Hultafors is proud to introduce the Aby forest axe as part of the new premium line. A beautiful hybrid brimming with versatility. The Aby has a straighter edge and grinding as well as a good finger notch below the head for increased precision. The long, thin ergonomic handle minimizes the weight, at the same time giving you great force when striking. This axe is perfect for shelter building, processing firewood, and wood carving as well as precision work such as kindling and tinder . In short, it is your perfect forest companion. This axe is named after Åby, the nearest village to Hults Bruk, where many of the workers lived in the middle of the 20th century.

"Great axe. The Aby is super versatile. Great service as always from Kent of Inglewood."
"I came in looking for a hatchet - walked out with this long-handled hatchet. First use was spitting some firewood for the backyard bonfire and it managed fine. Sharp and well-balanced. This the perfect axe for me."
"This has been a great axe for general tasks around our 5 acre wooded property"
"Je suis satisfait. Je l’es traité avec 3 couches d’huile de lin à près avoir passer une laine d’acier"
"Bought this for hiking and camping. It's a great, all around axe and pretty much does everything. Sharp and holds an edge. Light enough that can be strapped to the side of my pack for back country camping. Highly recommend along with the sharpener."
"Love the axe, balance is perfect and easy to use"
"Excellent axe. Sis is very excited to chop wood"
"Got this for my partner for Christmas. He loves it! Lightweight and versatile, he will now be taking it on all of his adventures. He’s been chopping wood everyday!"
"Bought for mostly camping and making kindling; it came sharp and hold an edge like no other axe I have owned. Highly recommended!"
