Orvis Axe?

Yep, it's a good one. Basically the same as a Wetterlings, just different branding.

For that price, though, do not buy it. You can get a higher quality Gransfors Bruks for that kind of money. Or for half the price, you can get the same axe with Wetterlings markings on it.
 
This axe is made by Hults Bruk of Sweden. They have been making axes for a very long time. This one is from their traditional axe series. They also make the Agdor and Arvika 5 Star lines of axes. They were bought out by Hultafors a few years back, so now their axes have both the Hults Bruk stamp and Hultafors etching.

The reason why the price is so high is that they do not have a US distributor, which drives up the cost of anything you can find outside of continental Europe. They are very high quality axes.
