Gransfors Bruk Small Forest Axe (420) with Ceramic Grinding Sharpening Stone (4034) - Bundle (2 Items)

I read a lot of reviews and watched several videos to determine what is the best type of hatchet/axe to purchase. I also reviewed if it is worth spending so much money on a hatchet. Yes! There is a difference in quality. Also, I read that some have purchased Gransfors Bruk and thought they got a cheap imitation. I noticed in the Amazon description that Grandfors Bruk can be manufactured by another company. I looked for the seller that had the hatchet manufactured directly from Gransfors Bruk. Be sure to select a seller that has the hatchet directly from the Gransfors Bruk. I believe the other manufacture has a license to make Gransfors Bruk, similar to Henkel knives being manufactured in various places. The workmanship is precise and superb direct from the source. The head is solid with a perfect fit to the handle. Feels great in the hand. It can be used as either a hatchet or a small axe to use with both hands. Lightweight and easy to carry. My only complaint is the leather sheath. It has no substance to it. It will work temporarily but found a website that make more substantial leather sheaths for this hatchet.

I have 4 other Gransfor Bruks and you can always count on the quality being way above the price. Definitely worth it!

exactly as expected

I am not a bushcraft or a mountain man by any means but after carrying a hatchet whenever I go camping. I didn't realize this was really what I wanted. I did some research watched testament videos and decided to pull the trigger. It fits perfectly in the outer pocket of my 13L pack. Capable of feather sticking, shaving wood for kindling, splitting logs up to 1/32nd! and I'm sure smaller but I'm not going to try. This is a expensive purchase but definitely can be passed down to the next generation if maintained.

Highest quality from a reputable company. Great backpacking survival axe that fits the perfect sweet spot for alot of tasks from feathering to downing trees. It’s now one of my prized possessions that will last beyond a lifetime.

Nice axe

I wish they didn't cost so much

Use this most days. So nice. Perfect size for small trees, large honeysuckle in my woods and small enough to be versatile in between all the brush. Just perfect.
