Nature is calling. Tackle it with ease with this trusty Damascus steel outdoor axe by your side. 1095/15N20 steels have been expertly fire forged and folded together approximately 350-358 times to create the stunning wavelike pattern seen on the blade of this axe. The blade has been heated and quenched to obtain a Rockwell rating between 58-60 that surpasses in flexibility and shatter resistance. The sharpened blade can clear away brush and small branches like a master, and use the squared butt of the head to hammer in steaks to secure your tent. A pure brass mosaic pin adorns the center of the cheek of the head. Sheesham heartwood has been skillfully smoothed and contoured for a comfortable grip, and is sealed for a beautiful shine that will last. A lanyard hole is cut into the bottom of the handle to an optional rope or cord attachment. Included is a 100% genuine leather sheath with 3 snap closure for a secure hold and a belt loop for easy carry. Overall Length: 16 inches, Blade Length: 4.25 inches
