hardness of Rc 48-55 extending 1¼ inches from edge
  • Hydraulically seated with serrated aluminum wedge
  • Made in USA

Specifications:

  • Head weight: 3.5 pounds
  • Handle length: 36 inches
  • Cutting edge: 4.75 inches
  • Bit hardness: Rc 48-55 (1¼" from edge)
  • ANSI standard: Exceeds Rc 45-60 requirement
  • Handle material: American hickory
  • Wedge type: Serrated aluminum
  • Finish: Red enamel head, clear lacquer edge

Ideal for:

  • Professional tree felling
  • Firewood production
  • Property clearing
  • Storm cleanup
  • Logging operations
  • Farm and ranch work
  • Heavy-duty splitting
  • Commercial tree service

Benefits:

  • Full-sized head provides maximum striking power
  • 36-inch handle generates optimal leverage
  • Superior heat treatment ensures edge retention
  • Aluminum wedge won't swell or shrink
  • Serrated wedge design improves grip
  • Dried handle minimizes loosening
  • Square poll adds versatility
  • Professional-grade durability

Engineering for Professional Performance: The 3.5-pound Dayton pattern head represents the full-sized standard for serious felling work, with enough mass to drive through substantial timber while maintaining controllable balance. The 4.75-inch cutting edge provides extensive contact area for efficient chip removal with each swing, while the tapered bit geometry allows deep penetration without binding. Council Tool's commitment to exceeding ANSI standards shows in their heat treatment—achieving Rc 48-55 hardness extending 1¼ inches from the edge rather than the minimum ½ inch requirement. This larger zone of properly hardened steel maintains sharpness longer and provides a reserve of quality steel as the blade is sharpened over years of use. The innovative serrated aluminum wedge represents a significant advancement over traditional wooden wedges—aluminum won't compress, swell with moisture, or shrink with drying, while the serrations bite into the handle material for superior grip.

Built for Demanding Work: The 36-inch curved hickory handle provides the reach and leverage necessary for efficient felling cuts, while the curve follows the natural arc of a full swing to reduce wrist strain and improve accuracy. The eye section dried to below 10% moisture content—significantly lower than typical air-dried wood—ensures minimal future shrinkage that could compromise head security. The hydraulic seating process drives the head onto the handle with tremendous force, creating an interference fit tighter than hand-fitting could achieve. The red enamel coating on the head provides visibility and corrosion resistance, while the clear lacquer on the cutting edge prevents rust during storage without interfering with cutting performance. Whether you're dropping trees, bucking logs, splitting rounds, or handling storm cleanup, this full-sized Dayton axe delivers the power and reliability that professional work demands.
