Description

The larger of the two classic Hultafors trekking hatchets. A 900 g head on a 500 mm curved handle gives it noticeably more power than a pocket hatchet for splitting kindling, limbing and shaping, while it remains compact enough to carry to camp or keep in the truck. The head is blasted and clear-lacquered for protection against rust.

Like every Hultafors axe, the head is hand-forged from Swedish axe steel at Hults Bruk using methods in use since 1697. The steel is struck repeatedly to increase its density and durability, and the edge has a clearly tempered zone that can be sharpened again and again without weakening it. The handle is American hickory treated with linseed oil for a secure grip.
