Gransfors Bruks Wildlife Hatchet Hand Made In Sweden ...













This Gränsfors Bruk Wildlife Hatchet. is extra nice!!!


The handle has long, beautiful parallel grain pattern and it is dark in color indicating that it is made from hickory heartwood.


If you want only the best and will not settle for anything less, this one is for you! The Wildlife Hatchet that you see in the photos is the actual hatchet that you will receive with your purchase


The Gränsfors Bruk Wildlife Hatchet is a traditional scouting and camping axe. It is like a small axe with plenty of power capable of lopping off large branches or splitting small logs for the campfire. It can be carried easily in your rucksack or backpack . The sheath covers the edge and the top part of the poll which stops the axe head from cutting into your rucksack or backpack.


The Handle: The handle on Gränsfors Bruk axes was designed by Hans Erik Persson. Gränsfors Bruk handles are made from hickory. Hickory is the perfect wood because it is both strong and flexible. It has long, parallel fibres which increases the life of the handle. To further improve the quality of each handle, it is soaked in hot linseed oil then treated with beeswax to make it more resistant to dirt and water

Smiths: Each Gränsfors Bruk Axe has the initials of the master smith who actually forged it stamped on the Axe head to proudly highlight the excellence behind the workmanship. The Wildlife Hatchet listed here was forged by TT – Tobias Thelin.

The Wildlife Hatchet will be delivered to you complete with a hickory handle, a full-grain leather sheath, and the Gränsfors Axe handbook.

Manufacturer: Gränsfors Bruk has been making handcrafted axes for over 100 years. Each axe is signed with the smith’s initials as a guarantee of quality. The company is located in the Swedish village of Gränsfors in northern Hälsingland. The forge sits at the heart of Gränsfors village and you can hear the rhythmic pounding from the forge as you approach.
