Husqvarna was founded as a Swedish arsenal in the 1600s to make weapons for the Swedish military.
It became a private company under a royal grant in the 1700s, but continued as a military manufacturer as a primary function until well into the 20th century.
It didn't start branching out into consumer goods until the mid to late 1860s.
