Gransfors Bruk 430 - Scandinavian Forest Axe (Hickory Handle)

The Gränsfors Scandinavian Forest Axe is a more professional axe, ideal for felling larger trees and for limbing a felled tree. The axe is forged to a curved bit, making it suitable for cutting into fresh, resinous wood such as spruce or pine. The long handle also gives more power to the cut.

• The Axe features a classic untouched finish straight from the forge giving the Hatchet it’s timeless look.
• Comes with the edge sharpened and polished in a convex grind, razor sharp and ready to work.
• The head has been treated with oil for added protection.
• Supplied with a Premium Veg Tanned Leather sheath.
• The steel is stuck around 60 times under a power hammer, this refines the grain structure of the steel increasing the durability and edge retention of the Hatchet.
• The cutting edge is hardened and tempered to a hardness of 57 Rockwell C enabling it to hold a very sharp edge even after many sharpening’s.
• The American Hickory handle is treated in a 200deg Celsius bath of linseed oil & treated with beeswax to improve flexibility & provide protection from the elements.
