CAMP HATCHET SKINNER
« on: January 23, 2008, 06:01:00 PM »
Been working on this idea for awhile. The idea is a camp hatchet and a knife combo. i know it's done been done before but I always liked the idea. This hatchet is 1/4" thick thec head is 4.5" long and a cutting edge of 2.75" oal 11". She is not completely done yet still have a little finish work to do. No not taking the lines out of the blade I like them there. I believe the handle is ziricote. She does have some heft for being a smaller camp hatchet. The hatchet and knife will rest in a combo belt sheath. So what ya think?<><

Very cool idea, Frank!  That ziricote is some neat looking wood too.  Overall, a head turner!
I wonder if the blade is best left softer for the beating it is sure to take?
