Hults Bruk Sarek Splitting Axe

The Sarek Splitting Axe is named after the Sarek National Park which is located in Jokkmokk Municipality, Lapland in northern Sweden. Established in 1909, the park is one of the oldest national parks in Europe. The design’s secret is a hundred-year-old Swedish splitting pattern with small cheeks and a straight blade that cuts deeply into the wood. A metal spine runs along the cheeks of the axe that reduces friction while providing wedging action to break wood open. 30" American Hickory handle with 3.5 lb. carbon steel head. Made in Sweden. Includes leather cover. Hults Bruk Premium axes are meticulously hand finished to increase durability and illuminate the beauty of the natural materials. Hults Bruk Premium Series axes are mounted on an American hickory handle and come with a full sized leather edge protector that secures to the axe with an adjustable leather lace. The Hults Bruk works was established in 1697. The underlying culture and character of Swedish iron working has endured into the current day. They now produce axes for backpacking, hunting and professional forestry. Replacement handles and sheaths are available for all models.
