The tomahawk/axe is a reliable and dependable tool for firewood. It is lightweight and perfect for backpacking.
I bought this for my north Texas bug out bag where the trees are too small and scattered to warrant carrying a full axe, but the mesquite that is everywhere is too much for a simple machete. It fits the bill perfectly for a light weight, multi-function tool.

The handle constantly falls off unless secured, which is a safety issue.
