Gransfors Bruks Hand Forged Small Forest Axe
Item #: GFB-420
$210.00
From Sweden
Gränsfors Bruks has a huge power hammer on which some very fine axes are forged. The axes being built today are unlike the hundreds of models made in Sweden 100 years ago. Each model was made exactly alike and ground smooth, polished, painted and labeled. That industry is dead, and I think that the huge hammer mentioned above is left over from that time. It is brilliant that Gransfors Bruks has now built a business making axes for hunters, post & beam builders, wood carvers and others who still need fine axes today.
The blade of the Gränsfors Bruks Small Forest Axe is thin and the handle is long enough to allow powerful chopping, but not too long. It will fit into a rucksack, behind the seat of your truck or in a boat. Practical for splitting small sticks for the fire or cutting small diameter limbwood for starter fuel in a fireplace. The axe has a 3-1/4" face and a 19" hickory handle. The head weighs 1 lb. 8 oz. Ships with a grain-leather sheath.
