Anyone with opinions on Wetterling axes?

They're supposed to be hand forged in Sweeden. How do these compare to the Gransfor Bruks stuff.

Cliff Stamp did a very extensive test, which a search should reveal. The bottom line is that unless you want to do a lot of re-grinding and are really short on funds, the Gransfors is a lot easier way to go. I've also heard that the Wetterling sheaths fall apart.

DwK summed it up well, the GB products are not that more expensive, and the difference in quality that I saw was very significant. Ref :

Thanks for the help and all the tests.
