Gränsfors Forest Axes are made to be used in the forest for everything from felling large trees to limbing small logs. The distinguishing feature of Forest Axes is a long, rounded edge, with a flat elongated axe head.

Gränsfors Bruk’s axes are divided into four different categories, based on their specific areas of use. The four categories are: Forest Axes, Splitting Axes, Log-building and Carpentry Tools and Double Bit Axes. In addition to the axes, there is also a selection of other axe related products.

The Gränsfors Scandinavian Forest Axe is a more professional axe, ideal for felling larger trees and for limbing a felled tree. The long handle also gives more power to the cut. The axe is delivered with a sheath.

The Gränsfors Splitting Axes come in four sizes: the Splitting Hatchet, the Small Splitting Axe, the Large Splitting Axe and the Splitting Maul. There is also a Splitting Wedge for use with the Splitting Maul.

The Gränsfors American Felling Axe is a professional axe for those who want to work in the forest in the traditional way. The axe is ideal for felling very large trees, thanks to its long, broad edge of 11.5 cm. The axe is forged to a curved bit, making it suitable for cutting into fresh wood.

Our axes begin their journey in the small village of Gränsfors, in our very own forge. Here, we craft each axe with precision before sending them out into the world, ready to be used by you.

The Gränsfors Hunter’s Axe is specially made for the hunter, and is great for chopping wood and meat. The axe has a rounded ‘flay poll’ for use when skinning an animal. (An axe with an ordinary straight poll with sharper corners can easily damage the hide.)
