We’re Headed to SAFRE 2025: Join Axe & Awl Leatherworks in Raleigh

On August 6th the Axe & Awl team heads to Raleigh for the South Atlantic Fire Expo taking place at the Raleigh Convention Center. The event runs August 6th-9th with classes taking place everyday. The expo portion of this event is the 8th & 9th. This is when you can come and check out our booth #114 along with Hook & Irons Co. Stop by and visit Axe & Awl Leatherworks at SAFRE 2025!

What is SAFRE 2025?

The South Atlantic Fire Expo is a regional fire-rescue conference, convention, and expo held in Raleigh, North Carolina. Envisioned by the NCSFA as an extension and expansion of the required annual Conference and Business Meeting in 2009, SAFRE has grown into one of the largest and most popular regional fire-rescue service conferences, conventions and expos.
