Kalahari Bush Axe

The Kalahari Axe is essential part of your EDC, Bushcraft or camping gear that you never knew you needed! Ideal gift for any outdoor enthusiast! 

Unlike other axes and hawks, this axe does not have a conventional eye. It is designed to be fitted into a root burl of a hard wood. Small, lightweight and very versatile!

This allows the tool to be converted in seconds from an axe, hoe, scraper, adze and as a small ulu style cutter. 
Great for Skinning, Fleshing a Hide, A Kitchen Knife, Herb Cutter, Bark Removal, Making Cordage as well as chopping trees!

Kalahari Axe Details Details:
High strength 5160 carbon steel head giving durability as well as a sharp cutting edge.
6"x3" (15cm x 7cm)
250g.

Kalahari Axe Options:
Axe Head & Sheath - Posted next working day!
Add a design - Any design idea brought to life, carved within a week.

History :
This Axe design goes back 1.8 million years in the form of the Acheulian Hand-Axe. The design has barely changed through the Stone Age, Bronze or Iron Age and still used today in the Kalahari tribes. 

Care instructions:
•Carbon steel will rust so please use oil after use. I recommend Mineral Oil as it can be used on the handle and leather sheath too, veg oil can also be used.
• If stored in leather sheath, oil and then wrap in plastic, clingfilm works great. This is to prevent rusting.

Wonderful product at a fair price!

I bought this as something of an all purpose neck knife. I know that is far from the intended purpose, but its a steel blade. I love the idea of being able to use it as a rocker style (Ulu) type knife for cutting rope, etc... as well as the extended capability to fashion this into a kind of hatchet and Adze...very versatile tool, leave it to the ancients to teach us new things!
