All About Hultafors Ågelsjön Mini Hatchet
Posted by Leigh Martelli on
Our pick of the month is the Hultafors Ågelsjön Mini Hatchet. But a quick digression into the difference between an axe and a hatchet for the laypeople like me (Leigh).
An axe: Long handled and two handed, intended, for chopping down trees, forming things out of them, and splitting firewood.
A hatchet: A one handed version of an axe, suitable for small trees and trimming off branches.
And, as a nice-to-know, a tomahawk is similar to a hatchet but optimized as a weapon.
So, with its headweight of 500g, total weight 775g and total lenth 235mm it is ideal for weight-conscious bushcrafters, hikers, and hunters.
It is a Hultafors premium axe which means it comes with a lifetime warranty - you just need to register it: https://www.hultafors.com/outdoor.
