The Hultafors Ågelsjön Mini Hatchet is the smallest axe in the Hultafors range but does not fall short in performance. It is part of the brand's premium range of hand-forged axes and is accompanied by a lifetime warranty (50 years) on the head's forging.
This compact axe is ideal for various tasks around the campsite, including preparing firewood and shelter building. It is also capable of detailed woodcraft such as spoon carving. Its design focuses on portability and ease of use, with a short handle and light weight that allow for easy packing into a backpack or attachment to a belt.
Favoured by those who appreciate the warmth of a campfire, this hatchet combines Swedish quality steel, hand-forged in the historic Hults Bruk forge dating back to 1697, with a strong tradition and focus on craftsmanship. The steel head is struck between 40-60 times to improve density and durability, making the axe reliable for any outdoor adventure.
Named after the lake Ågelsjön, which supplied water to the forge's waterwheel, this hatchet is a nod to the sustainable practices of its origins. With proper care, it promises to be a long-lasting tool in any outdoor toolkit.
