Axe Protector SSHB-1,5S

The measure of all things - for some an aspiration, for Karl-Hilmer Johansson Kollén it was once a reality, in both senses of the word. In 1883, the aspiring engineer succeeded in making the metric measuring system acceptable in Sweden with the invention of the folding ruler, better known today as the folding rule. A large market was quickly recognized that wanted to be served. Factories were established, but they soon reached the limits of their capacity until they finally moved to the Swedish village of Hultafors in 1907 in order to make optimum use of the infrastructure and water power. What began as a measuring tool evolved into a comprehensive product portfolio for engineers, architects and craftsmen. Today, the product range includes axes, knives, hammers, chisels, saws, lever tools and measuring instruments of all kinds - of course as state of the art; as the measure of all things!
