A perfect blend of heritage, quality, and portability for serious campers and bushcrafters.

## Description

This is Hultafors / Hults Bruk smallest hatchet "Agelsjon", suitable for hiking in the mountains or in the woods. The hatchet is flexible and easy to use, and it fits perfectly for diverse tasks near the camp site, such as processing fire wood and shelter building. With its short handle and light weight, it is easy to pack in your back pack or attach to your belt.This hatchet has become a favourite among those who enjoy spending time around the camp fire.

Review: I feel the quality of this small axe just holding it. This will go in my bushcraft lightweight pack. It feels so well balanced and like pure quality. I can hardly wait to camp with this small wonder at hand. I will mostly use it for fire prep and such tasks. It will likely be used also to split deer and hog carcasses and such type butchering during meat prep. I’m most certain it will perform great for such jobs and last a long time doing so.
Review: It’s as much as a fine tool as well as a piece of art. Very sharp and holds an edge better than any other axe or hatchet I own. Only thing it needed was a little more linseed oil on the wood but otherwise it’s perfect and functional.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this hatchet good for carving?**
A: This hatchet comes razor sharp and the size makes it easy to handle.  You can choke up nicely on the axe head so it’s a great tool for carving.

**Q: What’s the handle width at largest point? Looking to size it for belt holster**
A: The butt is the widest point and its 50mm

**Q: Can anyone recommend a sharpening stone for this axe? One that's not fifty dollars but does the same job?**
A: Depending on your purposes, pretty much any stone may do or you may need something specialist.  When I got mine I spent a few hours working the bevels down with a file for wood carving, then a couple more with a fine grit Diamond stone I think I paid $10 for, then a couple more with a leather strop and polishing compound.  You may get by nicely with just a cheap Diamond stone if you’re less demanding off your blade.

**Q: why so much? I see it on another site for 82.50 .**
A: The price on these axes varies rather dramatically over time.  I’ve seen it at $160, I’ve seen it at $80.  Same with the Granfors Bruk.  Also I’ve read others say watch out for knock offs - they are not at all ashamed to put up a cheap copy and do everything they can to make you believe it’s legit.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by T***N on 18 January 2024*

I felt hesitant to buy a specialized axe over the internet bc I'm particular about my hand tools. However, the Hultafors Ågelsjön (aka. Hults Bruk Jonaker) does not disappoint. Upon opening the package, I was immediately relieved to observe the head is hung straight in-line with the grain of the hickory handle. See attached photo of the knob. Photos in the Amazon listing for this axe do not reveal/sell the beauty of wood grain in the throat or belly very well, but as you can see in the attached photo - they turned out beautiful. One feature you also cannot see in the listed photos is how the sheath has a belt loop made of a reassuringly thick slab of brass-riveted leather. See the third photo. My next step in prepping the axe is giving the handle and eye a seasoning of boiled linseed oil. It looks like it already has a few coats, bt the feel of the handle tells me it could absorb some more. It makes me happy to know that the Hultafors company really seems to be working to honor the Hults Bruk legacy of craftsmanship. Yeah, I threw down some serious money for it - but for what I paid, I feel really satisfied for what I received.
