Overview

The Highland Hatchet is a Winkler Knives rendition of Daniel Winkler’s hand forged originals. The utilitarian nature of his forged works was the basis of his early relationship with America’s Tier 1 warriors and the origination of Winkler Knives. 

With an overall length of 10.87 inches and a fully skeletonized handle, the Winkler Highland Hatchet is a compact and lightweight tool. The stock of the hatchet is made of 3/8" 80CrV2 carbon steel. This durable material allows the hatchet to put up with the abuse of heavier camp chores, despite its light weight. Our edition comes with laser etched topo on beautiful maple slabs. 

Daniel Winkler specialized in forged knives and axes crafted in the tradition of Frontier America – a time when the tools a person carried meant sustenance and survival. The traditional nature of his work is evident in Winkler Knives designs but never more than with the Highland Hatchet. 

Bred for hard, honest use, the Winkler Highland Hatchet lives up to its heritage as a compact, lightweight and versatile tool with a distinctive place in the history of the American frontier.

Behind the scenes of Winkler Knives:

In 1975, as part of an effort to authentically outfit himself with the equipment of an 18th century woodsman, Daniel Winkler made his first knife. Fueled by this experience and his intrigue for early American history, Daniel worked diligently for the following decade to become a full-time bladesmith. More than twenty years later, he continues to pull inspiration from frontier America - a time when the equipment a person carried meant sustenance and survival - and successfully builds tools of uncompromising quality that preserve the heritage of utilitarian art.
