In order to survive and thrive in the wilderness it’s important to have the right axe for jobs from preparing Feather sticks, kindling and wood for smaller fires, shelter-building to whittling wood. Here is a selection of Granfors Axes that are large enough to do all of these jobs but small enough to fit into your rucksack.
If you aren't worried about your axe fitting in your backpack and are after a larger axe, then look at our general axework with trees page.
