The Gränsfors Large Splitting Axe can be used for splitting all types of firewood. It is forged and ground to a concave, quite thin blade at the bit. The axe cuts quickly and easily into the wood and then effectively splits it as the broader section pushes apart the wood. The handle has a protective steel collar below the axe head and circular grooves towards the end for an extra firm grip. The handle is available in two forms, a shorter and a longer version. Splitting Axes should not be used for striking a wedge or as a wedge. Only the Splitting Maul is designed for this. The axe is delivered with a sheath.

When choosing an axe, the blade material is a critical factor that influences its performance, durability, and suitability for specific tasks.
Selecting the right handle material for your axe depends on a balance of factors including intended use, comfort, maintenance, and personal preference.

2. Shock-absorbing FiberComp® handle is lightweight yet stronger than steel to prevent overstrike damage.
3. Glass-Filled Nylon: Lightweight and resistant to moisture and decay, though they may not be as durable under heavy use.
4. Rubber Overmolded Handles: Feature a core material (like fiberglass or steel) covered with rubber for improved grip and vibration dampening.
