The Gransfors Bruk Hand Hatchet - a useful lightweight camp axe?

Hello friends, here's the video you've all been waiting for, 20 minutes of axe action. I've been using this small axe for a while now, mainly for carving but since I fell over and landed on my pack axe and cracked a rib, I've since just carried this small axe on my belt. I've used it for limbing the tops of felled Scots Pines and it's worked fine. I thought I'd give it a go and see how it would perform on basic camp duties such as tent pegs and firewood prep.

It's definitely a dangerous axe due to it's size and sharpness but used with care I reckon it's a useful lightweight axe for those 3 season bushcraft trips.

Cheers folks!
