SPD "Sonora" Edition of the Hardcore Hammers Survivalist Hatchet. Featuring a 19oz head on 18″ American Hickory curved handle with custom, hand applied, tricolor combo accent, custom tooled SPD Kraken Trident stamp, and includes a custom made leather sheath. This SPD X Hardcore Hammers Survivalist Hatchet is a culmination of all that has been learned about the craft of tool making. We consider it one of the pinnacles of hatchet design. Made from top quality 4140 tool steel (AKA “Ordnance steel” because it’s commonly used for making breech and barrel parts for guns and cannons) for both toughness and edge retention, and ground to within a +/-.005″ tolerance, the curved blade is designed for both optimal cutting and splitting wood. Also incorporated is a nail/tent stake puller and the hammer end has their patented recessed striking face. At 19oz on an 18″ handle, it’s perfectly balanced for any job, whether it’s pounding nails, chopping and splitting firewood, and of course (do we really have to say it?) fending off brain eating mobs of the undead. This premium hatchet cuts like a full size axe yet is small enough to fit in a backpack. It comes with a top quality custom fitted leather sheath.

Carter E. ★★★★★

The curved hickory handle fits my grip like it was carved for me, and the 19oz head feels perfectly balanced for a full afternoon of splitting. I've owned a dozen hatchets and this one bites deeper with less effort every single swing. The custom tooling on the Kraken is a nice touch that gets compli

Sophia ★★★★★

The tricolor accent on the head is way more striking in person than in the photos, and the 18-inch hickory handle gives it a nice balanced swing. I’ve only split a few logs so far, but the 19oz head bites deep without much effort.

Avery ★★★★★

That curved hickory handle feels like it was made for my grip — the balance is spot-on with that 19oz head. The hand-tooled Kraken detail on the side is a nice touch nobody else will have. Swung it through a few logs this weekend and it bit deep every time.
