Just ordered the all purpose ax on Amazon and saved 40 bucks for opening a credit card. I paid 19 bucks total and can't lose on this.......but was wondering what is the deal, who makes this axe. I cannot get a clear answer on who Husqvarna goes through/outsources to make this axe. Heard that in the last year or two that quality has gone down. If anyone has updated information, it would be appreciated!

That's what I heard/read, was just concerned things might have changed recently....It's tough to get any concrete info out there
 
So does Gransfors Bruks or Wetterlings make the this axe, or is it now Hultfors/Unicorns???
 
Yeah I asked a seller about the orange handled husq.hatchet ,where it was made particularly what the box said as to origin,his response was Sweden-usually though the country of origin is displayed if it's made in Sweden.( I also couldn't find origin anywhere on any of the listings including Husqvarna site)
On a somewhat related note I bought a Hultafors green handled mora style knife which I assumed was made in Sweden but when It came, the box said made in Taiwan,which isn't all bad considering some of the excellent products that come from the Spyderco/Taiwan collaborations recently.
 
So I guess Husqvarna outsources to Hultafors who outsources to Taiwan............got it:cool:
