One of Gerber's most useful tools is this 26" Bushcraft axe. It has a black and gray GFN handle with a rubber overmold. The rubber overmold gives it a comfortable grippy hold when swinging and chopping. The axe head is PTFE coated carbon steel. The machined reliefs on the blade allow for deeper cuts. The handle has an in-handle storage stick that includes 9-feet of paracord and a compartment for a firestarter or a mini lighter. It is water resistant and has a push button to unlock the storage stick.
