Kasperi x Roselli – Axe
The Kasperi x Roselli Axe – a versatile tool for your adventures
When we first launched the Explorer Set back in 2020, we created with it a limited edition of Kasperi x Roselli's Axe combined with a bespoke sheath made by us. The Axe was designed for attaching to the side of the Fold Top -backpack. Now with its new ergonomic handle, this axe is an even more effective tool for splitting wood in the field, camping, or at your cottage weekend getaway.
The wide blade angle prevents the axe from getting stuck, and in addition to woodcutting, the sharp blade has a great grip for whittling as well. The Axe comes with a Kasperi custom-made Cognac-brown SOHRE Tanneries vegetable-tanned leather sheath to protect the edge. The axe handle is made from birch and is stained and coated with linseed oil to ensure a firm grip, even when wet.

Usage instructions
How to take good care of your Axe to make it last for life?
For corrosion protection, drying and oiling the blade frequently is best practice. By keeping your blade clean and oiled, you'll make sure the blade will stay sharp and strong for ages. Carbon steel stays sharp for a long time, yet small rocks on chopping surfaces can cause small dents to the blade. To avoid blade deformation make sure to clean the surfaces between the blade and the wood. If damage does occur can be refurbished easily by a knife smith or by sending the Axe to Roselli's included lifetime sharpening service.
This product includes Roselli's lifetime sharpening service. So in case your blade needs refurbishing, just ship the product, and Roselli will take care of it!

Duties & Import Fees
Customers are responsible for any customs duties, taxes, or import fees. Customers ordering from EU member states are exempt from duties or import fees.
The United States
The United States has a de minimis threshold of $800 USD. This means that orders valued under $800 typically do not incur import duties or taxes.
For orders above $800, U.S. Customs may apply duties based on the product type, i.e. Leather goods (bags, backpacks, accessories): 8% duty. In almost all cases this means that ordering everything all at once will still be more reasonable and convenient than paying for two shipments.

FedEx or UPS will handle customs clearance and may charge a small processing fee.
Worldwide
Many countries benefit from EU Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) or De minimis rules reducing or eliminating import duties:
- 0% Duties: UK, Norway, Switzerland, South Korea, Canada, Singapore
- Reduced Duties: Japan (3.8%), Mexico, Chile, and others
- De minimis: Australia has a high de-minimis that exempts import duty for most of our products.
Your local VAT or GST may apply depending on local regulations. FedEx or UPS handles customs clearance where applicable.
