MTech USA Xtreme – Axe – Stonewashed Finish Stainless Steel Axe Blade, Black G10 Handle, Full Tang Construction, Includes 1680D Nylon Sheath, EDC, Tactical – MX-AXE10BK

A great little Hatchet. I didn't take it too seriously at first but have since put it to the test in the field doing chopping. Amazingly with the same Force chop, it chopped about as deep as my estwing Hatchet. I have bought three now one for my day pack one for an emergency kit and one for my wife to take in her car. I have also choked up near the top to hold and make feather sticks as well as chop onions, frozen meat, and potatoes. It is lightweight, isn't too awkward to carry when hiking. A decent little Hatchet for chopping small limbs and small trees. All 3 hatchets came Sharp with a hollow type grind on it that is surprisingly holding up very well. I would recommend as it is strong, durable, and inexpensive.

This is a very small hatchet. I'm female and it's not much bigger than my hand. I thought it was going to be a little bit bigger than what it is. My fault for not paying attention to the dimensions. However all that aside, I'm going to keep it. I could use it to chop up small brush and game animals. It's got a little weight to it too. It seems to be well made and it's sharp. If anyone is expecting a big hatchet this is not it. But if you want something small for your camp bag this might be for you.. I gave it 5 stars because its not the makers fault i didnt pay close attention to the size plus it's well made. I just wish it was a little bigger.

It's pretty small. That's what I wanted, and I purposefully sought out a small axe. I wanted it for EDC (every day carry), believe it or not. Yeah, I know, a tomahawk is a pretty weird thing to pack around, but I just thought that'd be awesome. Tomahawk and knife? Come on. You can't beat that for fun. The last of the Tactical Mohicans.It's solid, almost 1/4" thick. I chose it because the head profile doesn't have a huge backspike that would interfere with concealment. The head shape and size are perfect for me. The handle is comfortable and the scales are very cool, but it suffers from being too short. It can do a little chopping, but for real tool/weapon use it needs about another three inches of reach. It's too short to accelerate the head much. I might end up making my own copy out of 2"x1/4" 5160 steel stock, with a slightly longer handle.The sheath is adequate for hiking, but for EDC it needs a kydex rig. The nylon sheath rides too low on the belt and is extremely difficult to free the hawk from. It does retain the weapon well. If you can't draw from it one-handed, it's not tactical enough.The axe throws well, but spins much faster than a normal tomahawk. It also has less striking power and takes a little more speed to stick well.

If you want a serious hatchet this ain't it. But if you want a little more chop than a average medium sized pocket knife this should be good for light task with out being over kill .I mainly use it to cut / chop through average size rope and zip ties and I have had no issues so far but it's only been a about a month.

VERY SMALL!!! ok I knew this was small when I ordered it expected it and was still a little suprised at it size so just be aware that the size is small. It got 3 stars from me for a couple of reasons. First it didn't come sharp as my other MTech knives. Second the edge is slightly uneven or wobbly however you want to say it. 3 rd and finally it was a bit dirty needs cleaning. Ok positives it is sturdy, it does sharpen up easily, and does cut small branches but it lacks weight due to its size to be a great chopper. I'd be satisfied with this as an add on back up axe on my back pack. Small saves weight. Over all I'd say it's ok for the price.

I was surprised how well made this little axe is. I tried it out on some roots in my yard and it did rather well for the small size. I did have to resharpen it since it's stainless not carbon steel. My only real complaint is the handle. It's a material like fiberglass and they put grooves in it for better grip. The grooves put a sore spot on the lower part of my fore finger. I decided to file the edges smooth which solved the problem. For light duty use this is a good choice. File the edges or heavy gloves however.

Bought this for our nephew as a gift. He loves it.

Its a cute little tool. Smaller than I anticipated but sharp and ready for action. Sheath leaves something to be desired as it's made for belt carry but would be cumbersome to draw and resheath. Should be a great add to my get home bag.
