I got this axe as a present when I was 15. Now I have a large hole in my left leg.

I am 54 years old, live in Ohio, U.S.A., and I have this particular Axe. It's one of my favorites. But, recently, I have found a NEW favorite. It's an American made Axe. The name of the company is: "Council Tool", their in North Carolina. Their top end Axes are called "Velvicut".......second to none! Right now, their the Hottest Axe company on the planet. Period! -Stephen, Ohio U.S.A.

Beautiful axe :) I own the H009 model (900g head, 50 cm handle) and truly love it. It can be used with one or two hands, big enough to split firewood and fell some medium size trees, yet it is small enough to fit into a backpack. And most importantly, it is not as expensive as the classic line or the ones that Gransfors bruk makes and i am not afraid to actually use it. It is a working man tool :)

Thanks for this video. An axe is a greatly underestimated woodscraft tool. Axes (or hatchets) were always considered esential by early woodsmen. You showed just some of the versatility. I believe that knives and axes should be considered together when one is choosing bushcraft tools. Oldtimers here in Montana wouldn't go out without them.

Well done. That axe would be good for larger trees as well but like you say it shines with the smaller ones.

Your chopping technique is interesting haha although you're pretty buff so it may not matter to you But just a tip when u swing at a tree start with one hand at the bottom and one torwards the top and as u swing the axe slide the hand towards the top all the way down to meet the bottom one.

Say Heah Dutch, Cheers. A while ago, I bought a 17" Hultafors Bruks Agdor Hatchet, It's a older range and was replaced with a newer range, like yours, I bought it at a closeout at a great price. The newer Hultafors Bruks have the Swedish Style with the ears to reinforce strength. Mine is more of a European Style without ears, But I really like it too. I also bought a 26" Husqvarna All Purpose Forest Axe that's actually made by Hultafors Bruks, My Agdor came out spot on, The Bevel and the wood grain was every bit as good as my G. B. But not as sharp, But it didn't take much to have it as sharp. The Swedish Steel was struck multiple times and is an outstanding Hatchet. So I figured why not get the Husqvarna, So I did, But I had to return it, At first glance, I said what a beauty, But on closer inspection, I noticed alot of glue around the eye, That didn't bother me, But looking closer, I noticed the eye was defective, This is one tool I don't take for granted, It had a piece of metal attached in tge eye where they had to specially form the axe handle too, It was a good cover up, But I still felt not sure and for an Axe, I didn't trust it, I bought it on sale at Bailey's at a sale price. I had to return it so I contacted Robert and he was very nice about it and even gave me a voucher to send it back. I exchanged it with a Ochsenkopf Axe similar in size, It's just a little bit larger, But I got the 620 H-1257 that has the Rowland Plus which is a steel plate over the eye and screwed into the handle, It has the European Style head and is made in Germany, It also has a steel sleeve to protect the handle on over strikes. I'm very familiar with Iltis Oxhead which is who makes the Ochsenkopf Axe. Years ago I had a Iltis Oxhead hanged on a 19 "White Hickory Handle and made it a House Axe. I started Baldric Carrying it and it's a great camp Axe, especially when we process alot of firewood by Axe Tapping Technique. That being said, I also just ordered my 24" Council Wood Craft Pack Axe with the heavy duty sheath and sling and this Axe became my Fav. this time of the year and Winter Weather Bush Craft trips, It's Aces, I like long hikes and scouting out new area's. It's ideal for that. I also have a G. B. Small Forest Axe which I really like too, But as you know, Their more expensive. But that House Axe is the older Iltis and painted black instead of the new yellow their using now. It has to be atleast a 2 3/4 lbs. head with a 5" thin face face. But the weight just makes short work and goes through knots like a hot knife through butter, I keep it very sharp. But as far as an all purpose axe especially when processing alot of wood and just bush crating, the Council is Aces. In warmer weather, I like to on person carry something like my 2Hawks Double Bit Hatchet or my WarBeast which for its weight is an excellent chopper, I also have the three Estwings even the Double Bit Hatchet which I enjoy using and I can beat on those. Thanx for a great review and Cheers, M8.

I have a Huskvarna axe made by Hults Bruks that is the same or very similar. Love it. If you can't afford a Gransfors small forrest axe, get this axe! I have a Gransfors wildlife hatchet and the quality is very similar.

I believe this is the same axe as the husqvarna 26" multipurpose forest axe. The quality control may be less though and I dont' know that the husqvarna would be cheaper in Europe anyway, but I think it is here. Just got one. I'm just starting a video series to modify it and put it through the paces to make it do lots of different stuff. Seems like it has potential. I'm into the multipurpose axe concept. The husqvarna is longer than the gransfors, though that may not be true by the time I reseat the head down far enough.

I Have finished my knife kit now moving on to axes. Just starting to look around and research. If you were buying 1 pack axe which would you pick?

@DutchBushcraftKnives

7 жыл бұрын

a generic axe would dull much more easily and often have a very thick edge making it hard to do finer tasks like making a feather stick. fiskars is better than the generic and should keep a better edge. I don't have any experience with them though. I prefer a natural look on axes.

Nice axe! Hultafors make strong tools. I have a Wetterlings and Gränsfors Bruk but I'd get one of these if I needed one, no problems whatsoever.

Mikkie! Maartin! I wonder that, what is the difference between a hatchet and felling axe in terms of performance and usage?

It is easy for people to really discount the Axe today... but it is such a fantastic tool. Saws are so excellent with modern machining and materials. Really where they have gained the most is in affordability. By being affordable enough to replace the blade often, you are always at the peak of your cutting ability. In days past they were expensive and hard to sharpen. The blade is extremely disposable, and the saw itself is mostly disposable as well. Modern super steels are so much more capable than ever imaginable. Even older steels with modern heat treating processes have become stellar. Steels used for knives during the American frontier times would be flat dull by the time you batoned two logs. Comparing that to a 3V Bark river with a cryo heat treat is just an out of this world difference. It wouldn't even be in consideration as a primary tool. Axes are just such a good design that still holds it's own despite all the advances in manufacturing. Yes they are improving steels and heat treat quality, but the gains are minimal because the base design is just so freaking good. You can rehandle an axehead that your grandfather used as a kid, and if it was designed well, it will still hold up admirably. If you handed that same axe on to your grandchild, you could be confident in handing them a real, working tool, and not some ancient family relic. The axe is so effective, so affordable, and so easy to maintain. It's easy to see why it is such a classic.

I can't decide, I want the Hultafors Classic hunters axe because its not too small and not too big, but I like this felling axe too for overall bushcraft use. In my place I could get the Hunters axe for 60 but the Felling axe for just 40 euros! Which one would you take ?

If I could have one cutting tool it would be this size of an axe. Old woodsmen knew they could do everything with them, though some things a little slower, but I would take an axe any day over having to baton my night's worth of firewood.

The rest of the ingredients can be seen like carrot, bell pepper, egg plant, tomato and union. 15 minutes before the dish was done I added rice and sometimes i'll also add raisins as well. I think the stew was on the fire for about 1-2 hours. If you're going with beef you can choose to cook it even longer. In the end this was not a recipe.
