Adze - Curved, Long Handle, by Gransfors Bruk $350.95
391-0479

Traditionally the Curved Long handled Adze is referred to as a gutter adze. This Curved Long Handled Adze by Gransfors Bruk is hand forged in Sweden from top quality steel and then carefully hardened and tempered to Rockwell 57 for the best combination and hardness and toughness. The overall length of the head is 8 1/4" with a curved cutting edge measuring 3 1/4" across. The length of the blade also has a slightly curved shape from the eye to the cutting edge to match the natural arc resulting from its matching 25" long Hickory handle. The Curved Long Handled Adze by Gransfors Bruk comes expertly sharpened and ready for use. Total weight with handle 2 1/2 lb. Comes with a split grain leather sheath to protect the edge when not in use. Expertly forged in Sweden. In our opinion this is the finest adze you can buy.

The Adze

The adze is used to shape and trim timber.  It is capable of removing large amounts of wood quickly. The Gutter Adze was traditionally used for hollowing out the trough of wooden gutters. Fields of common use today would include timber framing, chairmaking and large wood sculpturing. 


Gransfors Bruk

The family owned Gransfors Bruk (Gransfors Forge) is located in a small town in the county of Halsingland in Sweden. The forge has been making premium quality axes and other forged tools since 1902. All tools are hand forged by professional smiths. The forging craft is allowed to take its time as the smiths do not work by the piece. They take care and do the right forging from the beginning. Their confidence in the end product is such that they choose not to stone, grind, smooth or paint the tools. When a smith is satisfied with his work, he marks the head with his initials beside the Company?s crown label.
