Thanks to Deal Hunter phoinix for sharing this deal.

Product Description:
  • The Cold Steel Trail Boss is compact enough to carry all day in your hand or strapped to your pack, yet tough enough for chores that would make a hatchet or tomahawk scream for mercy. Featuring a European style head with a 4" blade and a 4 1/2" cutting edge, it takes a big bite with every swing. Plus, it features a very sturdy, durable straight-grained American Hickory handle. In our extensive field-tests in the outback of Australia, the Trail Boss was used to chop kindling, clear roads and trails, to build blinds and even to chop down a fair sized tree! Head weight: 1lb 13 oz (not NATF legal). Total weight: 2lb 9.5 oz.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank icanseeyourepidermis

decent price for a weak tool: I bought one of these for $22 five years ago and broke the handle off within a few weeks.

Decent price, but not a good axe for splitting due to the head profile. If you want a splitting axe of similar size I'd recommend Fiskars X25

I'll second the Fiskars recommendation. I have many of their tools including hatchets, axes and a splitting maul. I haven't been disappointed in any of them. They make great shovels too. I'd buy just about anything made by Fiskars.

Yeah, I recommend a Fiskars for a splitting axe but again this is not meant for splitting.

Yeah, this is similar to a GB Small Forest Axe for backpacking, not a splitting maul. I have one of these and love it, but know what it is for.

What's the durability of this axe against zombies and PDF cult members?

The head is fine, durability-wise. If your zombies are relatively fresh, you may want to slightly reprofile the head to thin the cheeks so it doesn't stick. Handles are always a crapshoot unless you can pick it out in person. But if you do break the one that comes with it, it's a great opportunity to (1) learn to read the grain and understand what makes a handle strong, and (2) learn how to rehang an axe. It's not that difficult, and it's better to learn -before- the first human host is infected.
