Advantages

The forged steel axe head delivers a durable cutting edge capable of repeated use without rapid dulling. The glass-filled nylon handle provides strength and impact resistance while keeping overall weight moderate. A textured grip surface improves hold and control during chopping and striking tasks. The handle contains an internal cavity accommodating a fixed blade knife, increasing versatility by combining two tools in one compact package.

• Utility work requiring a compact, robust striking tool

Key specifications

• Blade material: forged steel
• Handle material: glass-filled nylon (black)

How to use

Grip the tomahawk firmly by the handle with your dominant hand and maintain a stable stance. Use controlled swings for chopping wood or striking surfaces, letting the mass and forged steel edge do the work rather than excessive force. For breaching or prying, apply measured strikes and reposition as needed to avoid overstressing the handle. Access the stored fixed blade by opening the handle cavity; use the knife for cutting tasks that require greater precision.

Usage recommendations

Prior to use, inspect the axe head for tight fit and the handle for any cracks. Wear appropriate eye and hand protection when chopping or breaching. Keep the blade clean and dry; sharpen the cutting edge with suitable sharpening tools and store the accessory knife securely in its cavity when not in use. Avoid using the tomahawk on hardened metal or concrete to prevent premature edge damage.
