M/DB
 

Ideal for harvesting small rods, working material up and cleaving.

Product Description

Made by Morris of Dunsford, Devon. A very well balanced forged billhook for general work, not too heavy, slightly bigger hook than the Newtown and a blunted nose. Difficult to beat.

 

Product Specification

5.5" oval handle made of ash, blade length approx 9", slightly bigger hook than the Newtown, the hook tip is blunted, long equal bevels. Tang runs full length of the handle.

Additional notes

Near the handle end of the blade the Devon has a notch which we understand allows you to drop a knotted loop into, the loop hangs from the wrist. This apparently takes some of strain out of holding the hook for extended peroiods of time. We have never tried this, let me know if you know different.  The edge will need some final honing

Don't forget split leather sheaths are available for this billhook
