Overall good, but it would be better with a heavier head because it's a bit too light for chopping. Works well for simpler tasks.
Paracord Axe is a handy and lightweight hatchet with a full tang construction. Its slim design ensures it fits easily in a backpack and does not restrict movement when worn on a belt or vest.
The head is made of stainless steel and coated with a black protective layer to prevent corrosion. One side features a cutting edge, while the other ends in a sharp spike, ideal for piercing and breaking. The handle includes an element for prying and nail removal.
The set includes a nylon sheath with internal reinforcement. Fastened with three metal snap buttons, it can be attached to straps up to 5 cm wide.

Generally fine, but it would be better if the head was a bit heavier – it’s a little too light for chopping. Besides that, it works well for lighter tasks.
-
Very good small axe, perfect size and balance for attaching to a backpack. The blade is sharp enough, and the design is well thought-out – it can be used for cutting and as an ice pick for driving in or breaking ice, and the handle works as a crowbar, so it's a practical 3-in-1 tool. The paracord does slide, but I wrapped the handle with camouflage tape and it stopped slipping. Highly recommend.
-
Light, nice little axe. The balance is a bit worse, but I mainly wanted something lightweight, so I rate it 5 stars.
-
Pretty good, but I had to replace the wrap because the original slid off.
-
This is exactly what I needed. I'll see how it performs with longer use.
-
Great little axe, I recommend it to others.
-
Useful for camping or a bonfire, good quality steel. However, it's not suitable for throwing. Unfortunately, the handle is problematic because the cord slides off after a few uses and it's hard to use without gloves.
-
Small, easy to use, and efficient. The only downside is the difficulty of pulling a thread through the handle hole (because of the type of braid), but otherwise everything is fine.
-
Works excellently for starting a fire and setting up camp, despite its small weight. The handle wrap fits well both in hand and with gloves. You can wear it on your belt. It has extra uses too: you can pull out nails, make an ice hole, or use it as an ice axe in a pinch. I recommend it!
-
Very practical small axe, works great for use in the field. Solid workmanship. I recommend it!
