Gransfors Bruk 413 Hand Hatchet

Gransfors Bruk Hand Hatchet makes an excellent scouting and camping axe and despite its short handle, the axe can be used to fell small trees. It is also great for limbing and for splitting kindling and firewood. A distinguishing feature is its short handle relative to the size of its head. It is extremely practical to carry in your backpack on forest walks, or to keep in the car as it takes up very little space. The shape of the sheath, which covers the edge and the top part of the poll, also stops the axe head cutting into your backpack. This hand hatchet weighs 1.3 pounds and its length with handle is 9.5 inches. Sheath is made of vegetable-tanned leather.
