Gränsfors^® Side Axe and Broad Axe No. 1900

Two types of axes are traditionally used in joinery:
Universal broad axes have symmetrical, double-bevelled blades and straight handles. They are mainly used for making wood joints and notches. Side axes or broad axes have slightly tilted, single-bevelled blades and are used for straightening and smoothing logs and beams. Hybrid models also exist, which are suitable for both types of work.
