Roughneck Vintage Hatchet Hand Axe | Product Demo

Описание: The Roughneck Vintage Hatchet Hand Axe features a traditional design and modern manufacturing standards.

Available in a variety of weight options (600g, 800g, and 1kg), this hand axe serves multiple outdoor applications, including log splitting, kindling preparation, and general wood processing tasks. Each model features a heat-treated and tempered blade that can be resharpened as needed throughout its working life.

Blade Construction and Performance:

The cutting edge undergoes a multi-stage heat treatment process before receiving a polished finish. This treatment increases the steel's hardness while maintaining enough flexibility to withstand impact forces during chopping operations. The traditional offset blade design positions the cutting edge ahead of the handle centreline, generating greater cutting power when the axe strikes wood. This geometry works particularly well for deep cuts and splitting applications where penetration depth matters.

Handle Design and Assembly:

Each hatchet comes fitted with an FSC-approved stained hickory shaft sourced from American Hickory timber. The wood exhibits high shock absorption properties and natural strength characteristics that suit impact tools. The handle connects to the blade head using a cross wedge paired with two steel ring wedges, creating a mechanical lock that distributes striking forces across multiple contact points. At the base, the handle features a splayed end that acts as a physical barrier to prevent the tool from slipping from your grip during swing-through motions.

Weight Distribution and Storage:

The 1kg model provides sufficient head mass for effective splitting work without requiring excessive swing effort. The weight sits forward of the grip point, allowing momentum to carry through each strike. A protective sleeve covers the blade during storage and transport, preventing accidental contact with the sharpened edge and protecting the blade from moisture and debris when not in use.
