Do you have a Fjallraven store nearby? The two around me have good SA on Gransfors and how to wrangle a few. Any of the reputable woodworking suppliers, such as Highland Woodworking or Shelter Institute are also a good option.

I'm not associated with this store and have only visited once. But I have ordered from them for years and have had no problems. https://www.smkw.com/ Looks like the GB splitting axe is in stock: https://www.smkw.com/catalogsearch/r...rs+Bruks&q=axe
CSP Forestry usually have them in-stock.
I wish this thread hadn't come up. Y'all just made me spend $$ on a Gransfor Bruks Scandinavian Forest Ax. I like this overall size of this ax. It's small enough that I can keep it in my tool kit for the truck an still large enough to be a good multi-purpose tool. Will go perfectly with my short handled shovel. As much as I'm in the woods all year clearing trails around my stand and general prep and care of my hunting areas this will be perfect.
Some of my favorite tools when camping and backpacking...

Well I just got the GF splitting axe I ordered from CSP forestry and it’s beautiful. I’m sure my buddy is gonna love it, he still heats his home with a wood furnace. Now I need to find a reason to order myself a GF small forest axe.
