Weighing 7.9 lbs, it balances power and control, featuring a concave, thin blade for quick penetration and a grooved hickory handle with a steel collar for durability and grip. Made in Sweden and backed by a 20-year guarantee, it comes complete with a premium vegetable-tanned leather sheath and an English Axebook, making it the ultimate tool for professionals and enthusiasts who demand longevity and performance. ## Description The Gransfors Splitting Maul can be used for splitting very thick and knotty chunks of wood. 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. Its weight and sturdy poll with bevelled corners make the maul perfect for striking a wedge. Otherwise, the design is similar to the Larger Splitting Axe, but with a slightly longer poll. The handle has a protective steel collar below the axe head and circular grooves towards the end for an extra firm grip. The Splitting Maul is the heaviest axe produced by Gränsfors Bruk. Comes with English language Axebook. ## Features - Length with handle: 31.50 inch, Item-ID: 450 - Weight: 7 lbs - Sheath in vegetable tanned leather - The Gransfors Splitting Maul can be used for splitting very thick and knotty chunks of wood. - Comes with English language Axebook, Made in Sweden ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000WIOE7A | | Best Sellers Rank | #214,385 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #134 in Gardening Axes | | Blade Edge | Convex | | Blade Length | 63 Millimeters | | Blade Material | Alloy Steel | | Brand | Gränsfors Bruks | | Brand Name | Gränsfors Bruks | | Color | Brown and silver | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 259 Reviews | | Handle Material | Wood | | Head Type | Splitting Maul | | Included Components | Axe, sheath | | Item Dimensions L x W | 31.5"L x 5.5"W | | Item Weight | 7.9 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Drake Off Road Tools | | Manufacturer Part Number | Drake Off Road Tools | | Model Number | Drake Off Road Tools | | Product Dimensions | 31.5"L x 5.5"W | | Style Name | Splitting Maul | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Gränsfors Bruks - **Color:** Brown and silver - **Handle Material:** Wood - **Head Type:** Splitting Maul - **Product Dimensions:** 31.5"L x 5.5"W ## Images ![Gransfors Bruk Splitting Maul 31.50 Inch Wood Splitting Axe, 450 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51YKBKw6LpL.jpg) ![Gransfors Bruk Splitting Maul 31.50 Inch Wood Splitting Axe, 450 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/6103x5KXS2L.jpg) ![Gransfors Bruk Splitting Maul 31.50 Inch Wood Splitting Axe, 450 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51-VEcdGLNL.jpg) ![Gransfors Bruk Splitting Maul 31.50 Inch Wood Splitting Axe, 450 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61oEvAIZmKL.jpg) ![Gransfors Bruk Splitting Maul 31.50 Inch Wood Splitting Axe, 450 - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61aSuDJumlL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: In the picture it shows a metal shield on the neck of the handel - does it come with that?** A: Yes, all Gransfors splitting mauls and axes come with a metal shield on the neck of the handle. Thank you **Q: Can anyone compare this to the Fiskars X27 Splitting axe? To me it's the ULTIMATE axe of all times. Cuts through everything. Thanks.** A: If you ever use one you will never go back the only thing is they could put a longer collar guard just for over strikes. I have never used a fiskars but I know when you hold one of these in your hand you know it is made by hand by somebody that take's pride in their work. I have split about 25 cords and just sharped 3 times. It holds a great edge. I know it's a bit pricey but I think you get what you pay for here. **Q: Is there a link to a replacement handle for this axe?** A: I wish that Amazon STILL let us comment to each other as customers. That was such a wonderful social aspect of this site. Where customers could REALLY help one another! Anyways, moving on, I am SO curious why you need a handle replacement? B/c I've owned this tool & I've accidentally hit the neck of the handle, right below the maul head, on the edge of logs, on the edge of "wedges" I've used.. & it's held up really good b/c of that metal guard around the neck. So if you've read this far. Thanks. There is no link to a replacement handle that I know of. YOUR BEST BET, in this particular case, would to be search locally.. & see if you can find yourself a good handle. I know you could ALSO go to their website though & contact them, through email, explain your situation, and they could probably guide you in the right direction? Gransfors Bruk, has both a English website & Swedish website, so you'd have to hit the right one. Good luck with endeavors! **Q: how well does it work on hardwoods (oad, hickory, etc.)?** A: It worked great on cherry. I haven't tried it on the other woods yet. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by C***E on November 16, 2016* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by G***. on May 23, 2012* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by Z***Y on September 4, 2013* ## Frequently Bought Together - Gransfors Bruk Splitting Maul 31.50 Inch Wood Splitting Axe, 450 - Gränsfors Bruks Ceramic Grinding Puck - 1844 Helko Werk Germany Handforged German Twisted Steel Splitting Wedge - 4.5 lbs Log Splitter Wedge for Splitting Firewood - Firewood Splitter Wood Splitter Tool (Splitting Wedge) #13421 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/1833344-gransfors-bruk-splitting-maul-31-50-inch-wood-splitting-axe](https://www.desertcart.us/products/1833344-gransfors-bruk-splitting-maul-31-50-inch-wood-splitting-axe) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
