Does anyone know where I can get a Gransfors Bruks single bevel Hewing axe in Canada? Lee Valley only carries the double bevel variety. Outdoor Canada carries the sportsman axes but not the carpentry versions. I tried ordering from the UK but shipping an axe overseas is a logistical nightmare these days. Or does anyone know of a US distributer that will ship to the Great White North with minimal grief. Thanks

Ray, give highland woodworking a try. Most of their business is mail order, so they probably can ship it to you.

or contact Granny Canada directly and see if they'll ship you one (since none of the dealers carry what you need).

Thanks guys. I'll follow up on both leads.

you always get it shipped to the corporate center or the UPS store in ogdensburg and drive down to pick it up!

True enough Bruce, good ideas.
