Gransfors Bruk - Hand forged axes since 1902

[@federico02072]

I just received my small forest axe it is absolutely beautiful. I'm going to order a wildlife hatchet. You will never find a better quality axe. I'm proud to have this axe. Thank you Gränsfors Bruk, you have one happy customer.

[@markreedy3131]

I have used Grransfors for years. No complaints, superb axes

[@Tad-tr6vi]

Good to see such great quality products still being made. A rare thing these days

[@peteraugust5295]

Not really. Products usually are super high quality. The crux is that they are cheap. Thus people dont value them, dont take care of them and think they are of bad quality. If you would use a gransfors axe like you would use a 5 dollar hardware store axe, it would behave exactly the same, but you dont Becuase it did cost 150 dollars. If you on the other hand treat your 5 dollar axe like ti cost 150 dollars, it will magically become a high quality product as well.

[@gtrul3s387]

@@peteraugust5295 you’re 100 wrong hahaha nobody who knows axes will approuve. You can take a inexpensive axe and make it better for you taste but you just can’t compare gransfors to a 5$ axe. It’s like saying that a civic will do the same job as a mercedes. Can make the civic better. But it’ll never be a mercedes

[@peteraugust5295]

So what do you do with your axes? I found that most people who lecture about how much butter hultafors, gransfors and what ot are hardly use their axe for anything but oiling it and feelig like a lumberjack while oiling their hipster beards. On the other hand I know dozents if not hundreds of forestry workers who use their axes Day in Day out and would not think a second about switching to an overprized axe with someones initials in it. So: hahahhahahahahahaha you are wrong hahahhahaha

[@gtrul3s387]

@@peteraugust5295 these axes are made for camping/hicking/bushcrafting. It’s not an heavy duty lumberjack tool. Lumberjack these days use chainsaws for big trees. Do you need an heavy 5 pounder for your camping trip? Use the tool for what they’re meant for hahahaha. You still have no clue!!! Amazing

[@peteraugust5295]

​@@gtrul3s387 Sine my comment apparently got deleted by snowflake youtube I try it again: I dont care what you do with your axe or what you use it for. It is of zero relevance to me. You are most certainly exactly one of those guys I am talking about, who lectures about the quality of certain axes but uses his axe like once every leap year. Literally every Forestworker I know that is not driving a harvester brings an axe to the forest. And literally none of them brings a hultafors or a gransfors for the single reason of them not having any significant advantage over other axes. Also you might want to look into the product portfolio of basically ANY Axe producer in the world, because just like Hultafors and Gransfors they make much more than camping axes for beared hipsters like you seem to be one. So please dont stress my nerves any more and vanish in the wind like the fart that you are :)

Just purchased one of your small forest axes, outstanding craftsmanship please never stop doing what you do.

[@MrKaxid]

A video like this makes me want to buy their axes over their competitors that are half the price. The care and work that goes into these are outstanding. I wish more companies had their vision. Well done Gränsfors Bruk!

I own several, along with the splitting axe. Best production axes on the market today; worth the extra money. Thank you to everyone at Gransfors Bruk, for your dedication to quality. Best Wishes for continued success.

I'm just an Arborist, who's appreciates a really good hand made tools.. I still own and use that hatchet .. its 2024 now Joe form California ..

[@myracrodruons]

Gransfors produces the best axe ever made. Its head and handle match perfectly and as a result, it is a incredible tool.

[@404BOOMER]

Pride and quality in your product is to be commended. All products should be made that way. They used to be that way years ago. Made to last and not thrown away. Now too many companies are only concerned with profit. I commend you Gransfors Bruk.

[@thenight-frog2543]

The axe I own (a forester axe) is definitely amazing! Thanks for a fantastic product. It has lasted for about 25 years so far and will probably last for a hundred more. The handle attachment is extremely solid. (I usually loosen hammerheads from working with the hammers. The axhandle has never moved whatsoever.

[@CB-zx3jn]

Noticed that GB has recently stopped using the 3-prong retaining pin in their axe handles. Does anyone else feel that they should bring the retaining pin back? The company statement is that they are trying to "save unnecessary resources", due to environmental commitment, and that the retaining pin "is not really necessary" to help improve the handle/head fit longevity. Well, I still have a concern about that... If this design was good enough for them to use it for over 100 years, and helped GB build a reputation for "quality" (especially regarding how much service an axe would give before the handle would loosen-up), then why the heck would they suddenly change things? I just noticed that in this 2016 video, the retaining pin is clearly visible in the top of the axe handle on some of the axes, but now suddenly they want to save a couple pennies and stop using it? In fact, in some re-handling videos, it is noted that GB includes in the handle replacement kit THE VERY RETAINING PIN that they, for some reason, don't now want to include in the finished axes. Does anyone else feel that GB should go back to producing their axes the way they did before, which helped them build their reputation?

[@Impuritan1]

C B can't wait for ZombieFighter2001 chimes in on this. It seems he knows exactly what that company is up to.

[@kakan113]

Hey! They've actually tested their axes thoroughly and they noticed that the axe did just as fine without the pin.

[@paulwhat322]

Try to save costs and increase profits

[@zombiefighterof1987]

I mean 50 years ago axes were permabonded with a wood wedge underneath, i can't say for sure, but they probably only used wood wedges 100 years ago or a simpler step wedge since a barrel wedge or the fancy one they use wouldn't be as simple to make back then. And either way it's almost better to just use a wood wedge since you can always pound a steel one in when the handle goes loose

I have 3 GB axes and all are amazing and they are looked after like an antique heirloom but they are used as a tool effectively. However my 1st GB axe is the Small Hatchet. It was bought for me by my Daughter. Approx 4 years of use as my Bushcraft axe it chipped on the corner. My advice is to store your receipt like the Crown Jewels as no repair or warranty work will be done without it, as my Daughter has moved house and has lost the receipt. Yes they are good but they do and can fail, it has spoilt the look of such a neat small axe and I'm more careful when I use it as I don't want more chips developing.

They aren't "pandering" to the PC crowd, they're just taking pride in that they care about the environment, a lot of Swedish companies take pride in caring for the environment since unlike the US, the country isn't filled with as many "global warming doesn't exist" crazies.
