Forged Tough. Finished by Hand. Built to Split.
There’s a reason traditional bushcraft axes are still made from forged carbon steel with wooden handles — because it works. The NedFoss 13" Camping Hatchet carries that legacy forward with a heat-treated forged blade that splits clean, a shock-absorbing beech wood handle that won’t crack under pressure, and a full-grain leather sheath that protects both the blade and your hands. This is the hatchet you reach for when the work needs to get done.
Key Features
- Forged Carbon Steel Blade — Heat Treated: Heat treatment increases blade density for a sharper, longer-lasting edge that splits logs, kindling, and branches cleanly and efficiently
- Resharpenable Polished Edge: The fully polished blade edge can be resharpened with a standard axe sharpening stone — this hatchet gets better with use, not worse
- Weighted Wedge Design: The blade geometry is optimized for chopping and splitting — lets the weight of the head do the work so you don’t have to
- Ergonomic Beech Wood Handle: High-quality beech wood with tight, uniform grain and smooth finish — absorbs shock on impact without cracking or splintering
- Full-Grain Leather Sheath: Hand-cut and hand-stitched with rivets and safety caps — protects the blade edge and your hands during transport and storage
- 13" Overall Length: The ideal size for one-handed camp use — powerful enough for firewood, compact enough for the trail
