A Swedish-made 4.5-pound axe that is hand-forged and has a longer handle, the Akka is a perfect tool for the outdoors. Its features include a straight knife-ground edge, a finger notch near the neck, and a long, curved 24 American hickory handle. These attributes make it the perfect tool for clearing forest trails and overnight wilderness trips.

4.5 lb axe

The Hults Bruk Akka is a big 4.5 lb axe that is inspired by racing axes. This axe is intentionally designed for customization by the end user. The axe works great for carving big North American timber, and it is made by Husqvarna, a Swedish tool company that contracts with Hults Bruk to manufacture wood-handled axes.

Hand-forged

The Swedish steel company, Hults Bruk, is the only company that produces both throwing and wood-chopping axes. While some people are hesitant to purchase a Hults Bruk akka because it is expensive, the quality of the tool is second to none. These axes have long, straight blades and are made with high-quality materials.

Longer handle

If you're looking for a good axe, you should consider the Hults Bruk Akka. This axe has a long, curved handle made of finished hickory that features moderate contouring. This axe is suitable for backpacking and outdoor recreation. Its relatively sharp edge and long beard make it ideal for controlled carving and splitting. This axe is also lightweight, making it ideal for small felling jobs.

Swedish made

Hults Bruk has been making axes since 1697. Initially, the company produced nails and iron bars for shipbuilding. Axes entered the mix relatively quickly and soon became a major part of the company's product line. Today, Hults Bruk axes still maintain a strong Scandinavian heritage. They're made in Sweden by skilled craftsmen who know the value of a finely crafted axe.
