Message Body: Weight: 1 lb. 0.3 oz. Length: 5 5/8 in. Bit width: 3 3/8 in.
No brand markings visible. Very aged and pitted finish. It looks very similar to the No. 45 claw. I bought this axe in the United States.

Carpenters style axe with a nail puller, HB called this one the Packyxa (or pack axe). you can find more info on page 10 of the 1958 catalog http://hultsbruk1697.se/vintage-axes-hatchets/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/HB-Catalogue-page-131012017.pdf Given the age you’ll probably need to measure the eye of the axe to find a replacement handle – more info here: http://hultsbruk1697.se/blog/2017/01/20/how-to-replace-a-hults-bruk-axe-handle/ Hope this helps, thanks for sharing!
