Tomahatchet
Story
The Medford Tomahatchet is a compact yet robust mini axe designed for serious backcountry explorers who prioritize functionality and quality without excessive weight. Crafted from a single piece of durable CPM S7 tool steel, its smaller, Nordic-influenced "bearded head" is capable of a myriad of tasks, ranging from improvisational skinning to various field craft applications. The design marries a traditional handle silhouette with this distinctive axe head for maximum cutting edge efficiency. The Tomahatchet features comfortable G10 handles, often available in various colors, which provide excellent traction during use. Each Tomahatchet is hand-ground and softened, showcasing Medford's commitment to craftsmanship. It comes with a Kydex sheath, offering versatile mounting and carrying options to suit the user's needs, making it a reliable companion for any outdoor adventure.
