Hults Bruk Åby Forest Axe

Hults Bruk Åby Forest Axe

The Hultafors Hults Bruk Åby Forest Axe is a versatile tool perfect for a variety of tasks, from shelter building and firewood processing to carving and precision work. Its long, thin ergonomic handle, crafted from American hickory and treated with linseed oil for enhanced durability, minimizes weight while maximizing striking force. The hand-forged Swedish steel head, struck 40-60 times to increase density and durability, features a straighter edge and grind with a slight convexity. A convenient finger notch below the head allows for increased precision. The axe arrives sharpened, polished, and ready to use, complete with a leather sheath. The Åby axe is named after the village near Hults Bruk where many forge workers resided in the mid-20th century.
