    WTB: looking for Gransfors Bruks mini

    Hey all-
    I'm looking for a GB mini hatchet. I know I can order one from eBay for 140 bucks but its shipped from Germany .

    Figured I would put out a feeler here first to see if there was one somebody a bit closer was willing to part with.

    Drop me a pm if you've got one you aren't using.

    Thanks!

    I can pick one up for 85 euro's (shop within walking distance) and send it to you. Make your own calculations; echange rates and shipping cots. I am willing to help you out, if it is interessting for you.

    I am surprised by the amount of money you people have to pay for Gransfors Brusk. The price at webshops in the Netherlands for a mini is € 78,80 which is just over $ 100.

    If you order from outside the EU, you do not have to pay VAT (BTW in Dutch). The price without tax is € 65,12 ($ 84), which leaves a lot to spend on shipping!

    Have a look at http://www.bijlen.nl/ (bijlen = axes)

    There may be also Swedish websides you could try.

    They sell the mini at Smoky Mountain Knife Works, but I think it is around $170 there, plus shipping if ordered from their website. I love that place and its right in my back yard!

    I know not really a big help, but check your local pawn shops. I picked up a GB Wildlife axe for $2.50 (no I didn't forget any zeros, nor did I put the decimal point in the wrong place) at a pawn shop in town. They obviously had no idea what they were selling.

    I have been looking for one of these at a good price for a couple years. They seem to be going up and up in value. I bought a GB #415 on ebay for $30, but it is bigger, weighing close to a pound. For some reason the #415 can be found new for under $100 too.
