Hults Bruk Aneby Hunting Axe (2 lbs) with 20" Curved Handle

Hults Bruk Aneby Hunting Axe (2 lbs) with 20" Curved Handle is a great axe for camping or hunting designed to offer considerable power and leverage in a compact size. Ideally suited for light forest work, splitting smaller firewood and felling smaller sized trees. It can be comfortably used with one or both hands, and features a rounded poll for skinning. The axe head is hand-forged and made from Swedish axe steel in a foundry that has been in operation since 1697. As part of the hand grinding production process, the steel is struck multiple times thereby increasing its density and resulting in more durability of the axe. The head is constructed in such a way that there is a tempered zone designed to hold a very sharp edge even after many sharpenings. The curved hickory handle is treated with linseed oil. Each axe comes with a traditional leather protective sheath. The axe is shipped in its own storage box and comes with a detailed users manual.
