Perfect Size And Weight

I bought 5 hatchets for the men in my family. They are easy to handle and solidly built. They maintain a sharp edge. A good company to buy from and a great hatchet.

Well-made

I bought this as a sample of what Hults Bruk can do in order to compare to my Gransfor Bruk small forest axe. Obviously this one is smaller, but Hults Bruk axes seem to be more readily available in the States. Quality is comparable and prices between similar models seem to be lower on average than GB axes. Unfortunately, I've yet to use this hatchet, but so far I'd give it a strong recommend to anyone interested in a high quality axe. A few additional notes: fit and finish are great. Good fit between the head and handle; no serious or worrisome gaps. The handle is smooth and has a comfortable shape. Edge comes sharp and is fairly even on both sides. Exactly what I'd expect from something in this price range.

Sharp And Well Balanced

I bought the Hults Bruk Almike last month for a lightweight, light duty hatchet that would fit in my pack and this one fits all of these needs. Cuts great. It is super sharp, so watch yourself! I like the cover. No snaps!

A Mans Or Woman’s Hatchet

Super sharp out of the box and feels real nice in hand and in swing. Haven’t used it in the field proper yet, but did find a few things to chop and whittle in the back yard, preformed well. As you may already know Hults Bruk reputation at this point precedes itself, so feel confident about the investment. Came with some lame government warning printed on, I lightly scraped that thing off, I don’t need no stinking warning on my hatchet!
