Additional information

The traditional forestry axe model 420 follows in the tradition of Scandinavian forestry tools designed for durability and precision. Hand-forged by Gransfors Bruks, it is made of high-carbon steel, forged for a long time and then hardened to 57 HRC, ensuring excellent edge retention and long-term reliability.

Its traditionally profiled blade, neither too thin nor too flared, offers a clean and controlled cut, particularly suited to felling small trees, limbing, and woodworking. The American-made hickory handle provides a good balance between reach, comfort, and control.

Each axe is stamped with the initials of the master blacksmith who crafted it and delivered perfectly sharpened with a leather cover, true to the brand's artisanal spirit.

Expertise

Gaignard Millon

Expertise forged through workshop experience: we compare, measure, and test each item on various types of wood. Selection guided by cut, ergonomics, and durability. A standard confirmed by professionals: École Boulle, the Louvre Museum, the Musée d'Orsay. As enthusiasts, we select only the best tools.

Workshop check & sharpening ready to use

Every tool passes through our hands before shipping: visual inspection, geometry, flatness, and deburring. If necessary, we sharpen it on a Tormek system for a consistent angle, and a clean, durable edge. The result: a tool that cuts cleanly right out of the box, with no time wasted at the workbench. Tested on wood, wiped down, protected, you receive a tool ready to work.

1% for the Children of the Woods

Gaignard-Millon donates 1% of the VAT-inclusive price of each order to associations that introduce children to woodworking and support reintegration through manual trades (e.g., L’Outil en Main, apprenticeship workshops). Each purchase becomes an act of transmission. A simple gesture to pass on expertise and nurture the next generation of artisans.
