The 1500g Hultafors Agdoor Splitting axe is the mid-size Splitting Axe in the Agdor range. The head is Hand Forged from special Swedish carbon steel using time tested methods the Hults Bruk forge has been using since 1697. The Splitting Axe features a 750mm curved Swedish made American Hickory handle providing a perfect combination of beautiful balance & strength. This Splitting Axe is perfect for splitting small-medium logs. It’s lighter weight compared to a heavier Splitting Maul Makes it suitable for smaller users. Splitting axes are specifically designed to split wood versus cut across the grain which ensure they do not jam in the grain as Axes can.

• The Splitting Axe features a bead blasted finish with a clear lacquer for added protection.
• The steel is stuck around 70 times under a power hammer, this refines the grain structure of the steel increasing the durability and edge retention of the Hatchet.
• The cutting edge is hardened and tempered enabling it to hold a very sharp edge even after many sharpening’s.
• The American Hickory handle is treated in a 200deg Celsius bath of linseed oil to improve flexibility & provide protection from the elements.
