The Stålberg is a traditional carpenter axe developed for precision woodworking, shaping and detailed work with wood. Its long, straight cutting edge, thin profile and straight handle provide the control and accuracy needed when the quality of each cut matters. The straight cutting edge is well suited to hewing and shaping flat surfaces, while the hand notch allows you to grip close to the axe head when greater precision is required. In this position, the hand can be placed almost directly above the centre of the cutting edge, providing excellent control for detailed woodworking and carving. The straight American hickory handle complements the geometry of the head and provides a natural, controlled working position. The result is an axe that can move from more powerful shaping cuts to careful, precise work simply by changing the grip. The head is hand-forged at Hults Bruk and hand-sharpened before being fitted to its American hickory handle. Precise, controlled and purpose-built for working with wood, the Stålberg is a craftsman's axe in the traditional sense.

Product Highlight

Hults Bruk axe heads are forged from customized high-quality steel, with an alloy specifically engineered for this purpose, providing exceptional strength and performance. The steel is produced completely CO₂-neutral and is fully recyclable. Each head is hand-forged using the open-die free forging method. The axe head is then hardened and tempered for long-lasting durability. With a hardness of approximately 54–56 HRC on the Rockwell scale, these axe heads offer superior sharpness and edge retention. The cutting edge is hand-ground and polished to ensure precision and reliability with every swing. As one of the final steps in the forging press, each axe head is proudly stamped with the traditional Hults Bruk mark - a symbol of quality and craftsmanship.
