Greatness Outdoors: The media could not be loaded.  Pro's:
- Super lightweight and compact for backpacking
- A variety of tools all in one

Con's:
- Not for heavy use
- Sheath design is different than what is pictured, and it doesn't hold the fire starter well at all

Not everyone likes to carry a hatchet when they go backpacking. It is such a heavy item that most folks don't want to try to pack one around. However, this little hatchet shatters the myth that hatchets are too heavy! The hatchet and sheath (without the fire starter) only weigh 10.65 ounces. This is less than half the weight of the Fiskars X7 (22.25 oz), so this is a great weight savings. This weight savings is exactly what I was looking for in a lightweight backpacking hatchet.

I also like that this hatchet is multifunctional. It has three hex wrenches, a rope cutter, paracord, and can be used as a fire starter as well. So, not only do you get a hatchet, but you also get a tool that you can use for other purposes too. When one tool can do the job of many tools, it saves you from having to carry extra tools which can make your pack even heavier. This is a great feature of this...

Buckeye HD RiderBuckeye HD Rider: Right out of the pack this hatchet was "Razor" sharp. Small and very lightweight, it packs well into it's holder that is included as is a ferrocerium rod. When motorcycle camping, weight and size are huge considerations and this hatchet is ideal.The handle is a little rough on the hand if not wearing gloves hence the 4 stars. The parracord wrap does improve this somewhat. All things considered - a great buy. Very satisfied.

Holly: For the price you really can't go wrong. Blade came sharp. Solid overall construction. Have yet to beat it up but, again, for the price, it'll go perfectly in my emergency kit.

Amazon Customer: Arrived on time and looks like an awesome product so far. It was however IMPOSSIBLE to get out of the packaging. Nowhere to tear, pull etc. Could barely cut into the plastic and then took two grown men to peel the packaging apart from there.

Thunderbolt02: I play disc golf and wanted something small enough to fit in the bottom of my disc golf bag. I wanted it so I could acquire branches or roots and use them to aid in retrieving my golf discs. It is very sharp and found it is nice to have when I need it. It is flat and has a sheath and lays nicely in the bottom of my bag. Well played golf courses get stripped of every available branch and stick in the aid of retrieving discs in trees and brush and streams and ponds so having this tool gives me more options. Bought one extra for my grandson who is a scout and thought he would find a use for it when he goes camping. The flint and the paracord will be more appealing to him than to me. It works best on side blows as it is very light and very sharp.

Amazon Customer: More of a toy than an actual survival item but it will do what it’s ment to, just not well

Nolan K.: Very very good, comes out of package very sharp, and ready to use. Paracord is very strong and is a durable grip for the hatchet, my only concern is if you were looking for a bigger sized hatchet, this is pretty small, but good for chopping firewood, and brush.All in all it is a very good weapon and tool.

loveliberates: I haven't tested this hatchet yet and I am looking forward to taking it out for an upcoming camping trip and see how it really performs in the field. What I was surprised by is the 8 or 9 feet of orange paracord wrapped around the handle along with the sheath and magnesium stricker
that came with it was a bonus.
