Mountaineer Prototype 3

Prototype #3, the final prototype.

This compact 1.5lb head brings much versatility to the table with it's bearded blade and hammer head poll. A bearded blade allows for choking up behind the edge, providing greater control for finer tasks. The beard also allows for a wider blade on a lighter head. A hardened hammerhead makes this axe balanced and more suitable for hammering nails, posts, pegs, and stakes than other axes in its same weight class, like our mini camper. This axe bridges the gap between our Bearded belt carry axe and Trappers hatchet. The Mountaineer has a straight 16" handle for greater hammer control. Every Mountaineer comes standard with a leather sheath and built-in fire starter made by Uberleben, allowing you to start a fire everywhere your axe goes.
