Adler The Yankee Hatchet - Hickory Red Stripe 15in 210.0h150b211

The Adler Yankee Hatchet is a rugged, dependable tool built for serious work, whether you're deep in the backcountry or taking care of tasks closer to home. Crafted with precision in Germany, this compact axe delivers the performance and durability trusted by professionals since 1919. Its 1.5 lb head is forged from C60 carbon steel in the classic “Yankee” pattern and hardened to a Rockwell rating of 47-55 HRC, offering reliable edge retention and the strength to handle a variety of chopping and splitting jobs.

Mounting the head is a time-tested combination of wood and a round metal wedge, providing a secure, lasting bond to the handle. That handle is made from high-quality hickory, sourced in the U.S. and selected for its natural shock-absorbing properties. Ergonomically shaped and finished with a matte black, anti-slip coating, it ensures a solid grip even in cold or wet conditions. A bold red stripe improves visibility but also adds to the hatchet’s professional look. At 15 inches long and with a total weight of 2.2 pounds, the Yankee Hatchet strikes an ideal balance of control and power, making it a go-to for campers, hunters, and DIYers alike.

Protection and portability are just as well considered. The included leather sheath is handmade in Lithuania and built to withstand hard use. Reinforced stitching and sturdy button closures keep the blade safely covered when not in use, while making it easy to attach to your gear or stow away between jobs.

Every detail of the Yankee Hatchet reflects Adler’s commitment to crafting tools that are built to last. From the durable steel head to the precision-fit handle and robust sheath, this is a hatchet that performs reliably, looks sharp, and is ready to work whenever you are.
