19 -1/2" Scandinavian Splitting Hatchet

Description

This Steel hatchets is terrific around the house or the campsite. The Scandinavian Splitting Hatchet’s longer handle provides momentum when chopping, but light enough for kindling, and smaller branches. The unusual shape of the face/cheeks helps prevent sticking. The head is  secured with specially shaped Beech wedges and further anchored with Steel ring wedges – this isn't going anywhere. High-visibility red color on the handle ends makes it easy to spot on the forest floor.

Made to our specifications in Germany by a well respected foundry, comes with a French made leather sheath. Highly recommended.

Dimensions:  Scandinavian Splitting Hatchet: 19 ½” L Overall, Handle: 17” L, Head: 3” x 7”

Small axe

"Finished surface is a little rough and bumpy, could have made it a little cleaner overall look. Still well made and very functional overall!"

Phillip H. (4/5)

Perfect gift

"When the husband says he needs a small hatchet to split wood, and a quick google search brings this up on Garrett Wade, the search is over. Fit his needs perfectly. Arrived promptly."

Barbara A. (5/5)

So so.

"Forever too ship. The quality doesn't reflect the price."

Terry S. (3/5)

Very impressed

"This was a gift for my son and he is very impressed. I’m not sure as of yet if he has used it."

Laurie N. (5/5)

Great for kindling

"Nice size and weight but needs a lot of filling to straighten edge. Ground concave in profile with lower corner being about an 1/8"" longer than the middle of blade. With new edge it works great even on oak and hickory"

Steven H. (4/5)

Excellent for its size.

"Not a maul, but very good for its size, bought it for my camper van for traveling. Tried it out at home upon receipt. Won’t split logs, but very good on dried hardwood slabs. (Sawmill leftovers)"

Rob B. (5/5)

Cool looking. . Sharpe cutting. . . smooth handling

"Nice for splitting wood to fit my smaller smokeless fire pit . Also. . the neighbors are jealous. Only wish I'd had this beauty when I was a Boy Scout and Adventure Hiker."

Looks impressive

"I haven't used it yet, but it looks impressive. The previous reviews are good, and it seems to be a good value for a Scandanavion hatchet."
