The Gränsfors Mini Hatchet, sometimes called Small Hatchet, is the lightest of all the axes from Gränsfors Bruk, making it perfect for hiking, when every pound counts. The axe is excellent for limbing, chopping kindling and splitting firewood, despite its diminutive size. The Mini Hatchet was developed by Lennart Petterson (LP), axe smith, knife smith and keen angler, who was looking to create a very light hatchet that still retained that axe feel. The poll functions well as a ‘priest’ (used to hit fish over the head).
