This is an old hand forged Gransfors Bruks 2.5lb Axe, restored and hung on a curvy vintage hickory handle. The "GBA" stamp is crisp, but the "MADE IN SWEDEN" stamp is slightly distorted.  Axe is in great functional shape with a very sharp edge and it's a beauty too. Has tones of character in the form of forge marks and some old paint. Handle is strong and colored from use, it's free of varnish and coated in linseed oil. This is a very capable piece of old Swedish steel and is ready to get back to work. Please review the pictures as they are part of the description
