23.5 in Axe

Gerber axes are built with an eye to hurdling trouble. Whether it's for camping, on a work site for hard labor, or puttering in the backyard, the 23.5 Axe, like the original Gerber 23.5 Axe, is light in the handle and tough in the blade, serving its owner with the excellence that modern technology and good steel have combined to deliver.SWING WITH CONFIDENCE:One of the benefits of the 23.5 Axe is its solid, easy swing. Coupled with a super sharp blade made of hardened forged steel possessing excellent edge retention, this axe will chop up to three times deeper than average and provide for greater productivity, which spells out savings in time, effort, and strain on the body of its operator. The tactile grip of the nylon handle contributes to relief of body strain, too, as well as improved control during each swing.KEEPING AN EDGE WITH EASE:Beyond the task of tree felling, the 23.5 Axe, given its light heft and ultra sharp edge, works equally well to delimb branches and clear brush. Coated with a low friction surface, the blade of this axe slices through wood without sticking, while its well engineered head splits wood cleanly. Built to last, the 23.5 Axe has a tough glass filled nylon handle with a comfortable, grippable soft touch over mold and a stainless steel blade that is hardened and forged, equating to edge retention that well outpaces traditional axe blades.
