Axe Gang hatchet

Axe Gang® axe - The legendary axe from martial arts films

Cold Steel® is known worldwide for its passion for martial arts and its close connection to the film industry. Many of the company's employees are trained in various martial arts disciplines, and some even work as stuntmen, weapons specialists or fight choreographers in Hollywood. This enthusiasm has resulted in an impressive homage to one of the most famous weapons from kung fu films: the Axe Gang® hatchet.

This classic Chinese axe has been used in countless martial arts films over the decades and has earned a legendary reputation. Inspired by these iconic film weapons, Cold Steel® has created a modern interpretation with the Axe Gang® Hatchet, which is not only visually appealing but also impresses as a high-quality functional weapon.

Robust construction & high-quality materials

The Axe Gang® Hatchet is far more than a mere film prop - it is a fully functional axe that is perfect for practical use, as a collector's item or for historical re-enactments. The drop-forged axe head is made from 1055 carbon steel, which is characterised by high hardness, excellent cutting performance and outstanding impact resistance. Thanks to differential hardening, the cutting edge has a razor-sharp edge, while the rest of the axe head is designed to effectively absorb blows and impacts.

The handle is made from hand-selected American hickory, one of the best hardwoods for axe and hammer handles. This wood is not only particularly resistant, but also offers an excellent grip for precise blows and throws. A unique engraving in Kanji characters gives the axe an authentic look and sets it apart from conventional axes.

Versatile application possibilities

Whether as a collector's item, for martial arts choreography, as a wooden tool or for historical re-enactment - the Axe Gang® axe combines tradition, functionality and style. It is suitable for lovers of Asian weapons as well as HEMA martial artists or outdoor enthusiasts looking for a powerful and manoeuvrable axe.

Why 1055 carbon steel?

1055 carbon steel is known for its high impact resistance and toughness. It contains a balanced carbon content, which distinguishes it from more brittle steels and ensures a long service life. Thanks to its robustness, this steel is often used for large fixed knives, machetes and swords - and of course for first-class axes and hatchets such as the Axe Gang® Hatchet.
