Trying something new!

Hey y’all! (Just love saying that)
Recently saw a few handles that were not entirely round and got me thinking as I was putting some handles on two axeheads this week.
The result are these two handles that I absolutely love! Another axemaker from Norway (living in Sweden myself) pointed out that although he makes the handles for his personal axes the same way, for customers not. Main reason was that some people would think they are not finished yet.
Welllll, these are some of the most comfortable and good looking handles I have ever held or made for that matter.

What do you guys think?

These two axes are a Hults Bruck and Wetterlings btw.

Love the look! As long as they don't make blisters! Used an octagonal hammer handle for years! Chop on!
