Thanks for this Nightwalker, request sent :You_Rock_

I don't have a Gränsfors Bruks axe (yet) but have got a couple of Cegga's, British Red "Hunters" axes and a Hultafors classic "Hunters" axe.

Dont worry all I haven't run out yet!.. far from it. Also I didn't think they offered this book in PDF form? I've checked all their downloadable PDF's and I cant find one that is this book? I have already featured their Ebooks in a article I did not long ago, you can find them here.

By the way, which Gränsfors Bruks axe do you carry mostly? Im interested to see what sizes people use. I've only ever owned the small-forest axe, im really intrigued to try the wild-life hatchet for size.

I own the Mini Hatchet, Small Forest Axe and Scandinavian Forest Axe, I also have a large splitting axe (not pictured).

I once owned the Wildlife Hatchet but I preferred the SFA, the weight savings between the two were minimal and I felt that the SFA was a more useful tool. I would be interested in hearing from anyone who has either the British or French Trade Tomahawk from GB, these I'd think would be a more useful lightweight axe.

There are a few downloadable brochures on the gransfors site, here...

You can also download a very high resolution photograph of the folks who work at Gränsfors Bruks taken in their workshop from here...

Update: Dont worry there is still some avaliable!... I've had near to 50 requests so far so there's plenty more left. :) Also the email address is working fine as far as I know (I've tested it using two other accounts). Sorry I encoded the email-address in image (it stops spam), make sure your typing it correctly, the email address is:
My name Ashley then the @ symbol and the website-address: NaturalBushcraft.co.uk

I've had a couple of requests from scout leaders for two books, thats fine and I will grant those requests.

I've only ever used and owned the Small Forest Axe, but I would love to try the Wildlife Hachet.
