A hatchet is an invaluable tool — particularly in winter, when temperatures drop and the wood pile isn't going to chop itself. Just in time for the season of gathering around the fire (and preferably roasting marshmallows), The James Brand has unveiled its newest release: a hatchet collaboration with Adler.
For over 100 years, Adler has been crafting some of the best and most respected tools in the world. Established in 1919 by Josef Schmitt, who founded a small blacksmith shop in Southern Germany, Adler has grown over the past century into the world-renowned axe manufacturer it is today. Most of its axes feature ergonomic hickory handles, adorned with non-slip paint.

The TJB Hatchet is crafted from the same US-sourced hickory, and features a forged C60 steel head with a protective, heavy-duty leather sheath made in Lithuania. The head shape is the classic German "Rheinland" design, which offers a larger, curved cutting surface. The hatchet weighs in at 1.9 pounds, with a head weight of 1.35 pounds, and features a 14-inch handle.
The perfect size for jobs both big and small, the Adler x The James Brand Hatchet was designed to be easy to use both during jobs close to home or out in the wilderness. Rather than the primary colors found on most Adler axes, the TJB version features the brand's iconic green and black colorway, in a non-slip paint that will help keep hatchet wielders everywhere safe from accidents.
The TJB Hatchet will ship in a custom wooden box — great for storage when you're not using it, as well as the perfect vessel for holiday gifting. In that spirit, The James Brand is offering free shipping in North America for orders over $150 USD, along with a free TJB Titanium Bottle Opener gift on orders of $300 or above (while supplies last).
