Hults Bruk Jursla Felling Axe Curved American Hickory Handle H840721

When serious timber needs to come down, the Jursla Felling Axe is built for the job. Designed for powerful, controlled swings, this full-sized axe delivers the kind of deep-cutting performance required for felling trees, heavy chopping, and demanding outdoor work. It’s a tool made for those who appreciate traditional axe design paired with the strength and balance needed for real-world use.

The head weighs in at a formidable 3.3 pounds and follows the proven Montreal pattern, a shape long respected for its chopping efficiency and control. Hand-forged from high-quality Swedish steel at the historic Hults Bruk forge, the blade is shaped with a thin profile that bites aggressively into dense wood fibers. Each swing drives the edge deep into the cut, creating clean, efficient strikes that help you work through tough timber with confidence. Despite its weight and power, the axe maintains impressive balance, allowing for accurate placement and controlled chopping during extended work sessions.

Hults Bruk has been forging axes since 1697, and that legacy of craftsmanship is evident in every detail of the Jursla. The steel is carefully worked and hardened for long-lasting edge retention and durability, creating a tool that’s meant to serve for generations. Whether you’re felling trees, splitting large rounds, or testing your skill in competitive chopping, this axe is built to perform.

The 32" handle is crafted from premium American hickory, prized for its strength, resilience, and natural shock absorption. Its gentle curve provides a comfortable grip while offering the reach and leverage needed to generate powerful swings. The longer handle also improves control and efficiency, helping you deliver consistent, accurate cuts even during demanding work.
