Wetterlings Small Hunting Axe (1.5 lbs) with 16" Handle

Wetterlings has been hand forging axes in Sweden since 1882, and their tools are of the highest quality available. The small hunting axe is powerful and compact. It has a slightly over-sized axe head and short handle, which makes it very handy and dexterous. Bring this on your hunting trip to be well prepared for surviving in the wild. Use the polished poll to skin your kill. To slowly hand forge an axe takes true craftsmanship and decades to learn the craft to perfection. The process starts with first-rate Swedish carbon steel being slowly forged by skilled Wetterlings blacksmiths. Wetterlings forging hammers have been used every day since 1917 and are still the preferred method to reach the best result. No afterwork is needed to correct mistakes or adjust the shape, and they proudly leave small hammer marks that prove these quality tools are hand forged. Wetterlings axes are free from paint and grinding, carefully hardened, sharpened by hand and polished until they shine. They turn their handles from American Hickory in their own wood workshop, too.
