Axes with rubberized grip
Rubberized grip
— in this case, a handle equipped with rubber overlays is meant; the ax itself can be made of any material, but most often it is metal or fibreglass. Rubber has a number of advantages over these materials in terms of user comfort and safety: it is non-slip, provides a secure grip, and minimizes vibrations transmitted to the user's hand. The latter reduces not only fatigue, but also the risk of the ax rebounding in case of an unsuccessful hit on an elastic material (or a material lying on an elastic lining). Yes, and purely to the touch, rubber is more pleasant — it is relatively soft, and besides, it does not cool down in the cold as much as fibreglass or, moreover, metal.| rubberized grip | clear | Save List |
