Intended for lighter duties such as splitting logs for fireplace wood, the Hults Bruk Gran Splitting Axe fits right into your collection as that handy, nimble axe that works well in tight spaces. The solid Swedish steel head is constructed in such a way that there's a tempered zone designed to hold a very sharp edge even after many sharpenings, and the curved shaft is made of solid American hickory that's treated with linseed oil for long-lasting durability.
