Spika is the perfect all-purpose axe for the forest life. It has the same type of head as the Hults Bruk Akka forester’s axe, but the handle is shorter – 17.5 inches long – making the axe more portable. The shorter handle also makes it versatile when you want to be able to work with the axe closer to the body.
The axe is suitable for precision work such as carving, whittling or building fire stands, shelters, and similar around a camp site. This is thanks to a well-proportioned hand notch that allows you to grip around the head and steer the axe with maximum control and a semi-straight edge with a flat and wide grind allowing the axe to rest firmly against what
 you are working on. The edge is still slightly curved so that the axe also can be used for light forestry work such as clearing a path or trail maintenance. The head is a bit thicker over the cheeks giving it good splitting capabilities so you can chop firewood. The axe also features a curved narrow handle with a pronounced end knob for a more secure grip.

17.5 in. Curved American hickory handle; 1.5 lb. Head
