The Estwing E2H Carpenter’s Hatchet is a 13-inch one-piece forged steel hatchet with smooth face and the brand’s classic Genuine Leather Grip. Designed for rough carpentry — driving, splitting, prying, and pulling — with a sharp axe edge on one side and a hammer poll on the other.
Right tool for log-cabin builders, off-grid framers, restoration carpenters working old-growth lumber, and anyone who needs both a framing hammer and a small axe in a single tool.
Estwing has been forging hammers in Rockford, Illinois since 1923 — the original American one-piece forged-steel hammer maker. Every E-series tool is forged from a single piece of steel and made in the USA, with the patented Shock Reduction Grip or Genuine Leather Grip across the line.
