Felling Axe HY 10 (900 g)
Versatile 900 g felling axe with a 650 mm / 26" curved hickory handle, ideal for small‑scale felling, limbing, and general bushcraft or campsite work.
The Hultafors Felling Axe HY 10 (900 g) is a compact, all‑round forest axe designed for small‑scale felling and general wood processing. With a 900 g head and 650 mm / 26" curved hickory handle, it delivers a strong, controlled swing that suits both experienced users and those who want more power than a hatchet without the bulk of a full‑size felling axe. Its moderate overall length (around 680 mm) keeps it packable in vehicles and for backcountry trips while still offering enough reach for efficient limbing and sectioning firewood.
The head is hand‑forged in Sweden from high‑quality axe steel using traditional methods, then tempered to create a clear zone where the edge can be sharpened repeatedly without compromising strength. Multiple hammer strikes during forging increase steel density and durability, helping the edge stay sharper longer in real‑world use. The head surface is blasted and clear‑lacquered to resist corrosion and provide a durable working finish.
The curved handle is made from tough hickory and treated with linseed oil for a secure, natural feel in the hand. Its length and geometry give confident control for precise cuts while still allowing powerful full‑body swings when needed. This makes the HY 10 (900 g) a practical choice as a “do‑most‑things” forest axe for cabins, homesteads, and general outdoor work.
