The OX Pro 14-Inch Carbon Steel Hatchet is made for professional use. Constructed from high quality materials, this hatchet is durable and versatile. Made from one-piece forged carbon steel, the hatchet stays sharper longer and is suitable to take on any jobsite conditions. The hatchet also includes a genuine American hickory handle which dampens striking vibration and lessens the chance of injury or strain. The tool includes a hatchet on one side of the head as well as a striking face on the other side. The striking face is a smooth face hammer head which allows this to be a dual-purpose tool.
