About this item

  • The axe head is hand forged and made from Swedish axe steel in a foundry that has been in operation since 1697.
  • As part of the hand grinding production process, the steel is struck multiple times thereby increasing its density and resulting in more durability of the axe.
  • The head is constructed in such a way that there is a tempered zone designed to hold a very sharp edge even after many sharpenings..
  • The straight hickory handle is treated with linseed oil.
  • Each axe comes with a traditional leather protective sheath that is embellished with some unique Swedish decorative elements.The axe is shipped in its own storage box and comes with a detailed users manual.

I've been splitting wood for heat for a little over four years now, and split to stay afloat during the beginning of the pandemic. From that I can say that I want to love this hatchet. It's as sharp as a razor and as light as a feather. If you're not confident and don't have a lot of experience with this, get a cheaper tool to practice with.Pros:-Amazing steel-Nice strong handle-You can swing all day with how light it isCons:-The edge is slightly too sharp for splitting wood with a 6" diameter, and because of that the edge will chip after tapping a stone from a bad swing-The handle being a bit long is going to cause an overswing with novice splitters-Without a wrap, the handle will roll in your hands causing a possible slip and possible serious injuryFor splitting, it's a good hatchet. It's not amazing, but it's good. The alternative hatchet for this is the Grandfors Bruk's version if youre looking for a similar quality at around the same price. If you're getting this for backpacking though, I think it perfect for that. Hopefully this helps someone out. It's as honest of a review as I can give.
