The Gerber Bushcraft Hatchet Coyote Brown is an axe designed for wilderness and survival use, combining durability, thoughtful details and versatility. An axe needs to handle multiple tasks and still be as lightweight as possible. The Bushcraft Hatchet answers two basic wilderness skills: making fire and building shelter.
The axe head is forged from a single piece of steel for durability in demanding use. The blade is shaped with a machined recess that gives the blade better penetration and allows for deeper strikes with less force. The tip of the blade is protected by an integrated over-tip guard, which protects the shank from unsuccessful blows. The axe's handle has a hammering surface for hammering tent pegs or woodworking in the camp.
The ergonomic design of the handle keeps the grip comfortable for longer periods of use, and the rubber coating provides a firm grip even in wet conditions. The perforated design lightens the axe without sacrificing durability.
- Sealed storage compartment on the handle
The true insight of the Bushcraft Hatchet lies in what you can't see on the outside. Inside the stem is a waterproof storage compartment that holds 1.5 metres of paracord and a miniature lighter or kindling. This means that the most important fire and shelter-building equipment is always carried in the tool itself, even if the rest of the equipment is left in the rucksack.
