Gränsfors AMERICAN FELLING AXE - a professional axe for those who want to work in the forest in the traditional way. The axe is ideal for felling very large trees, thanks to its long, broad edge of 4½”.
This is the 31" (79cm) CURVED HANDLE version (MPN: 434-1) - forged to a curved bit, making it suitable for cutting into fresh, resinous wood such as spruce or pine. The heavy head and long handle also give considerable power to the cut. The axe is almost twice as heavy as the Scandinavian Forest Axe (430).
Cutting Edge: 4½" (115mm), Head Weight: 3.3 lb (1.5 kg), Weight with Handle: 5.3 lb (2.4 kg) Length with Handle 31” (79cm)

Backed by a 20-year manufacturer’s warranty. PLEASE NOTE: In March 2017 Gransfors announced that they abandon the steel wedge on all their axes (with the exception of Splitting Axes for now). Please see the full announcement in one of the images to the left.
The Gränsfors American Felling Axe is a professional axe for those who want to work in the forest in the traditional way. Developed by Gränsfors in conjunction with axe collector Lawrence Lyford and boat builder Geoffrey Burke, this axe is ideal for felling very large trees, thanks to its long, broad edge of 11.5 cm. The axe is forged to a curved bit, making it suitable for cutting into fresh, resinous wood such as spruce or pine. The heavy head and long handle also give considerable power to the cut. It’s also great for hewing, especially for notching and chipping. There is one type of head, but 3 handles to choose from. This listing is for the 31" CURVED HANDLE version (MPN: 434-1). This axe is almost twice as heavy as the Scandinavian Forest Axe. Comes to you sharp, with a protective leather sheath and a copy of "The Axe Book". Gränsfors Bruk give a 20-year guarantee on the axe head.
