The hardwood wedge supplied will span the full width of the handles eye-wood and sometimes a bit more so will almost certainly need adjusting to fit. The species of the wooden wedge may vary but usually oak.

Finished with a light wax, may require a light sanding when fitted. Always glue wooden wedges in place.

Please be aware that handles exceeding 62cm in length do not qualify for our standard Royal Mail Tracked48 or Tracked24 services, as they surpass Royal Mail's maximum length restriction. To accommodate these longer items, we currently use Parcelforce services, which accept parcels of this size but come at a higher cost than our standard shipping rates.

We understand the inconvenience this may cause and are actively seeking more cost-effective shipping alternatives for these oversized items. Your understanding is much appreciated.
