Gransfors Bruk Outdoor Axe | Lightweight Survival Axe Designed with Lars Fält

The Gransfors Bruk Outdoor Axe with Collar Guard was developed in collaboration with survival expert Lars Fält, founder of the Swedish Armed Forces Survival School and a renowned authority on wilderness skills. Hand-forged in the village of Gransfors, Sweden, each axe is shaped from recycled scrap carbon steel and stamped with the initials of the smith who made it. Lightweight yet capable, this axe was designed for versatility in the outdoors—from felling and limbing to preparing kindling or clearing a campsite. Built on decades of survival expertise and rooted in traditional Swedish craftsmanship, it reflects values of thoughtful design, ethical production, and deep respect for the natural world.

Multipurpose Outdoor Axe for Limbing, Felling, Splitting, and Bushcraft

Despite its compact size, this multipurpose outdoor axe delivers impressive capability, thanks to its long handle and elongated head. The hickory handle is naturally shock-absorbing, treated with hot linseed oil and beeswax for durability, and fitted with a steel collar guard for added protection during light splitting tasks. Each axe comes with a vegetable-tanned leather sheath and a booklet detailing Gransfors Bruk’s design philosophy, care instructions, and production process. Backed by a 20-year warranty, this is a tool designed to endure—ideal for those who value gear that’s both purposeful and lasting.
