Last year, a passionate customer purchased a Milano axe head. A few days later, he came back with a handle he had shaped himself for carving. A week later, he presented an improved version.
Step by step, we worked together to perfect the prototype — and that customer has since become a collaborator of La Cognée.
From this meeting was born a unique carving hatchet, where Italian tradition meets Quebec craftsmanship.
Each handle is hand-shaped and balanced to the gram for perfect equilibrium, excellent control, and a natural comfort in hand.
A tool designed not for felling, but for creation — to hew, shape, carve, and give form to the material, letting the gesture speak.
Note: actual head weight may vary slightly, as each piece is hand-forged and finished individually on an anvil.

Designed for carving, green woodworking, and shaping tool handles, spoons, spatulas, and more.
Each handle is unique. The variations in grain, color, and species reflect the handmade nature of the work and the personality of the craftsman.
A tool both simple and profound — built to last and to inspire.
