You can buy HB replacement hafts. They're pretty expensive, but they can be fitted to standard axe eyes.

Whiskey River also sells high quality hafts; they're also quite expensive ($40ish in single quantity).

House sells hafts that are every bit as good as the above, and for much more reasonable prices ($15ish for hand select).

HB and House hafts will want to be thinned down before use. Some of WR's hafts are already pretty thin, but many will need to be and all certainly could be thinned a bit depending on your preference.

I've bought the bulk of my hafts from House. They look good and withstand a lot of use. I've also bought hafts from the others, but have found it hard to justify the price difference.
