Hults Bruk – Circle H + Agdor Stamp – 1950s
I can see an old HB in a circle next to an H in a circle. With the letters DOR underneath. The letters HUL under that. Then number 45 is stamped on the opposite side. Any idea of year or axe identification?

Hults Bruk – Brazil Broad Pattern – Pre 1950
Hi, I wonder if it is possible to identify this. The mark is worn but I can make out the logo, HULTS and below that Fa(b?). There are no visible marks on the reverse. Thanks in advance

Hults Bruk – African Felling Pattern – 1930s
I am wondering about the angle of the handle.
On the axehead I can make out Electra Bond Steel.
It will be interesting to know when this axe came to South Africa.
My wife’s forebears were all foresters, going back 3 centuries or so, and it is from her mother that I received the rusty old piece of metal, which turned out to be a masterpiece after my restoration effort. Once again thank you.

Hults Bruk Agdor Pre 1958
This axe was found in Canada for 10$ at a flea market. It looks like it is a pre-1958 make, but I am curious if the number stamping for the weight can give a more specific date of when it was made. The numbering font appears to be different from my other HB axes from the 1970s. I am also not sure what pattern this is.
