Product Description
Halfbreed Blades Compact Rescue Axe (CRA-01-BLK) 2.55" K110 D2 Axe and Hammer Head, Black G-10 Handle, Black Kydex Sheath
The Compact Rescue Axe CRA-01, a product of Halfbreed Blades, embodies the epitome of compactness without sacrificing its accessibility as an impact and cutting tool. This multi-functional apparatus has been crafted with a steadfast adherence to robust performance and durability. It is well-adapted for versatile actions including Method of Entry (MOE), Close Quarters Battle (CQB), rescuing endeavours, survival situations and their pursuant tasks.
The CRA-01's unique design geometry alongside ergonomic contours provide enhanced flexibility; these allow for the gripping transition between high-level precision work such as slicing or shaving to powerful stroke submissions - achievable through lower grip handling. The handle scales are fine-tuned with precision originating from G10 – fabricating them with a non-abrasive texture.
Despite its relatively petite dimensions, the CRA-01 maintains efficacy in functionality inferred by virtue of a broad cutting head that assures maximum surface contact. Complementary to its sharpened primary edge is an incorporated hammer face facilitating beneficial striking proficiencies coupled with crushing potentialities geared towards material destruction.
Features:
- One-piece full tang construction.
- Austrian made 8mm Bohler K110 (D2) tool steel. The entire tool is overbuilt for outstanding longevity.
- Proprietary heat treatment process enhances the resilience of K110 (D2) to shock, yielding exceptional performance.
- Easy to maintain razor-sharp cutting edge.
- Hard-wearing, low friction Teflon coating mitigates glare and protects against corrosion. Available in black, dark earth and ranger green solid colour options, and select duotone colour choices (detials listed with SPECS).
- Hammer head and blade design are optimized for striking and chopping tasks.
- US made G10 handle scales are ergonomically contoured for less abrasion with non-gloved hands.
- Bevelled edges. The entire perimeter of the handle and portions of the axe head controlled by direct contact with the hand are machine bevelled to reduce abrasion and increase comfort.
- Jimping at key points along the grip enhances handling characteristics.
- Handle scales are secured by steel torx fittings.
- Crusher pommel ideally suited for breaking glass and other hammering tasks.
- Pommel lanyard hole allows for paracord attachment.
- US made Kydex. We believe the carry system supplied with our tools is as important as the tool it protects. Each sheath is precision molded for secure retention and easy maintenance. A friction lock system holds the axe snugly in its sheath, added retention is offered via a quick release safety strap with press-stud. All CRA-01 sheaths are PALS/MOLLE compatible and come supplied with two primary attachment options including Belt & PALS/MOLLE.
