American Felling Axe Straight

Gransfors Bruks first-class full size axe for felling trees and sectioning logs is based on a classic Colonial American pattern. The straight handle is 31": long and provides and easy "slide" for the handle through the hands, so is best when working with no bystanders. The head with 4-1/2" face weighs 3 lbs.

The Swedes are the world's greatest axe enthusiasts, and Gränsfors Bruks is one of their finest forges. Each axe is carefully forged by an experienced smith who shows his pride in his work by stamping his initials on the head next to the company logo and each smith is introduced in the booklet that accompanies every Gränsfors Bruks axe. After forging, each blade is ground to a 25° bevel and honed to a razor edge handle with care! Each axe is fitted with a tight-grained hickory handle and provided with a grain-leather sheath with snap fastener.

Should you notice your axe head seeming loose without apparent cause, soaking the entire head overnight in Boiled Linseed Oil, will in most cases allow the wood grain inside the eye fitting to hydrate and expand.  This should provide a long-lasting solution.
