HULTS BRUK | Stålberg Carpenter Axe
SELECT OPTIONS
The Hults Bruk Stålberg Carpenter Axe is a hand-forged Swedish axe built for woodworking, rough shaping, joinery, and detailed carving. Formerly known as the Tibro, this current model name preserves Hults Bruk’s heritage while making the product easy to identify for returning customers.
The Stålberg has a straight handle and long, narrow and straight edge. It will provide you with the precision any skilled craftsman needs. The finger notch in the axe head allows a grip where your hand is placed, almost straight above the center of the cutting edge, for increased precision. The axe is named after one of Hults Bruk’s most experienced blacksmiths from the first half of the 20th century, Ernst Stålberg.

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.
