CRKT Kangee Tomahawk with Sheath: Versatile Tactical Axe with Spike

Jairo BeatsTheBeatJairo BeatsTheBeat: I took advantage of the Molle feature and I attached my Kangee tomahawk’s sheath to my tactical backpack with some cable ties (the cord and buckles that come with this tomahawk are not really reliable, especially the tiny plastic buckles); a few reviews mention about its sheath issue; the issue with the sheath is easily solved by pulling the tomahawk’s spike side first; since mine is attached to a backpack, I’ve learned that I can place my thumb close to the tomahawk’s ‘shoulder’ (the top part of the handle) pressing my thumb against the tomahawk’s ‘beard’ part of the sheath and pulling the spike side first; the bottom part of the spiked area is not sharp at all, and your thumb will will assist in pulling and stopping the tomahawk safely; the weight is very well distributed and the handle’s design is pretty ergonomic.
One thing I advise, is that the handle has a micro-wavy design for easy grip; but if you plan on using the tomahawk for a few hours at a time, it’s much better to wrap the tomahawk’s ‘throat’ (the bottom part of the handle where you grab it) in paracord; (see my picture for the detail); the paracord will make the handle a bit thicker...

JHGreen: This is in my opinion the best hatchet for self defense that anyone could ask for! This, while being a sharp as f*** mother is by no means meant to be clearing brush and small trees while out with the kids on a weekend afternoon, though it is totally capable of this type of work!
This is more a strap to your hip tool you take with you for outdoor walks, camping and hikes, and have it there as a last resort defensive tool.
While there are book you can buy that will teach you defensive and offensive tactics with a hatchet, you don't need them, this is honestly a swing and move forward tool....it is what you want with you if the walking dead ever took place in real life!
Can not recommend this enough!!

mickey: Where do i start lol

LOOKS - a 10 out of 10 - Very nice looking,
weight is also very nice,
its a buy once cry once item for sure,
comes very very sharp, don't think one can sharpen it
more unless you also own a top of the line sharpener.
CONS ???
Its to nice to want to use lol really !!!
May as well get two of these because you wont want to
scratch this gem of a tool lol Really !!!

Strait up for those of you who do get one of these
you will regret it because as soon as you get it you
wont want to scratch it or use it,
it deserves to be placed on a nice wall for looks alone !!!

buy two or make room on the wall !!!

Amazon Customer: I LOVE THIS but my wife thinks there are better options to spread butter. Wish it came with a pen to help me sign the divorce papers. :(

Arnold: Su peso, balance y tamaño de la hoja/filo la hacen ser una excelente hacha para una mano. La probé cortando troncos secos de Guayabo de tres y cuatro pulgadas de diámetro (el Guayabo es una madera súper densa y dura) --se puede usar con dos manos también. Por su tamaño y diseño puede servir como arma táctica , pero dado que es full-tang y tiene un grosor considerable la sentí pesada y lenta al momento de ejecutar cortes transversales amplios --a diferencia de mi hacha American Tomahawk Lagana (que es más rápida y ágil para este propósito).

En resumen, me parece una excelente opción como hacha de monte y supervivencia.

Amazon Customer: UPDATE: I've been using this regularly as a woods tool and am still super impressed with it on that front but discovered recently a major flaw in the sheath system: you can damage or dent badly the edge if you pull this out a certain way and are yanking really hard on it, if you pull straight down or axe edge first the edge will hit the bottom rivet in the sheath, the damage on mine, while minor and fixable on a stone, did occur in the same spot shown in the pics on the other reviews here. You should pull it out spike first, kinda rotating the handle forward but that's not easy to remember when under pressure, like in a tactical situation and your trying to get it out asap. It's still a great axe, until this a hadn't even needed to sharpen it after half a dozen woods trips, so just be aware of this issue and careful of how you pull it out, you'll see exactly what I mean once you get it.
Bad to the bone. What else can I say? Super tough, top notch fit and finish, came sharper than most knives, unbelievably sharp actually, supreme feel and balance, excellent design, a great sheath/carry system and made out of a steel I've really come to like. I got this as a "the world's ending"...

Pietro: Questo è il mio secondo tomahawk. Ho deciso di cambiare il mio Smith & Wesson E&E in cerca di una valida alternativa più leggera, ergonomica e funzionale. Il CRKT Kangee si è rivelata una scelta perfetta: acciaio SK5, peso di 700 g, struttura full tang lunga 35 cm, manico ergonomico e testa con lama, dorso e punta affilate come rasoi.
Il fondo del manico è sagomato per garantire un'impugnatura salda e "abbraccia" letteralmente il mignolo, rendendo più difficile lo scivolamento accidentale del tomahawk; a questo si aggiunge anche il buon grip fornito dal motivo delle guancette in plastica avvitate ai lati del manico e una sagomatura che ne permette l'utilizzo con la mano in diverse posizioni.
La custodia in Kydex è robusta e ultrasicura, impossibile farne scivolare fuori il tomahawk. Dotata di sistema di aggancio M.O.L.L.E
Il perfetto connubio tra leggerezza, robustezza e versatilità ne fanno la scelta ideale per i trekkers come me, che hanno bisogno di uno strumento pratico e facile da trasportare per lunghe distanze.
Infine non si può non parlare del prezzo: 133,92 euro. Esistono tomahawk validi anche in fasce di prezzo più basse ma il Kangee,...
