Gränsfors axes are forged by very professional smiths. The proof of this professionalism is that they are able to forge axes with such precision that no supplementary work, to hide mistakes in the forging, is needed.

At Gränsfors Bruks, the forging craft is allowed to take its time. The smiths do not work by the piece. They take care and do the right forging from the beginning. There is no need to stone or grind or smooth or paint the axes in order to hide or eliminate imperfections in the forging.

A smith at Gränsfors Bruks has nothing to hide and he is proud of his professional standards. When he is satisfied with his work and has accepted his axe, he marks the head with his initials beside the company's crown label: LP Lennart Pettersson KS Kjell-Äke Sjölund UN Ulrik Nilsson RA Rune Andersson MS Mikel Sundberg MM Mattias Mattsson LE Lars Enander DG Daniel Gräntz BA Bert-Ove Andersson JE Joakin Eriksson

  • Hey Cody, I found this online a few weeks ago and thought it was great. For those interested, they have the Axe book available on-line in downloadable PDF format on their US website. I can't post a direct URL on YouTube, but typing TheAxeBook.pdf in Google should bring it up as the first result.

  • I've sent for my axe book. My husband and I have been chopping wood for the last two days and I'm so sore and stoved up I can hardly move. We decided, unexpectedly to put a woodstove in the greenhouse and needed wood quick.

    Though I cut wood a lot when I was younger, I could use some help honing my skills to former times. Thanks..

  • The details provided in your videos go a long way - it is the little fine details that really helps a lot. You're a considerate guy Cody! Thanks for your time and efforts.

  • Thanks for the heads up Wranglerstar! I really dig your videos and that scenery leaves me thinking ... I need to move! haha. God bless!
