Gränsfors Bruk Small Forest Axe

Great product. Good service.

I recently purchased 3 Gränsfors Bruk Small Forest Axes on-line through the Canadian Outdoors Equipment Co. One for each of my 2 sons and one for myself. Two of them bore Mattias Blixt's stamp.

The axe is my "go to" tool that I use in my work as a surveyor when limbing / slashing sightlines on bush projects. Light, balanced and extremely well honed; I can easily cut limbs, small shrub stems and fell small diameter trees one-handed with this axe.

My on-line purchase experience was a good one. Emails confirmed my purchase and supplied tracking information. And delivery was on the date promised.

A hand-written personalized thank-you sentence on the receipt enclosed with delivery was a nice touch.

If your worried about ordering on line, and not personally hand selecting your axe.. don't be. I purchased the small forest axe on line. I added a couple selection preferences in the comment box, and boy did they deliver. Thanks C.O.E. for the beautiful axe.

Nicely finished and very sharp. I’m very happy with choosing the small forest axe, its handy and packable and makes short work of most tasks.

Very happy! Went to a store in town and the axe we wanted was out of stock for many months and went online to the Canadian outdoor equipment website and ordered and it shipped right away. I even had to call on the weekend to last min change shipping address and they were open and a customer service representative helped me with that change. The quality of the axe was very good as well. Hubby is very happy! Thank you

Awesome axe!!!

I did a lot of research before buying my small forest axe and I love it. It’s sharp and holds it edge. It arrived in perfect condition and on time!

outstanding product, customer service, packaging and shipping!!!!

The quality of the head and handle is highest. If you're considering this axe the only question is really model. This size is like a really big hatchet or a smallish axe. For my purpose I wanted wood processing for fire and basic camp construction in a form factor that is good for backpacking. It's perfect. Small for splitting wood...they have larger ones. They have a couple slightly lighter ones as well..choose your requirements and these axes are superb! 10/10

I am happy

This small axe/hatchet is perfect for my many travels with Scouts. Have tested it already a few days after it arrived on a weekend trip on split wood and it makes kindling very well.

It is so sharp I have made several fire starting feather sticks with it instead of using my knife. Will also bring it on an upcoming west coast trail back country hike/camping trip.

One recommendation is to make or buy a leather axe collar or use paracord in a quick release solomon bar wrap and when splitting - spin the lace side forwards for more handle protection.
