New from APOC Survival Tools is the Barrens Pack Axe - This handy mid-size brawler is overbuilt for big tasks but nimble enough for smaller work. For the biggest jobs the handle is long enough for two hands and really puts some power behind the large cutting bit. At 1 lbs 15 oz, the weight is not overbearing for carrying on the inside or outside of your pack with its Molle compatible sheath. The Viking-style bearded head lets you choke up to easily make feather sticks, prep some tinder or carve notches for traps. It even works as an ulu style knife for food prep. Perfect for felling and fire prep or quick shelter assembly, the Barren is ideal to replace a larger, more cumbersome axe. The flattened poll (butt) allows you to drive stakes without splitting the ends or smash through ice. The whole hatchet is milled from a single piece of 9260 spring steel that's tempered to the low 50's HRC. Handle scales are solid milled G10, contoured for comfort with a swell at the end to keep it in your hand. Overall: 16" Blade Length: 5 1/2" Handle Length: 8 7/8" Weight: 1 lbs 15 oz Blade Steel: 9260 Handle Material: G10
