HULTAFORS - FORESTRY HATCHET

Regular price $135.00
/

A small axe for outdoor use in forests and open land. Made from blasted and clear-lacquered ironwork, it is also suitable for work in the garden. The shaft is curved and made from hickory. Leather axe sheath is included

The axe is hand-forged and made from Swedish axe steel using traditional methods in use since 1697.

The steel is stuck several times, increasing its density and thereby the durability of the axe.

Has a clear tempered zone within which the axe can be sharpened whilst not detracting from the strength of the edge.

The shaft is made from hickory and treated with linseed oil.

  • Ironwork head features a clear lacquer to ward off corrosion.
  • Head hung using a standard eye to haft mount, making it easy to replace the haft (as this head will outlast the handle).
  • Heat-treated axe head is softer towards the handle and harder along the edge.
  • Tough hickory haft provides a surprising amount of mechanical advantage for its size.
  • Classic linseed oil finish on the hickory haft.
  • Handsome leather sheath protects your hatchet’s edge.
  • Hultafors axe heads feature a lifetime warranty.
