Product Description
From the Manufacturer
Axes have been around for ages. And even our award-winning axes are hardly new. But the Gator Axe is a wood-busting' breakthrough. Because we applied our proprietary Gator textured rubber to the grip for an unprecedented level of comfort and control. Beneath that tactile rubber surface is a virtually indestructible glass-filled nylon handle. And inside that handle is a hollow area containing a magnet that can hold a knife. The axe head is engineered from forged steel, which does an outstanding job of keeping its edge.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
My first concern was with the weight of this axe by reading many reviews saying it was too light. I found this is not the case. Its not heavy by any means, but its not a lightweight. Swings well and feels good in the hand with the nice rubbery grips and end piece that prevents it from slipping, especially with any type of utility or winter gloves on. It splits and chips very well right out of the box. Its weight is very good in my opinion, and I've swung many axes in my day. I feel comfortable having it in my bag while tromping through the woods for hours. I feel confident it will plow through any deadfall, thick branches, or debris that we may need to remove to save someone.
The second item I was concerned with was the saw in the handle. There were a few reviews that said that it slips out. First off, when you put the saw back in the handle it has some friction, which helps it stay in place. Secondly, it has a nice, fairly strong magnet that helps keep it in place. Third, and most important, Gerber must have been listening to their customers because mine came with a nice rubbery end-cap that ensures the saw stays in place. Its very secure and also easy to remove (hangs by a strap that goes through the hole in the handle) with just the flick of a thumb. It also creates a "soft" handle end so it wont rip through gear and prevents damage to the handle if you happen to accidentally hit something with the end of the handle.
Overall, I'm very impressed. I highly recommend for campers, survivalists, and search and rescue crews.
I used this hatchet to split logs of the size 2x2 and 3x3, sometimes a little larger, mostly for kindling.
It's light, comfortable and a good camping companion; even slices through knots relatively well. Don't expect that hatchet to be a chopping axe - for that I use a Fiskars x15.
I pair this hatchet/saw combination with a Buck 120 Pro/124 Frontiersman when camping, and together all tasks I came across could be tackled easily.
If you want to buy that hatchet, you can find one sometimes on the web for around USD ~40.
Pro:
+ is sharp, stays sharp, sharpening is easy
+ handle is comfortable
+ handling is good
+ little saw is, if appropriately used, a beast & cuts well
+ sheath is great. Has enough room to fit a ferrocerium rod as well.
Negative
- plastic mold around the head cold come loose at some point
- I can see that, over time, splinters get between the axe head and the plastic mold, which could lead to damage of the plastic.
Would be good if Gerber addressed that topic by widening the axe head a tad before the plastic, so the splinters can't even reach the slit between the metal and the plastic.

Axe:
I have to split this into 3 sections because its needs this kind of review. I watched a lot of Youtube videos, whom get paid to review it and like it. But, real world is the only review it needs. THERE IS NOTHING COMPARABLE.
The Axe Blade:
This will cut your finger off like a knife. I cut my self not even 3 minutes out of the packaging. I just wanted to check the edge and was surprised (obviously). It has a good wide head without it being too big. I have a full size gerber axe and some 40 year old thing too. I wanted something lightweight that still does the job. The SOG verision is a little longer but is super thin compared to this. I have used it to split an entire cord of wood and the blade is still sharp. The blade is heat treated. I can still throw it if I wanted too.
The Axe Head Back.
This is what majorly separated itself from anything else. This is a full size hammer head that takes some disrespecting abuse. I was hammering nail points to try and F*&@ it up. For a basic preppers carrying too many tools is stupid and ignorant.
The Axe handle.
I tried to break it. I failed. After bending it, Throwing huge rocks at it, and then taking my 04 Suburban and driving over it, I couldn't break it. It is polymer (plastic) but that's what makes it resilient. I know I could cut it off with the little saw that comes with it, but no axe will handle that, and why in the world would you do that anyway.
It comes with a head cover! I keep it in this now so I don't hurt myself again. Its very durable and has some hanging options on it. I wish it had Molle compatible webbing but made it work without it on the side of my back.
The Saw:
Its a typical little saw, its full tang and runs up into the handle which is good, didn't use it much but it is the reason I bought this set. Try to cut down on weight in my pack and increase its usage this is perfect, Its nice and sharp as well and best yet, its in the axe handle. Its held in place by a rubber strap, and will be handy if I ever need it.
Hands down best tool for camping, Hiking Ive ever owned. I own Gerber hand tools and many guns and knifes. In a real life world tool, this is necessary and sharp.
The axe is also quite good. The handle is nice and grippy at the bottom, and smooth at the top, which makes for a nice swinging action. The blade angle is pretty thin so it cuts pretty easily. It comes RELATIVELY sharp out of the box. Sharp enough to use (I used it right out of the box) but it could be much better.

Dimensioni e peso molto interessanti per il trasporto.
Molto comoda la fondina con il passante per la cintura che oltre a proteggere bene non da assolutamente fastidio negli spostamenti.
Usata oggi su rami di piccole e medie dimensioni (fino a 20cm di diametro) devo dire che è magnifica.
Unica pecca forse le dimensioni del seghetto che dalle immagini pensavo più grande; ma al di là di questo l’incastro nel manico della scia è perfetto e ben congeniato, inoltre anche il sistema di bloccaggio della testa della manico molto ergonomico e pratico e non consente l’uscita della segna anche con grosse sollecitazioni.
Ben fatta. Più che soddisfatto dell’investimento
Klasse Funktion mit super Messer im Stiel der Axt.Bin wirklich begeistert.
Für das Geld absolut zu empfehlen.
Zelt Heringe lassen sich mit der Rückseite auch Klasse eintreiben.
Der Nächste Campingausflug kann kommen.👍🏻
Das Geld ist die Axt auf jeden Fall wert.
Sie ist robust, stabil und sieht gut aus.
Auf jeden Fall eine Kaufempfelung.
