Axes & Saws
Axes and saws do the work a knife cannot, from splitting kindling at camp and clearing a blowdown off the trail to breaching obstacles in the field. This collection covers hand-forged axes, bushcraft hatchets, tactical tomahawks, and folding saws from heritage forges and modern American shops, chosen for users who care about steel, geometry, and a handle that stays tight. Pair one with a solid belt knife from our fixed blade knives and the whole woodcraft kit is covered.
Hatchets and Camp Axes
Heritage forges anchor the axe side. Hults Bruk axes have been forged in Sweden since 1697, from the compact Agdor 15 hatchet up to the Agdor 28 Montreal felling axe, while Karesuando brings Swedish bushcraft and hunting axes like the Unna Aksu. Snow & Nealley axes have come out of Maine since 1864, now drop forged and hand finished there again, including the classic Hudson Bay camping axe and Penobscot Bay kindling axe. German-made Adler axes such as the Rheinland hatchet round out the European patterns, one-piece Estwing camper's axes cover hard use, and Thorson Forge hand forges pieces like its 1095 truck axe in small batches.
Tactical Tomahawks and Breaching Axes
Tactical tomahawks are built for breaching, survival, and hard field use. RMJ Tactical leads the grid with USA-made hawks in 80CrV2 and Nitro-V under G-10, from the Jenny Wren and Kestrel to the Loggerhead and Bushcrafter hatchet. The American Tomahawk Company Model 1 carries the classic field-proven pattern, Toor Knives builds the D2 Toor Tomahawk, TOPS Knives adds the Hammer Hawk, and Cold Steel offers an accessible entry with the Viking axe. For traditional hawks, Thorson Forge's hand-forged pipe hawks are working art.
Folding Saws and Camp Saws
A good saw often outworks an axe on green wood and limbs. Silky saws set the standard with Japanese steel and impulse-hardened teeth, from the folding GomBoy and BigBoy to the fixed Nata. The packable Nordic Pocket Saw chain saw rolls up in a pouch, and the Kershaw Taskmaster folding saw covers yard and trail work. Whether you are processing firewood, clearing trail, or building out a bug out bag, the rest of our tools and gear fills in the kit.
