Elmer Roush: Mace - Hickory

This mace from Elmer Roush is the perfect piece for all your smashin' bashin' and general demolishing needs. The head is mild steel, hand forged with a four-sided profile. Patterned after a 10th century mace found in Denmark, the profile makes for an excellent impact surface. The head features a hammered patina finish from its creation for an almost 'historic' look, with Elmer's makers marks forged in the head. The head sits on a hickory pole with a linseed oil and beeswax finish for both looks and to protect the wood. Comes with a spec card written by Elmer.

Note: Each head is hand forged and hand-hung. They are all going to be a little different in shape and size. These are hung in one climate, shipped to another climate, and then shipped to you. It is 100% natural for some wiggle in the head to be present after changing climates. If it goes to an area more humid than Arizona, it might firm up all on its own, or else a small amount of effort by the end user can get things locked in tight as can be. It is expected for the end-user to have to maintain an axe and handle, so don't worry - axe users have been managing this just fine for a few (actually, a lot more than a few) thousand years, so you can too!
