Product Description:
The Back Paxe is Gerbers lightweight, easy-to-pack hatchet that is both functional and convenient. The Back Paxe combines a full size hatchet head with a compact, space saving handle. The axe head is made of forged steel, tempered to take and hold a superior cutting edge. The axe handle is made of Polyamide, a virtually unbreakable fiberglass reinforced polymer. Gerbers manufacturing process actually molds the Polyamide handle around the axe head, insuring that it will never separate or come loose from the handle under normal use. Like the rest of Gerbers axes, Back Paxe will prove to be indispensable to backpackers, kayakers, rafters, hunters, and other outdoor enthusiasts whose activities call for functional, space-saving equipment.

About Gerber
In 1939 Joseph Gerber hired a local knife maker to build 25 sets of kitchen cutlery to be given as Christmas gifts. The knives were so popular that Joseph Gerber left his advertising agency to start Gerber Legendary Blades®. The unique style and high quality manufacturing of Gerber cutlery soon developed wide spread acclaim. In fact, Gerber Legendary Blades are the only cutlery on display in New Yorks famous Museum of Modern Art.
From very early on, Gerber collaborated with top knife designers, setting a standard of quality for everyone else to follow. Renowned designers such as Al Mar, Bob Loveless, Paul Poehlmann, "Blackie" Collins, William Harsey Jr. and Ernest Emerson have all designed knives for Gerber. In 2002 this tradition continued as Gerber released the Silver Trident?, designed by Chief James "Patches" Watson (U.S.N. Ret.) and Bill Harsey Jr.
Today, Gerber continues to design and manufacture unique, high quality outdoor recreation products. In 2003 we are proud to introduce the next generation of multi-tools: the Recoil Auto-Plier. By constantly utilizing new technology and innovative design to develop new products, Gerber continues to be an industry leader.
