You can buy similar in the UK but not quite the same. The fire axe style with the size and shape I want seem to be mainly available in US. There are import duties to pay, and as I said, I ordered a smaller one recently without any issue (vintage too but too small, I want the big one).
Axes are NOT on the banned import list:

So there is nothing untoward about my request. Amazon just don't post everything international. Some things they do, some they don't. I don't think there's a huge market for these axes.
So, if anyone can help me out I'd appreciate it.
