Ekelund Hunting Axe 0.85

Ships within 3 to 5 business days.

The hunting axe features a head of intermediate weight, heavy enough for forestry work and refined enough for clean skinning. It is the compromise sought by anyone who only has room for a single cutting tool in their pack. The head is hand-forged at Hults Bruk, where the steel is struck between forty and sixty times: the material becomes denser, the edge holds longer, and the head withstands missed strikes. The forge has been operating on this site since 1697, and the steel comes from Sweden.

Highlights

• Hand-forged head: forty to sixty hammer strikes densify the steel where the edge works
• Hunting and forest versatility: enough mass to fell wood, enough finesse for precision work
• Swedish steel from Hults Bruk: a forge in operation on the same site since 1697
