HULTS BRUK | Jursla Felling Axe
SELECT OPTIONS
The Hults Bruk Jursla Felling Axe is a hand-forged Swedish axe built for felling large trees, heavy chopping, limbing, and experienced two-handed forestry work.
A powerful axe that delivers very high force when felling large trees and for limbing. Although not specifically designed for splitting, it performs very well thanks to the heavy head and long handle. Requires two-handed use as well as experience and good technique. The long handle provides good reach and leverage in the swing. Jursla is said to come from “Djurstallet” or “Djurladan.” Today it is a nature-close area in Åby, Kvillinge parish, with Kvillinge church and the Jursla old-growth forest.

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.
