HULTS BRUK | Arvika 5 Star Racing Axe
SELECT OPTIONS
The Hults Bruk Arvika 5 Star Racing Axe is a hand-forged Swedish axe built for timbersports, competition chopping, heavy-duty felling, and experienced axe racing.
Used as a racing axe in timbersports, with its origins in traditional forestry felling and chopping axes. Its high weight delivers tremendous power in every strike but requires experience and proper technique to be used effectively. It is the largest and heaviest axe currently produced by Hults Bruk. Arvika is not linked to a place or person, but to the Arvika Tool Factory, where the pattern was acquired before the factory closed in 1957.

Swedish Craftsmanship Since 1697
Hults Bruk has forged axes in Sweden for more than three centuries. Each head is open-die forged, hardened, tempered, hand-ground, and fitted to an American hickory handle. Natural wood grain and hand finishing create minor cosmetic variations, making every axe individual without affecting performance.
