The Barebones Field Hatchet - Tomahawk is a sturdy, all-purpose chopping tool designed for outdoor and camping tasks. Whether you’re splitting kindling for a campfire or shaping wood for a shelter, this hatchet brings reliable performance to your kit without any unnecessary frills.
Featuring a high carbon steel blade and a solid hickory handle, this tomahawk strikes a balance between durability and control. The sharp steel edge holds up to repeated use, while the natural shock-absorbing properties of hickory help reduce fatigue and improve grip. At 40 cm in length and weighing 1.4 kg, it offers enough heft for clean cuts without feeling unwieldy when you’re swinging.
High carbon steel contains a higher percentage of carbon than standard steel, which means the blade stays sharper longer but can develop surface rust if not dried and oiled after use. Hickory is a dense, resilient hardwood often chosen for tool handles because it withstands impact and resists splitting, making it a dependable choice for a hatchet you’ll use outdoors.
