I found it in a forest in Jura mountains (France). Do you think I could make an axe handle out of it?

    Hard to tell From the photo, but might be Ash. If so, it would make a great axe handle. But you can of course make an axe handle out of any hardwood, it will mostly be fine.

        Doesn’t look like oak to me. For oak, I look for medullary rays that would appear running perpendicular to the rings on the end grain. I don’t see any of those.
