Australia has always relied on quality tools. From the early settlers clearing land with axes, to modern farmers managing large properties, to competitive woodchoppers showcasing skill on the national stage, tools are more than just equipment—they’re part of Australia’s heritage.
Today, with a growing interest in sustainability, bushcraft, and outdoor living, Australians are looking for more than just basic hardware-store tools. They need axes, saws, and outdoor gear that can stand up to the country’s tough conditions. That’s where Axeman.ca comes in. While based in Canada, Axeman supplies premium outdoor tools worldwide, helping Australians get access to the same high-quality gear trusted by professionals, farmers, and outdoor enthusiasts everywhere.
Axes in Australia
The axe remains a cornerstone of Australian outdoor life.
-
On the farm: Essential for clearing trees, cutting posts, and splitting firewood.
-
In the bush: A compact hatchet or forest axe is a versatile companion for camping, hunting, and survival.
-
For firefighters: Axes play a critical role in wildfire response, from cutting firebreaks to clearing bush.
-
In competition: Australia’s woodchopping scene is world-famous, with events like the Royal Easter Show Woodchopping Championships showcasing top competitors using specialized axes like the Arvika Five Star Racing Axe.
At Axeman.ca, we stock premium brands such as Gränsfors Bruk axes and Hultafors axes, offering Australians durable, hand-forged axes built for serious work and competition.

Saws in Australia
Axes may be iconic, but saws are just as important in Australian forestry and bushcraft. A good saw cuts cleaner, faster, and with less energy than an axe for certain jobs.
-
Folding saws: Ideal for campers, hunters, and bushcrafters needing a lightweight cutting tool.
-
Bow saws and crosscut saws: Trusted by farmers and outdoor workers for cutting firewood and fallen timber.
-
Professional forestry saws: For heavy-duty use where reliability and sharpness are essential.
Axeman.ca carries high-quality Woxna saws—built tough, with premium Swedish steel blades—and other specialized cutting tools designed to thrive in demanding conditions.

Australian landowners, outdoorsmen, and emergency crews often need more than just an axe or saw. That’s why Axeman.ca offers a wide range of professional-grade outdoor tools to meet different needs:
-
Sharpening Systems: Tools like the Tormek T-8 sharpening system keep blades razor-sharp.
-
Felling wedges: The legendary K&H Red Head wedges, for Felling large trees.
-
Fire Tools: Equipment approved for wildfire response, such as the Bullseye Power Nozzle, trusted by professionals including the BC Wildfire Service.
-
Bushcraft Essentials: Compact tools like the Hultafors Ekelund Hunting Axe or Hultafors Grinding Stone are ideal for everyday outdoor use.
