Gerber has a reputation for producing some of the finest tools, knives and outdoor gear on the market thanks, in part, to having done it successfully for half a dozen decades. Their products always incorporate clever features and functional design, but the company isn’t afraid to use those tools to produce things like the Apocalypse Kit, either. Built in Finland with a forged steel head and composite, soft touch handle, this 9″ Hatchet is equal parts rugged, reliable, durable and comfortable. The 1.2lb ace also has a low-friction surface coating for easy slicing and a plastic sheath for easy carrying and storage.
