Hults Bruk – Turpentine – Agdor 1960s
Found this Agdor head at a second hand shop on a recent trip to Sweden. One cheek has the circle HB and circle H stamps, with the inscription “AGDOR HULTS BRUKS A-B MADE IN SWEDEN.” The other cheek features a sort of wedge-shaped stamp, not sure what for.
Seems like a turpentine pattern with the lugs, and I think I can spot some remains of green paint (not visible on the photos).
From what I can find on this website it seems to be post-1900s, but I’m not sure what that means (could be anything up till the present day, theoretically).
Anyone who can help put an approximate production date on this? Thanks!

This stamp shows up in the 1960s catalog (you have to look at the illustrations for the axe heads): http://hultsbruk1697.se/vintage-axes-hatchets/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Hults-Yxor-1961.pdf , although I’m not exactly sure how long it continued to be used, maybe until the 1970s. Turpentine pattern.
