The Forester Axe was designed with outdoorsmen in mind. Small enough to carry into the woods with a handle long enough to reach and make full swing blows to whatever is at hand. The Forged bit is honed by hand to a razor sharp edge. The 18" American Hickory straight handle is easily handled and long enough to clear out of reach limbs and offer full force swing power. Truly everything you need for your hunting or bush craft adventure. Hatchet includes hand crafted leather sheath.
