Gransfors Bruk Scandinavian Forest Axe Review - Bushcraft Axe Field Test - Woodshed Wednesday 

Thank you for a well made review of the scandinavian forest axe! I have one scandinavian forest axe myself, made by Lennart Pettersson. I bought my axe for 21 years ago. From Tobias Thelin I have a splitting maul, and I must say it is impressive how good quality it is. Once a late autumn night I happened to forgot the scandinavian forest axe, it was a winter season under the snow. The year after I went looking for it, it was hidden under some fir branches. To my surprise it only had some powder rust on some small parts, besides that it was like new. I was so impressed that the axe handle hadn't start its process to become decomposed, actually, it was like I have forgotten it yesterday. Even the leather protection was intact. I agree with you, this type of axes are better than a Rolex wrist watch, at least some of them are. I live in Sweden, so I have bought quite many of Gränsfors bruks axes as well. 🇸🇪

What a perfect review, thank you so much. I know which axe I’m getting next now!

This is such wholesome content.

Now I learned how I can use my Gransfors everyday! Nice.

That was excellent (and hilarious, the shaving). Thanks for sharing!

ROTFLMAO. That axe shave. Was too funny. Thanks for the smile you afforded me! Great job.

"Don't try this at home..." That shaving sequence was good for a belly laugh. Probably some great screen shot opportunities there for the ultimate avatar (16:09). Great stuff. I'm really enjoying the Woodshed Wednesdays!

Okay....you win a prize for the shaving bit. Incredible.

I admire your discipline. Most videos I see have people trying to make their fortune on RU-vid swinging wildly, and directly at their legs. I'm humbled sir.

Looks to be a really great, quality axe. She'll take a good edge alright...shaving! Nice review and a fun video.

Wow!! You are the man Kevin. That was about as much fun as a RU-vid video can be. My favorite line was “now I know why a lot of those woodsmen were bearded.” lol What an amazing anniversary gift and kudos to your wife on getting you the best gift of all in my opinion. I’d like to ask your opinion on splitting axes. I have a small stove in my shop I use daily in the winter. I cut my firewood around 14-16 inches in length and normally the diameter is around 10-14 inches. In this situation, what would you recommend for splitting? Thanks so much for sharing my friend. Your videos are great and just keep getting better.

Good stuff, thank you! :)

I think I just found my new favorite person on RU-vid.

Great video with lots of interesting information!

Omgosh! That’s so sharp! 😬

Another excellent video.

Wow ... very good job. Best wishes from Vietnam

Great review

Nice review. Looks like a great tool and the shave was definitely an attention getter.

I have the Gransfors Bruk Scandinavian Forest Axe and Small Forest Axe, one day I'd like to the Gransfors Bruk American Felling Axe to complete my collection. I also have the Aqua Quest Safari 10x10 camo tarp, and you sir, have great taste in gear. If you don't mind me asking, what's your go to belt knife. At the moment I'm testing the Mora Carbon Garberg, but one day I'd like to get a custom bushcraft knife in the woodlore style. Congratulations on the anniversary and the gift. Take care man.

“Laid the stank to a fatwood stump.” That had me rolling lol.

To much fun!

This is a magnificent one! I like the shape of the handle. I wonder, how many axes you possess, my friend?

i use it all the time from driving in wedges to cutting firewood the best axe ever

good review

Very nice 👍

I should've watched the whole thing before commenting, your inane (yes, inane) ramblings while "shaving" gave me a belly laugh too. Brewing a tea afterwards, sounds good (really good) to me. You should try some black rifle coffee company chainsaw, it's really good too.

Great review. I like your shaving technique but I think I’ll keep my beard. 😂😂😂

I finally found you Kevin
