Lightweight and durable, it’s ideal for professionals and outdoor enthusiasts seeking heritage quality and modern performance.

## Description

Designed for precision and mobility, the Jonaker hatchet excels at woodworking, carving, and light splitting tasks while backpacking, camping, hunting, working on the trail or in the backcountry. With a curved 9.4-inch handle, this hatchet fills the niche between a larger carpenter’s axe and a carving knife. Weighing just 1.5-lb. the Jonaker is a capable hatchet that’s easily packable and can be worn on a belt. The cutting edge is approximately 2.875-inches in length. Note: all Hults Bruk axes are hand forged, so there may be slight variations from axe to axe.

Review: Absolutely beautiful little hatchet. Head has a good fit on handle, razor sharp edge and the quality of both the head and handle is beautiful. Would buy again
Review: For the price I was expecting it to have similar quality of my Gransfors Bruk but it defiantly does not, there are all kinds of cast marks on it still. The head is painted poorly with drips all over it, thought it was blackened but is not. Was not sharp on arrival and all together looks sub par for the cost, will be returning it and going with a better brand.

## Features

- The axe head is hand forged at the historic Hults Bruk, a forge that has been in operation since 1697.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Primary use is kindling not carving. is this good for that?**
A: Hi,
Thank you for writing regarding this terrific Hults Bruk Axe. You will love it.
It is NOT a carving axe and works great for kindling.
Thanks, ImagineGear

**Q: Can I use the handle to start a fired?**
A: The handle can be used for kindling if you really want, though that might void your warranty.

**Q: Can you use the back of the hatchet as a hammer?**
A: Yes you can, within reason! You can drive tent pegs or wooden wedges (not metal ones) for splitting . The pole is hardened but it is not a hammer.

**Q: This is my first ever axe purchase for teaching myself survival wood skills. Is this a good investment?**
A: In my opinion NO! Get a carpenters axe, better for woodsman and wood craft the best bargain is the Husqvarna one on Amazon! I would then consider the hatchet as second choice master your craft first, I own seven axes and chainsaw and hope to do some YouTube videos soon to show why!

*by Y***D on 7 August 2016*

What can I say? I'm a fanboy of Swedish Steel, particularly axes. The size and weight of the hatchet is perfect for carrying at all times as I hike for "random acts of trail maitanence". I just hook it inside the left side of my hip belt and I can remove it at ease to chop stray branches or chop steps into treefall for myself and others. And it cuts wood like butter. I bought a Gransfor Bruk Wildlife hatchet and wound up giving it to my son as I was unhappy with the "cheap" leather sheath. The Gransfor itself was fine but the sheath or hood is part of the picture and on the Hults the full grain leather hood is great. The steel is great, came with a good edge and sharpens quickly, do be aware that this is high carbon and will rust quickly, I take a small bottle of oil, a stone and a rag into the field to keep this hatchet in tip top shape. I have three Husquavara axes and hatchets and they are a wonderful value, however, they don't make a "pee wee". Again, excellent axe, most especially for the backcountry and when considering a survival knife or axe.. hey it's axe/hatchet all the way!!! God Bless and be well.
