The Survival Axe is an American-made multipurpose tool that provides 30 tools most frequently needed for rescue and survival. It incorporates an all-steel head and tang of 1055 carbon steel and an ergonomic, lightweight glass-filled nylon handle designed to provide a much better grip and balance while using this powerful American-made rescue multi-tool. The factory-sharpened Axe edge is excellent for chopping, clearing unwanted debris, and prying. Should it become dull, the edge can be re-sharpened. The hammer head and claw allow you to breach walls and remove debris and hammer nails.
The hardened steel glass breaker at the base of the handle is used to gain rapid entry into the accident vehicles' side and rear windows. The axe blade will cut through the laminated glass of the windshield.
The integrated 6” saw blade folds from the handle and cuts through almost anything, including windshields, metal, and wood. The supplied saw blade is easily replaceable, allowing you to switch it out in any situation. Replacement blades are available at any hardware store.
The hatchet head has an entire set of features built into it: a hammerhead, eleven hex sockets of 9/16”, 15mm, 1/2”, 13mm, 3/8”, 7/16”, 10mm, and 11 mm. The axe head also contains a back ¼” hex socket for any ¼” bit.
The axe head incorporates a gas valve shut-off wrench, a built-in bottle opener in the tang, a pry bar, and a nail puller. It also has demolition grip teeth and a spanner wrench for hose couplings.
The Box Cutter and can Opener tips are ideal for breaking glass, and the pry bar is perfect for prying applications. The Box cutter may be used to rip through the laminated front windshield. The combination box cutter tip also functions as a spanner wrench.
The ergonomic glass-filled nylon handle has its own set of unique features. The base of the handle contains a replaceable seat belt cutter or strap cutter with a safety blade mounted at the base of the handle. A hardened Steel Glass Breaker is located at the end of the handle for breaking vehicle side and rear windows, permitting the rescuer to carry a single tool to accomplish multiple rescue tasks, from breaking glass to cutting seat belts. Upper and lower finger guards are provided to protect your hand when breaking glass. A push and twist is required to open and lock the replaceable saw blade designed to cut steel and glass to open up a vehicle or building.
The Survival Axe is compact—it is only 11.7 inches long with the saw blade closed and weighs only 1.5 lbs. It's large enough to do serious rescue work, light enough to carry in a pocket or on your belt, and small enough to fit in any vehicle.
For those who desire the protection of a sheath, there are two options: an included nylon or an optional leather sheath. Both are designed for belt or rescue bag carry.
The Survival Axe is also designed as an aircraft "crash axe." incorporating the ability to rapidly cut through the aircraft skin or cut structural members and seat belts. The Survival Axe is an inexpensive rescue tool and is light enough to be carried as a personal survival tool.
The Survival Axe is now the standard cutting tool supplied with the RS-4, RS-5 and RS-6 Aircraft Rescue Sets and the RS-10 Extricator set.
