Description
Designed for wilderness survival, heavy campsite prep, and long-term backcountry utility, the Gerber Bushcraft Axe is a purpose-built chopping and hammering tool. Featuring a forged steel axe head with a tall blade grind for deeper cuts, this axe combines maximum chopping efficiency with multi-functional versatility. Its ergonomic, hollow glass-filled nylon handle features an overmolded rubber grip that absorbs shock and provides slip-resistant control in harsh weather conditions. Ingeniously engineered, the handle houses a water-resistant gear storage stick to hold paracord, a lighter, or tinder. Complete with a hammer-head poll on the reverse side and a heavy-duty blade sheath, the Gerber Bushcraft Axe is built to tackle demanding wilderness chores.
How To Use
-
Chopping & Limbing: Hold the lower grip of the handle securely, line up your target, and swing with controlled momentum to chop through heavy logs, limbs, or firewood.
-
Choking Up for Detailed Tasks: Place your upper hand in the choke-up relief directly below the axe head for increased control when carving wood or preparing tinder.
-
Pounding & Driving Stakes: Utilize the flat, hardened hammer poll on the back of the axe head to pound tent stakes, wooden pegs, or break up material.
-
Accessing Handle Storage: Pull the rubberized end cap at the base of the handle to retrieve the internal water-resistant gear stick for storing emergency tinder or fire-starting gear.
-
Sheath Storage: Cover the forged head with the included heavy-duty sheath and snap the retention strap tightly before transporting.
