The Gransfors Hunter's Axe is specially made for the hunter, and is great for chopping wood and meat. The axe has a rounded ‘flay poll' for use when skinning an animal. (An axe with an ordinary straight poll with sharper corners can easily damage the hide.) The grip of the handle has circular grooves which give a steady grip even if your hands are wet or sticky. The Gränsfors Hunter's Axe is a winner of the Excellent Swedish Design award.
