    It looks like it would be a good backpacking hatchet. I have been using the Bear Grylls camp hatchet ( the only Bear Grylls product that I can recommend ), for 10 years. I wish my hatchet had the attached pawl, but the size and weight make it convenient to carry. I can only imagine that this hatchet is even better. If anyone is wondering how I process larger pieces of wood, I use an Estwing 26 inch axe. This looks like a good tool for light chopping.

    I got an Oracle A1 mini hatchet at the Obuy clearance sale. I haven’t gotten to test it yet but it looks pretty good.

    I wonder how that would compare to the Gerber Gear Pack Hatchet.

    I’m not sure what to think about that stake puller. It looks like it might snag on things.

    Bought wet myself! I was just thinking "Sumpthin' sharp and no fire? and the text pops up that the footage was lost. Too funny!

    No offense meant, but I will stick to my $15 hatchet from Harborfreight that has been whacking stuff for 15 years.
    I also love my Riggers Hatchet I got at WALMART for like $30ish....great for building deer stands.

    The handle looks too short for efficient striking.

    You being out of breath after chopping with this gimmicky tool says it all. A hatchet is supposed to make your work easier, and this short handled hatchet makes you work harder. I can think of a lot more reliable hatchets that I could spend $30 on. A buddy got this in the Battlebox and canceled his subscription afterwards. The days of throwing your money away on "Grab Bag" subscriptions is over.

    @Brian, I’m really shocked that you like this thing. As a boyscout troop leader I’m sure you’ve used your share of hatchets, yet you are approving of a HOLLOW GRIND on an impact tool that’s main purpose is chopping and splitting. Secondly the only reason you HAD to baton the hatchet through the log while splitting is that the handle is so small and the weight so evenly distributed that you couldn’t possibly develop enough momentum in a swing to split any bone dry piece of wood. I read your argument that this thing is extremely packable & I call foul on your statement. Unless you’re carrying the tiny hatchet in your pocket; “packing something with 5extra inches of handle is not an inconvenience, especially if it’s a hollow handle like the Fiskars hatchet. I know at some point you’ve reviewed something like a 14” Fiskars hatchet why not do a side by side comparison of the two and prove myself and all the naysayers wrong?

    • @SurvivalOnPurpose
      @SurvivalOnPurpose  8 месяцев назад

      Hmmm. Maybe watch again. I am not “approving” anything. I’m pretty sure I mentioned that a hollow grind is not the best choice for a chopper and that it seems to have a tendency to get stuck in the wood. And I think batonning any hatchet is often the safest way to split smallish wood. Bottom line, I try to be as fair and unbiased as possible when I test anything and I do my best to demonstrate things on camera so the viewer can make their own decision as to whether something is worthwhile. And, certainly, there are better options and maybe smaller, lighter options. But I was testing this one. Thanks for the feedback

    sheath is wimpy & don't like the hook on the butt of the handle
    I'll stick with my Estwing Sportsman Axe

    Yes, but can it slice salami and cheese efficiently? ……..sorry, I’m hungry

    Looks no different than the Gerber Pack axe. Just more expensive. $50.00 for that hatchet, and $29.95 for the Gerber. The Gerber is made by FISKARS,

    HANDLE TOO SHORT

    • @SurvivalOnPurpose
      @SurvivalOnPurpose  8 месяцев назад

      That's what makes it a little more packable, which is always a trade off.

    For a truly unique hatchet, check out the Italian made, D2 steel Maserin Mantis which can also be used as an ulu. I have one & it’s awesome.
