Gransfors Bruks Scandinavian Forest Axe #420 (small), #430 (large)

Small Model #420: Same size as the Hunter's Axe but a more traditional pattern and poll.

• The blade is thin.
• The handle is long enough to allow powerful chopping but not too long so it will fit into a rucksack, the back of a car or a boat.
• Practical for splitting small sticks for the fire or cutting small-diameter limbwood for starter fuel in a fireplace.
• It comes with a grain-leather sheath.
• Face 3-1/4"
• Head 1-1/2 lbs.
• Handle 19"

Large Model #430: A professional axe for those who want to limb a felled tree in a traditional way.

• Forged to a thin, curved bit and sharpened to make it suitable for cutting branches in fresh, resinous wood, spruce or pine.
• The long handle gives extra strength and power to the cut.
• It comes with a grain-leather sheath.
• Face 3-1/2"
• Head 2 lbs.
• Handle 25"

NOTE: As with all Gransfor Bruks tools you'll find the smiths initials on each axe he personally makes and approves.
