Product Information

Description

The distinguishing feature of the Gränsfors Hand Hatchet is its short handle relative to the size of its head. It is extremely practical to carry in your rucksack on forest walks, or to keep in the car as it takes up very little space. The shape of the sheath, which covers the edge and the top part of the poll, also stops the axe head cutting into your rucksack. The Hand Hatchet makes an excellent scouting and camping axe. Despite its short handle, the axe can be used to fell small trees. It is also great for limbing and for splitting kindling and firewood.
The axe is delivered with a sheath.

  • Length with handle:  9.44″
  • Weight 1.3lb.
  • Sheath in vegetable-tanned leather

Gränsfors Bruk has committed over 100 years to manufacturing and developing axes.  Every axe is specifically designed to meet a particular function, with a tireless focus on high quality and area of use.  A considerable amount of effort has also been put into producing axes with sound green credentials, avoiding any unnecessary consumption of natural resources.

When it comes to the quality and feel of the axes, much depends on the experience and skill of the individual craftsman.  Each axe is signed with the smith’s initials as a guarantee of quality.
