- In this quick video we take a look at an other awesome axe from Hultafors of Sweden. The axe is the 20" Classic hunting axe, which I find perfect for camp work as it is a good quality lightweight axe that is easily carried in a pack. Thanks for watching........

I thought I found some non English video at first then my ears focused and I began to understand. Bloody brilliant!
LOL, thanks for watching and taking the time to comment Zedhead187. I agree, our local accent can be hard to understand sometimes. It is English..... just not the type you hear on tv very often lol. Thanks for taking the time my friend, all the best, Mark :)
@@markbailey2981 enjoyed the video thanks for posting this.
I bet you aren't English. 😎
Lol...I thought the same thing...great review!!
Getting a good deal on this one today, this video sealed the deal💯
I’m not an English man but I immediately realized he was speaking English… I can’t understand the comments below…
By the way, it’s a cool axe, great review.
Greetings from Italy
Thank you Silvio.
Great video and thanks for the advices!!👍🏻
Awesome video Mark. I'm always pleased with the amount of quality entertainment and top-notch education you are able to pack into these short little vids... Thanks so much for sharing!
Hi JT, many thanks for watching and for the kind words :) Thank you :) The Classic axe is a great axe for the money. Sorry I haven't put a new video out for a couple of weeks. I went out last week to film one and pulled the buttons off the top of my camera. I think it must of gotten snagged on some brambles ;( So it is with Nikon at the moment seeing if they can repair it. Hopefully be back up and running soon :) Have a great week ahead JT, all the best, Mark :)
I have one and I believe for bushcraft and UK conditions it is all the axe you need. By god it can be shaving sharp too
Superbly balanced too
Hi Joe, I hope you are keeping well mate 👍. I agree, Hultafors make some quality axes. The steel that they use is spot on....... easy to sharpen and maintain. Many thanks for stopping by and taking the time to comment. All the best, Mark 😀 🪓🪓.
Took me about 10 seconds to pick up that it's English.....lol eventually got used to it.
Funny how foreigners can't grasp English.
@@eleveneleven572 I'm pretty sure he's talking about this man's thick accent
Me too! I was just about to close the video and search for another when I suddenly recognised a word or two as English. What accent is that - it's almost as hard to understand as someone from Glasgow?!
What language do you speak?😯
@@Sarmis. Canadian English. His accent is and don't quote me I believe "Scouse" English. Like I said after a few seconds I picked up on every word.
Love the classic line from Hultafors!
I have the smaller trekking axe and really enjoy it!
Great video Mark!
Hi Jay, Thanks for watching. Yeah, they are a great axe for the money. Have a great day, all the best, Mark.
Nice piece of kit Mark. Always very useful in the field to have a quality axe of this size. Perfect bushcrafters axe. I value mine highly, although it’s a wetterlings, but same sorta thing. Great vid as usual Mark
Hi Shane, I hope you are keeping well and the weather wasn't too bad down on the IOW . Yeah, your right it is just the right size for me to carry. For the money I am impressed by the build quality. I would of loved to have got a Wetterlings before they stopped producing axes. They are an awesome tool. Thanks for watching as always. Take care Shane, all the best, Mark. :)
Great video, love these axes, and a mask with a tie rather than popper press stud type thing is really practical. Thanks for the vid..
Hi Dot, many thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Have a great day, all the best, Mark :)
Great review, thanks Mark.
Hi Aaron, many thanks for watching and taking the time to comment 👍. Have a great week mate, all the best, Mark 👍😀🌲🌲.
Always great information Mark. I really enjoy your knowledge and videos.
Hi Mark, many thanks for watching and for the kind words..... it is very much appreciated thank you :) Have a great weekend, all the best, Mark :)
Fantastic video Mark. I've had the axe for 3 years now and it's a great tool. You've never seen it before because I find my hatchet more useful on my day trips to the woods and for my carving. I'm glad you like the axe. Hults Bruk certainly makes wonderful tools. Have a good Sunday Mark. - Josh
Thank you Josh. I hope you are keeping well my friend. Fancy having one and not let her grace the screen lol. Maybe you ought to do a video about it. It would be interesting to see you side of owning one for a while. Your right about them being great axes for the money, plus Hultafors have a huge range of axes, tools and knives that all seem good value. Thanks as always for watching. You have a great Sunday too. All the best, Mark.
Brilliant review . Every aspect of this axe was shown . I've bought one . Ta !
Many thanks for watching N Pet :) They are a great axe for the money. I was thinking of buying another one for work. Have a great week, all the best, Mark :)
@@markbailey2981 It was GBP75 delivered on Ebay Aus . Appeared to be a fair price for over here . Stay well in these bad times . Cheers , Neil .
Hello Mark I have the very same Axe, and i love it, just a little snippet of info for you, (hope you dont mind) you will notice the rear of the axe (poll) is rounded more than usual, this is to help in removing skins / hides without damaging it. When the animal is hung you use the weight of the axe to separate the skin from the meat, the roundness of the poll wont tear or cut through the skin. hence why this is called a hunters classic axe. :-) Had to chuckle when you just had to keep going and cut though the pine, got to be done LOL great vid and thanks, regards Matt.
Hi Matt, I hope you are keeping well mate. Thanks as always for watching and taking the time to comment. It is defiantly one of the best axes on the market for the money :) I was looking as a Gransfors hunting axe prior t buying this. But I have had Hultafors for a number of years and they have always served me well. Your right about the poll mate. I was reading up about the axe before I purchased it. It seems a little flatter than the Gransfors, so this suits my need more. Have a great weekend, all the best, Mark. :)
Morning Mark another great video my friend. Nice to see you out enjoying yourself 😁
Good morning Dave, I hope you are keeping well. Yeah it was nice to get out. Hopefully we will get a bit more sun now as we get into Spring. Thanks for watching as always mate. Have a great day, Mark. :)
Yeah what an axe as you say razor sharp. This is another on my wish list. You think your done and don’t need to buy anything else then you fine more gear, it’s Sod’s law haha.
That small sharpening tool was great at the end too.
Thanks Mark 👍
Hi Ant, many thanks for stopping by mate and going through the videos.... you must of been up early. I love Hultafors axes. I have a couple and have been really pleased with them. I think they have changed the name of this axe. But you can still get it. LOL, yeah I know what you mean mate, there is always something else that catches your eye. That's why I was gutted that they postponed the Bushcraft show this year. I enjoy looking at the new gear and coming home with a treat or two lol. Hopefully it will be on later in the year. Thanks again Ant.... have a great day mate, all the best, Mark. 😀🌲🪓.
Mark Bailey lol I was mate the dog got me up 😂. Yeah last year I saw loads of stuff at the Bushcraft show, glad I didn’t take the credit card haha!
Hi Mark! Good to see you. The true woodsman's tool, can't go wrong with a hand forged axe head. Good choice Mark ;) Take care, see ya.
Hi Edy, I hope you are well brother. Your right there, the hand forged head is nice and solid. I've been happy with it. It is a well made tool, that is good on the pocket. Thanks for watching as always. Take care mate, Mark. :)
I have one of these and it is a really good axe. Everyone raves about the Gransfors SFA, which I also have, but I think this has a bit more punch with the heavier 0.85kg to 0.7kg head. My handle is also a bit meatier than on the Gransfors, which is good, because my hands are large. Good video.
Hi Ian, many thanks for watching and taking the time to comment 👍. I agree, Hultafors make some great tools. I have a couple of their axes and knives that I use for work and have been very happy with them. I have looked at the Gransfors range of axes over the years, but for the money, I keep going for Hultafors. Have a great weekend mate, all the best, Mark 😀👍🌲🌲.
Great looking axe!! When it comes to axes in my opinion there are only 3 go to brands. Hultafors, Wetterlings (rip) and Gränsfors. Great video again :D
Hi Nathanael, I hope you are keeping well my friend. Yeah it is a shame that Wetterlings stopped manufacturing axes. Didn't Gransfors take them over or did they just close down? I like the Hultafors for the cost and build quality. I have one at work which I have been using for the past 4 seasons and I can't fault it. Thanks again Nathanael... have a great day, all the best, Mark. :)
Great video mark it's a fantastic axe .
Hi Shane, many thanks for watching and taking the time to comment :) Defiantly for the cost, one of the better axes around. I have a few Hultafors and find them a pleasure to work with. Have a great weekend mate, all the best, Mark :)
Just seen this, been working away and missed it. Cracking piece of kit and maybe next year may invest. Cheers Sel
Hi Sel, I hope you are well mate. Yeah they are a great axe for the money and they seem to be coming down in price all the time. Thanks for watching mate, all the best, Mark. :)
Hi mark awesome video again brilliant axe I picked one up a few years back as it’s so close to the g.b small Forrest axe at exactly half the price now .Glad you survived the weather I was dodging cars repairing street lights in it.Stay safe mate looking forward to the next one all the best stokey Andy
Hi Andy... I hope you are keeping well mate. Yeah I got through it. I have been off work for the back end of winter so thankfully I didn't have to drive over to Wales in it. You must of been freezing mate. My mate used to repair the street lights around Stoke. I used to see him on his cherry picker hanging the Christmas lights up every year in Newcastle town centre. Thanks for watching Andy.... all the best, Mark.
Always worth watching your reviews fella 🖒. I'm due an axe upgrade soon so enjoyed that ☺. Cheers Mark
Thanks Rick :) I hope you are keeping well mate and getting up on the moors. I bet its a bit soggy up there at the moment. All that snow melt and rain!! It was a bit boggy on the moor near work today. Yeah, they are a great axe if you are looking for a new one. Most reviews give them 4 out of 5 stars. A good price as well, which is always a bonus. Have a great evening mate. all the best, Mark. :)
nice review of the hunters axe.
Hi Cody, many thanks for watching and taking the time to comment :) Have a great day, all the best, Mark.
Thanks for that Mark. I have been considering the Hunter model or the Classic Trekking version with its 1 lb head that lots of people speak highly off. Both cost the same so I might have to get both
Your welcome Gary... Thank you for watching. I have heard good things about the classis trekking axe. Yeah I have seen them for around £55, so again another good price. If you buy both of them, it would still be cheaper than buying a Gransfors. Everyone has their own opinions of axe brands. But Hultafors are ideal for my needs and the cost suits my pocket. Have a great week Gary. All the best, Mark.
I noticed you changed hands after every chop at one point in the vid. Why is that? Just to reduce fatigue?
Hi Rich, I hope you have had a nice weekend :) I usually do it so I don't have to change my standing position. I find it easier when cutting a wedge out of the wood to do it that way. I forgot I did that video lol. Thanks as always :)
What is it about Gransfors/Hults Bruks axes and the users really enjoying them.
"Once I got started, I just wanted to go through" - like, would he have wanted to if it were any other brand? If he were using a Husqvarna, would he have just been like "that's enough of that" after a few swings?
Great vid mate , I just ordered one of these axes , it my first axe and I’m looking forward to getting .
Hi John, many thanks for watching :) I'm sure you will be very happy with it when it arrives. I was looking at the Hultafors axes yesterday at a show. Great axes for the money!!! Have a great day, all the best, Mark.
Thanks Mark, going to use it this weekend on my first solo camp trip out in the bush of western Australia
Have a good time John :) I suppose things have started to cool off a bit for you know. I'd love to spend a bit of time in the bush over there. All the best, Mark.
What are those trousers you got there, love the content and a great ace
Hi Patrick many thanks for watching 👍. The trousers I are a pair of dickies work pants. I tend to dye them a darker brown than what they come. I also wear the Carhartt logger trousers which are also hard wearing. Thanks again, all the best, Mark.
Looks like a very solid tool.
Hi Tarptent, many thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Yeah it is a well built axe. I'm very happy with it :)
Hiya mark can you recommend an axe that is slightly smaller and razor sharp and won't break the bank lol .cheers mate
Like the shape of that axe.
Yeah Hultafors make a nice axe for the money. They call the finish on the head brut de forge, which shows the forging marks and quenching. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. All the best, Mark. :)
Hi mate nice vid. Question. Do you know the kind of metal it is? Can it destroy concrete without problems? Can drive nails without problems?
Hi NijaRules, I hope you are keeping well. I am not sure of the steel specifics but it is a high carbon steel that is used. It is OK for driving wooden pegs, but nails would probably mess up the steel as they don't tend to heat treat the back of the head. No chance with concrete my friend, wood is as mush as it can handle :)
@@markbailey2981 They don't heat thread the back of the head?😪 Yeah if they do that maybe never broke so company will be thiefs xD..that's how it works on 2022! I'm good man thank you. Hope same there
Hey Mark🙂 Very nice axe friend👍🏻 I think they may have changed the name of this to multipurpose axe? I was looking for this on Amazon. I see those subscriber numbers taking off🎉 Keep these awesome videos coming. Ever think of making your own mask for your axes? You do an awesome job with leather👍🏻
Hi Joe, I hope you are keeping well :) I was looking on Amazon my self the other day and I couldn't find any of them either. I have left a link in the description box for the axe. It is a UK site, but it has the axe serial number on there so you can find it by number. Yeah I have made a couple of masks. I made one last week for my small hatchet. It came out not too bad, but they soon get knocked around. Thanks for watching as always Joe... have a great day. I'm just off to wet Wales for the day. Take care, all the best, Mark. :)
Is that an axe in your pack or are you just happy to see me.
I have the axe with the same head and a longer handle but it’s not from the classic range. I am planning on getting the hultafors classic trekking axe or the gransfors wildlife hatchet. Beautiful axe and great video thanks Mark.
Lol... I'm always happy to see you Howard :) Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. Yeah, both the Classic trekker and the Gransfors wildlife hatchet are both great tools. I was looking at the wildlife hatchet that Ray Mears sells. Its a beautiful axe. We are lucky to have such a wide selection to choose from. Have a great day Howard... all the best, Mark. :)
Afternoon mark, that really is a good axe for the money I love mine. Good informative video mate keep up the good work.are you going to make a leather collar for it mate?
Afternoon Chris, I hope you are keeping well mate. Yeah, I will get one made for it soon. I will probably do it before I dink the handle. I think I have a couple of pieces of scrap leather knocking around. Have a great day Chris, all the best, Mark. :)
Nice vid thank you
Your welcome Bushman School. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. All the best, Mark. :)
Hi mark video was great, full of info.How long before the bluebells flower?
Hi Margaret, thank you for watching. I usually see them in the May time. :)
i have the same axe but the markings are husqavarna
Hi Real Metis, many thanks for watching and taking the time to comment :) If I remember correctly I think Husqvarna have their axe heads made by other companies. I know Hultafors made them for a long time so a lot of the axes look very similar and have the same spec. Both excellent companies, that sell great gear for a reasonable price :) Thanks again, all the best, Mark :)
So is this the ekelund hunting axe?
Hi Truth 888, many thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. When I purchased the axe it was called the 'Classic Hunters Axe'. The Ekelund hunting axe looks very similar and is the same weight etc, but has a different product number. Maybe the Ekelund is a newer version as they don't seem to have the classic on their website anymore. I hope this helps, all the best, Mark :)
@@markbailey2981 I understand now thanks 😊
Hi my friend you really need to learn how to use an axe , take it from an old woodcutter . Everytime you hit the ground you blunt it at best ,smashing the shaft on wood will eventually brake the shaft . In the trade you'd use a bench tree . Aye that axe is way to short to build anything very fast . Longer shaft =half the work . Apart from the fails, informative video
Took you a long time to cut through that!
