Gränsfors Wildmarksbeil

Wildlife Hatchet

A small, light axe which can be easily carried, masked with its leather sheath, inside your pack or on your belt. Even with a small axe you can manage much: cut branches in the back-yard or chop and split sticks for a camp fire. This little hatchet awakes in many of us memories and dreams of exciting camps and adventures. The hatchet has a 3" face and a 14" hickory handle and the head weighs 1 lb. It comes with a grain-leather sheath.

GRÄNSFORS AXES ARE FORGED by very professional smiths. The proof of this professionalism is that they are able to forge axes with such precision that no supplementary work, to hide mistakes in the forging, is needed.
At Gränsfors Bruks the forging craft is allowed to take its time. The smiths do not work by the piece. They take care and do the right forging from the beginning. There is no need to stone or grind or smooth or paint the axes in order to hide or eliminate imperfections in the forging.
A smith at Gränsfors Bruks has nothing to hide and he is proud of his professional standards. When he is satisfied with his work and has accepted his axe, he marks the head with his initials beside the company’s crown label.
