## Overview

The Gränsfors Bruk Large Splitting Axe Model 442 is a 5-pound, hand-forged splitting axe featuring a concave, thin alloy steel blade designed for fast, efficient wood splitting. It boasts a 70 cm hickory handle with a protective steel collar and ergonomic grooves for superior grip and durability. Crafted for professionals and enthusiasts alike, this heirloom-quality tool delivers explosive splitting power and long-lasting performance.

## Description

The Gransfors Large Splitting Axe can be used for splitting all types of firewood. It is forged and ground to a concave, quite thin blade at the bit. The axe cuts quickly and easily into the wood and then effectively splits it as the broader section pushes apart the wood. The handle has a protective steel collar below the axe head and circular grooves towards the end for an extra firm grip. The handle is available in two forms, a shorter and a longer version. Splitting Axes should not be used for striking a wedge or as a wedge. Only the Splitting Maul is designed for this.

Review: look no further! - You can not find an axe with better value for money! The quality is impeccable! Weight and handle is just right. Splits wood like hot knife through butter. Price is on the higher side, but oh it's worth every penny. It's a joy to go gather firewood now. Love it
Review: Well balanced and Explosive - Several years ago I had a high efficiency wood burning insert installed in my living room to offset the Minnesota winter (and heating bills). With frugality in mind, I split my own wood instead of purchasing a cord to a cord and a half per season. To do the job, I chose the Large Splitting Axe from Gransfors Bruks and have been delighted every time out. I have owned the tool for 3 seasons now and have spent nearly 9 weeks of comprising of after work and weekends restocking the 11 wood racks in my back yard. If you are looking for a tool that will stand up to the abuse, is well balanced and provides explosive splitting power, the Large Splitting Axe must be considered. I own 3 tools from Gransfors and the quality is exemplary; straight hickory shafts, precise forging and supreme sharpness. After each use, I do wipe them down with a bit of oil as I store them in my basement and they are a high carbon steel. This is a heirloom quality piece and will be appreciated by future generations.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A work of art
*by S***N on September 9, 2011*

I've been using various-what I know realize as-cheap axes for years, often believing some of them were really great. I apparently had no clue. This axe is the perfect size and weight (my first impression was it was too small, don't be fooled!) for continuous splitting with little fatigue. You'll need a splitting maul, of course, to initially split the round (anything over about a 10 inch diameter, I'd say). Once the round's been split in half this axe makes quick, easy and comfortable work of the rest. I love this axe so much, it lives in my room instead of with the other tools. Well worth the investment, and the Axe book that comes along with it is really cool, too. I can't wait to invest in a GB splitting maul and felling axe, next. Thank you Gransfors Bruks for making a quality tool, rare these days.
