Like most Cold Steel products, it looks awesome, fits very comfortably in the hands, and the ergonomics are top-notch. For this price, though, it lacks better blade protection when not in use; there’s only a rubber cover for the blade, no sheath or case.
A hatchet designed in the style of the traditional Hudson Bay axe, once crafted for the historic Hudson Bay Company, which dates back to the 17th century. Featuring a flat cap and a spine that meets the straight handle at a right angle, this tool is characterized by a well-proportioned shaft length that allows for easy portability. With outstanding balance, it excels at both splitting and trimming wood for campfires, as well as for refined and detailed tasks.
The axe head is forged from 1055 carbon steel, and finished with a black protective coating to resist corrosion. Heat treatment grants the steel superior impact resistance and excellent edge retention.
A sturdy hickory wood shaft supports the head, offering exceptional durability. A clamp provides enhanced security, delivering double reinforcement to prevent the head from slipping off the shaft during use.
