The Gransfors Wildlife Hatchet Axe is the model most commonly used by beginners: it is the second-lightest of our axes, weighing in at approximately 750g, and is the smallest of the three axes shown in the video above. It is of excellent quality, hand-forged and made using traditional Swedish methods by Gransfors. Each axe head comes individually stamped with the smith’s initials, while the handle features an exclusive embossed Ray Mears logo.

With a length of only 36cm it is a very portable tool, making it an ideal axe to use when packing weight is an issue. This axe can only be used one-handed, and is effective for chopping firewood or light axe carving. This is a first-rate tool, so long as it isn't used to tackle jobs that require a heavier axe. It makes a great partner to the Laplander Cutting Saw for providing a fixed camp with plenty of sound firewood.

Details:

  • Weight: 750 g
  • Handle: Hickory handle
  • Comes with leather sheath
  • 20 year guarantee NOT AVAILABLE TO ANYONE UNDER THE AGE OF 18.

    Protect your axe head from rust and corrosion by applying a small amount of Camellia Oil to the blade. More information on Caring for your Axe and How to Sharpen an Axe can be found in our Bushcraft Tips and Advice section.

    Not a long time user review as I only received this morning. Less than 48 hours from order to the north of Scotland, thanks Woodlore. Just tried the hatchet out on some old pallets for kindling. Used a Stanley Fubar to break them up then the hatchet to split the wood. Fabulous bit of kit with lovely balance and incredibly sharp as arrived. Made the job a pleasure.
