The X13 hiking axe is the lightest one in the X Series. It is perfect for hiking, camping, and bushcraft use, plus light wood-related work at home. It excels in activities where minimizing weight is essential. Long-range patrollers, ultralight hikers, and other light-minded folks take this in your pack; you won’t be sorry.

This axe won the Red Dot Best of the Best design award in 2023. Don’t take it to mean that this is some dysfunctional decorative element for a hipster home. Usability and functionality have been the focal point of this design. The balance is carefully thought out to get the maximum efficiency out of a compact and lightweight axe. The poll is made for hammering tent stakes to the ground and other similar tasks. The sheath has a very secure locking mechanism. So, you can pound those tent stakes without having to fear that your forehead makes a blood pact with the axe or the sheath goes flying into the wilderness.

This tool is easy to carry along, and it fits nicely in your pack (unless you stuffed it full of beer already). You can also hang it from your belt. The coating on the blade reduces friction and prevents rust. The blazing orange FiberComp™ handle is extremely durable and easy to spot in any terrain. So, when you put it down for a second, it won't be lost forever.
