A627 russia type axe with hardwood handle, striking tools, short wood shaft hatchet, high quality hatchet

A hatchet is a single-handed striking tool with a sharp blade on one side used to cut and split wood, and a hammer head on the other side. Hatchets may also be used for hewing when making flattened surfaces on logs; when the hatchet head is optimized for this purpose it is called a broad axe.

A hatchet should not be confused with a hand axe, which is a small axe meant to be used with one hand. Technically, a hatchet has a hammer head on the back side. A hand axe, like a normal axe, has a broad flat area on the back side.

Hatchets have a variety of uses, such as tasks normally done by a pocket knife when one is not present. The hatchet can also be used to create a fire through sparks and friction. Hatchet throwing is increasing in popularity.

Axe head is made of 45# carbon steel or 65Mn steel, forged, heat treatment, polishing, painting, powder coated or chrome plated.
