The tactical tomahawk, made by SOG, is an amazing twist on the traditional tomahawk. Based off the US army tactical tomahawk which was used in Vietnam, this beast of a tool can be used for excavation, extraction, hammering, chopping, breaching operations, obstacle removal, and much more. Boasting a fiberglass reinforced nylon handle, durable 420 stainless steel and a strong side hammer for pounding, the tactical tomahawk is worth far more than it’s retail cost.
- A 420 stainless steel head with 2.75-inch edge
- Side hammer checkering for precise placement when pounding
- A steel ferrule for additional strength
- A durable ballistic polymer handle
Buy it from Amazon:$38.00
Buy it From SOG: $62.00

The digging spike on the end saved my life, (or at least a broken leg.)
I was climbing high up on a mountain in washington, and the snow was very deep. At one point, the snow beneath my feet collapsed, and I took a twenty foot tumble down the slope. I came to a stop at the edge of a small cliff, (about 30 feet) and my entire left foot with snowshoe had been buried in the snow that fell with me, and it WAS STUCK.
I seriously was hanging over the edge by my leg which was canted at an angle that is not recommended.
With a 40 pound pack on my back, I couldn't reach up to dig my foot out. Sooo, I took out the trusty tomahawk, (which I keep in a loop on my thigh) and used the edge to cut the straps off of my pack to ditch the extra weight, I was then able to reach the buried leg with the digging spike. a couple of minutes later I had dug myself out, and saved my leg, (wich I failed to mention was in serious danger of being bent at such an angle as to break at any moment.)
I cannot recommend it enough. Seriously, Thank you the people at SOG.
I bought 2 and gave one to my brother for his birthday. My brother is a retired Phoenix Fire Fighter (32 Years) and told me it was the best short axe he has ever seen. I am a professional knife sharpener and I am truly impressed with the quality of the cutting edge. It came very sharp an I have no problem sharpening it to keep a perfect edge. The weight and balance are excellent along with the quality of workmanship, Great job SOG.
I also bought two, I gave one to my buddy and kept one for myself. It has found it's way into the trunk of my car and has been used more frequently than I expected to use a tomahawk. I understand why the Shawnee in this area carried them daily (hundreds of years ago). very versatile tool, good edge, nice weight for chopping and hammering, and will definitely shatter a window and puncture a tire. I am going to buy one for my 8 year old so he can pass his hatchet down to his little brother (reuse and recycle, that's what I always say). Hope for the best, plan for the worst!
The SOG is worthless. Buy RMJ tactical
