Once again, thank you for being a part of the Wolf Valley Forge Axe team! My family and I greatly appreciate each of you, and I look forward to building your custom axes in 2023.
Good afternoon folks! We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas season, and we hope your year is wrapping up well, as we near the close of 2022.
Did you know that we have several options of personalization for your axe? One of those options is a set of initials, acronym or year stamped into the underside of the axe poll! We were honored to do this special set of axes for Mr. Eric, which were stamped with his two children’s years of birth as well as 2022. What a special idea, Mr. Eric!
He ordered a Chipper Axe with a Chocolate Brown Hickory Handle and a Trekker Axe with a Chestnut Hickory Handle. Both axes came with a Dark Brown Leather Sheath.
For more information about our personalization and other custom options, you can check them out HERE. Thank you so much for stopping by the blog today, and we hope you have a wonderful weekend out there!
We hope you all had a very blessed Thanksgiving weekend. Yes, you read that right: it is Free Axe Puck Week! You see, our Cyber Monday Sale is more like a Cyber Week Sale from Monday through Saturday!!!

In fact, we’re hosting our Wolf Valley Forge Photo Contest once again this year!!!
Is anyone excited?? I know, we are!
For those of you new here, here’s how it works…
This contest is not about photography skills, but it is about sending in your tasteful photos for an entry into our drawing for a Wolf Valley Forge Axe, shipped free to your US address! That’s right, you could win an axe here!
We have several categories for your photos, and we will be the judge of how many entries you receive in the random drawing, based on the type of picture(s) you submit. So, here are your options…
A photo of your Wolf Valley Forge axe. (1 entry)
A photo of you and your hunting trophy. (1 entry)
A photo of your Wolf Valley Forge axe with its work (examples – a tree it felled, cutting kindling, a camp setting it assisted with, etc.) (2 entries) –
Cell phone photos are welcome! Please do try to make them clear, not blurry, but no professional photography skills required. We just want your photos! 🙂
The fine print…1. Please only send one photo per time/setting/event. You can send multiple pictures, but they need to be from different times. 2. Please specify if you don’t want your picture posted on the Wolf Valley Forge site. We may not post every picture, but we have disclosure to, unless otherwise noted. 3. Preferably photos should be fairly recent, at least within the last couple years. 4. International entries are welcome, but shipping charges will apply. Thank you!5. Last year’s Photo Contest Winner isn’t able to win again this year, sorry! But we’d still love to see your photo adventures and share them on the website!
Please email your photos to: ike@wolfvalleyforge.com.
The deadline for photo submissions is November 30th, 2022.
We’re so excited about seeing your 2022 axes and adventure photos coming in, and look forward to sharing them with everyone!! So, you ready??? Set? GO!!!
