Hi everyone! I was looking for a functional axe to use during my outdoor activities and I bumped into the new model Hultafors has released, the Dvardala... I was searching for a reliable axe to chop wood and work on details if needed; then I found the Hultan model and the differences are many... what do you think can be the best model to buy? Consider that I would like to put it on my belt holster and walk around with it.

Walnut handle on full size axe head

Buddy picked this up at a pawn shop and we can't identify the makers mark--any suggestions?

Strawberry guava handle. I totally messed up fitting the eye and had to use some epoxy and wedges but it feels pretty tight.

Picked these up off of marketplace today. First axe heads I’ve bought in a long time. I know the True Temper/Kelly Works, it am unsure about the others. I assume the red double bit was a US .gov contract. It says US 88 on one side and 3 1/2lb on the other. The one I really like though is the single bit. It has no markings but had some blue paint, similar color to a Collins homesteader I have. Does anyone recognize that head? Paid $50 for these, plus a Stanley USA maul head. I don’t think it was too bad either way.

Looks cool, but….
