A right handed person making a stroke down and to the left or horizontal stroke moving right to left would typically use a \u003cstrong\u003eleft bevel axe\u003c\/strong\u003e, but a right handed person making a vertical stroke or swinging down and to the right to carve will typically use a \u003cstrong\u003eright bevel axe\u003c\/strong\u003e.  For someone that is left handed, then the opposite would be the case.  Depending on what you are doing, both bevels may be needed to carve effectively.  If you are unsure of which bevel you would prefer we recommend taking a look of one of the double beveled models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe axe is delivered with a sheath.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gransfors Bruk","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32398447378526,"sku":"475-3","price":285.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0170\/8972\/4516\/files\/gransfors-bruk-gransfors-bruk-swedish-carving-axe-right-bevel.jpg?v=1743608922","url":"https:\/\/oppalachianoutfitters.shop\/products\/gransfors-bruk-swedish-carving-axe-right-bevel","provider":"Appalachian Outfitters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
