Gränsfors
Bruks Swedish Broad Axe Model 1900, Left-Angled, Double-Sided Sharpened.
The pattern of
the Broad Axe and the handle is based on old Swedish logging techniques
for squaring logs and structural timbers of all kinds. Has sufficient
space between the "blade’s beard" and the handle for the
user’s fingers. Beveled on two sides (double beveled) or on one side,
left or right. The eye (and the direction of the handle) may be straight
or sideways angled, right or left, to protect the knuckles. One side
beveled, left side, normally goes with an eye angled sideways to the
right. If you want deeper visible cuts when squaring logs, you may even
have a broad axe, double beveled, with the blade bent and the eye angled
sideways to the right or to the left.
The
broad axe has a 7" face and a 20" hickory handle and the head
weighs 3 lb. It comes with a grain-leather sheath.
