Axes are being forged in Sheffield again for the first time in decades, after a father-and-daughter team revived the city’s lost tradition.
Robin Wood, 59, and his daughter, JoJo, 30, teach courses in spoon carving, a craft that requires the use of an axe. The Woods became frustrated that there was no UK-produced axe they could recommend to students. The best option was made in Sweden, which was expensive and often difficult to source.
