The Fiskars X7 14" Hatchet is a lightweight, high-performance hatchet built for splitting kindling, chopping small to medium logs, clearing brush, and tackling tough yard tasks. Part of Fiskars' award-winning X-Series, the X7 combines a precision-ground forged steel blade, optimized weight distribution, and a virtually unbreakable handle to deliver maximum power on every swing.

The PermaHead® insert-molded design permanently bonds the head to the handle so it will never loosen or fly off. The DuraFrame® handle is virtually unbreakable — it will not crack, splinter, or warp like traditional wood handles. A heavy-duty plastic sheath is included for safe storage. Made in Finland. Backed by Fiskars' lifetime warranty. Winner of the 2010 Red Dot Product Design Award.

What makes the Fiskars X7 Hatchet different from a traditional hatchet?
The X7 uses advanced blade geometry, a proprietary grinding technique, and perfected weight distribution to chop up to 3x deeper than a traditional axe on each swing, so you can split more wood with less effort and less hand strain.
Will the head ever loosen or come off?
No. The PermaHead® insert-molded design permanently bonds the axe head to the handle so it cannot loosen over time the way a traditionally hung wooden-handle axe can.
Is this hatchet good for camping and backpacking?
Yes. The compact 14" overall length and lightweight design make the X7 an ideal trail and camp hatchet for chopping kindling and processing small to medium logs at the campsite.
Does the Fiskars X7 Hatchet come with a sheath?
Yes, a heavy-duty plastic sheath is included for safe storage and transport. It can also be used to hang the hatchet near a fireplace when not in use.
