Akka Forester's Axe
Hults Bruk
Akka Forester's Axe
$209.00
Description

  If you want an axe which can handle clearing a campsite and other camp chores but don't want to be constrained by the small size of a hatchet, the Akka is the best for you.

  The Akka features a curved 24 inch American hickory handle paired with a 1.5 lb. axe head for exceptional leverage and power in a lightweight package. The straight flat-ground edge and finger notch near the neck make carving tasks a joy. With a total weight of just 2.2-lb., the Akka is ideal for overnight wilderness trips and fantastic for clearing forest trails. The cutting edge is approximately 3.125-inches in length. Note: all Hults Bruk axes are hand forged, so there may be slight variations from axe to axe.

  Hults Bruk Standard Axes

  Axes in this series are anything but standard, providing the same quality, hand-forged Swedish steel and American hickory handles, but with a more rustic, unrefined finish. These axes are superbly designed and perform incredibly, yet represent a meaningful value to anyone who desires the quality of a Swedish steel axe at a competitive price. Each Standard Series axe comes with a leather mask that secures to the axe blade with an adjustable leather lace and storage box.

70 Miles a Day? 800-Mile Arizona Trail FKT Was ‘An Absolute Blast’
  When Nick Fowler started his record-setting fastest known time (FKT) run of the Arizona Trail, its safe to say that his condition was far from perfect. Fowler and his wife welcomed their first child, Canyon, at the end of September. So, he was sleep-deprived and way behind on training.   He first embarked on the trail on Oct. 24, ran over...
Swedish Luxury SUV Gets Quality Updates: 2025.5 Volvo XC90 Review
  While just a mid-cycle update, the 2025.5 Volvo XC90 gets some quality updates. But more importantly, it keeps so much of what makes it a Volvo. As a Volvo spokesperson told me, think of the latest XC90 as an “old friend who keeps getting better.”   Volvos flagship debuted all the way back in 2002. The second generation, which the 2025.5...
An Ode to the Worst Adventure Car—and All the Places It Took Me
  I think of my old car sometimes when I drive by the Walmart Supercenter. The parking lot there was essentially the launch point of my first real long-distance road trip as an adult, spanning ten days and eight states in the late spring of 2004. We drove my 1996 Pontiac Grand Am GT, a car that my friend Nick announced...

G3 Returns: Canadian Sports Company Revives Shuttered Ski Brand
  Following a court-ordered restructure in August 2024, the Canadian backcountry ski brand Genuine Gear Guide (G3) faced a tumultuous future. On Aug. 9, the Supreme Court of British Columbia ordered a Canadian accounting firm, Deloitte, to take over G3s assets and make a plan to liquidate them. However, a recently announced acquisition might have saved the legacy ski brand.   Canadawide Sports,...
10 More Years of ‘Acres for America’: Walmart Pledges $34.5 Million to Habitat Conservation
  Since 2005, Walmart has partnered with the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF) to fund a program called Acres for America. At its outset, Walmart promised the program would conserve a single acre of wildlife habitat for every acre of land it developed. It has far exceeded that goal in the last 2 decades. Over the next decade, Walmart has...
The Secret to a Perfectly Juicy Thanksgiving Turkey? Cheap Champagne.
  For the last decade, I’ve been brining my Thanksgiving turkeys in champagne. The technique has produced delicious, consistent results from campsites in Big Sur, California, and Baja, Mexico—and in everything from frying oil to pellet grills to standard home ovens. To prove champagnes efficacy in producing a juicy, tender bird, I tested a champagne brine against a typical water-based one....
This Game-Changing Device Could Upend Training as We Know It
  Back in 2021, cycling’s international governing body, the UCI, issued a new set of rules banning the use of devices measuring “any metabolic values such as but not limited to glucose or lactate” in competition. The rules were aimed at the emerging use of continuous glucose monitors in the peloton, but the mention of lactate sparked widespread curiosity. Did the...

Behind her, Marit Bjørgen, a cross-country skier from Norway, has 114, and then Conny Kissling, a freestyle skier also from Switzerland, has 106.   Following her...
The 9 Wildest Golf Courses in America
  Golf gets a bad rap. The sport has a reputation for being too expensive and too resource-intensive, which are true in some cases. There are private clubs so expensive you need to be a billionaire to join, and courses where the landscape was bulldozed to make way for overwatered and overfertilized fairways.   But not every golf course is that way....
