Wetterlings Chopping Axes |

Well-dimensioned and finely balanced Felling Trees and Limbing Logs |
![]() |
Hand forged of Swedish carbon alloy steel using multi-ton presses to produce an exceptionally strong, durable edge. Ground, hardened and tempered by master blacksmiths to keep a Rockwell hardness of 56-58. Hand fitted with hardwood wedges and steel rings to handles of shock-resistant American heartwood hickory. Every Wetterlings axe has in this way been hand-made and eye-measured with the greatest care since 1880.
The Swedish Felling Axe is a large, powerful tool – the workhorse of the forest. Suitable for felling trees and bucking large logs. It features the traditional slim profile of a cutting tool designed for deep penetration and slicing through wood fibers. The axe weighs 4-1/5 lb. with a 32” curved hickory handle. 7-1/2” Axe head with a 3-3/4” cutting edge. With a magnetic leather edge sheath.
The Limbing Axe is the “Lumberjack’s Sweetheart”. It features a 25-1/2” curved hickory handle, and a 6-1/2” axe head with a 3-1/2” slightly curved cutting edge. It weighs 3-1/5 lb. Whether suspended aloft in a harness, or solidly on the ground, there is no better axe for “snedding” – the quick, efficient removal of branches from trees. Includes lanyard hole and leather blade guard.
