"In Karesuando we make knives that are adapted to our nature with harsh, arctic climate, northern lights and midnight sun.We make genuine products that are shaped by centuries-old craft traditions and nature's raw materials. A craft beyond the ordinary.It is in our origin and our traditions that we derive our momentum and inspiration."

For those that live a life close to nature, most will recognise that a knife is the most important tool you can carry. Whatever the terrain or climate a really good knife becomes your constant companion and is with you throughout your endeavours.

So why choose an axe over a knife? Well, Karesuando's handmade hunting axe is designed around the many tasks that beset a hunter & meeting those challenges head-on. The ergonomics, weight & size offer such high levels of control that when combined with an amazingly sharp edge you'll wonder how you managed without one.

The axe is packaged in a sturdy presentation box lined with reindeer fur. Included is a cowhide leather holster. Please note, due to the natural materials used in construction each individual axe will possess subtle differences to the next. Also, the primary function of a hunters axe isn't as a tool for chopping wood.
