  • This is to be measured from tip to tip in a straight line. 
• No second bits or spikes on the opposite side of the axe head from the forward facing bit of the axe.

  • If the judge determines that a throwers axe has broken during a match the thrower must provide a replacement axe to be verified and approved by the judge or use an in-house axe. 
  • If they do not provide a second non-broken axe within 1 minute they will have the rest of their match throws counted as 0.
• The thrower is allowed 1 practice throw with the new axe before continuing the match. 
• Axe Heads must be one solid piece of metal held tightly to the handle.
  • Axe Heads that have become loose are dangerous and will not be considered for league play.
  • Axes Heads that have become loose or have an axe head that is easily removed (ie. heads that are clamped or held into the handle by screw or pin) are not legal for sanctioned events, unless otherwise approved by the HOUSE.
