Hults Bruk Agdor 28 Yankee Felling Axe (28 Inch American Hickory Wood Handle) Leather Sheath H840142

Mid-sized felling axes like the Agdor 28 Yankee are sought after for their portability and versatility. A 2.75-pound hand-forged Yankee pattern axe head is paired with a curved 28" American hickory handle that provides leverage and power for cutting down trees. The Agdor 28 is ready for overnight wilderness trips, car camping, and clearing deadfall along the trail. Painted Agdor blue and expertly hand forged from premium Swedish steel, so it’s razor-sharp and ready to use out of the box. Accompanied by a premium leather sheath, handcrafted in Waynesville, N.C. using traditional methods. This axe is an excellent value for money.

The axe head is hand-forged and made from Swedish axe steel in a foundry that has been in operation since 1697. As part of the production process, the steel is struck multiple times thereby increasing its density and resulting in more durability of the axe. The head is constructed in such a way that there is a tempered zone designed to hold a very sharp edge even after many sharpenings. A traditional leather protective sheath that is embellished with some unique Swedish decorative elements is included.

Features:

• The axe is hand-forged and made from Swedish axe steel using traditional methods in use since 1697.
• The steel is stuck several times, increasing its density and thereby the durability of the axe.
• The Axe has a clear tempered zone within which the axe can be sharpened whilst not detracting from the strength of the edge.
• The shaft is made from hickory and treated with linseed oil.
