Every hunting blade in the MKC lineup is tough enough to baton wood and perform essential campsite tasks, but we’re not satisfied with “good enough.” That’s why we’re so excited to introduce you to the newest member of the Montana Knife Company family: The Hellgate Hatchet.

Crafted with passion and designed to be the ultimate packing and hiking companion, this little beast is as handy as it is resilient. Chop wood, clear your campsite, and start fires with ease.

PVD Coated Carbon Steel Blade

The Hellgate Hatchet is made from cryogenically treated 52100 high-carbon ball-bearing steel, achieving the perfect balance of edge retention, toughness, wear resistance, and easy resharpening.

The steel is also PVD coated to a matte black finish, which minimizes rust and glare.
Hair Shaving Edge

While most hatchets are primarily designed to be swung, the Hellgate can do more than brute force. We gave it the same super sharp edge as our knife blades to make it even more useful.

If you find yourself without a knife, no problem. The Hellgate’s edge acts like a curved bladed knife, allowing you to open a chest cavity and field dress an entire animal.
Multi-Use Head

The butt of the head protrudes from the handle, giving you extra steel for a variety of tasks like digging rocks and dirt, pounding tent stakes, breaking up ice, and poking your fire.

This makes the Hellgate hatchet a do-it-all tool for any task on around the campfire or when you're in the backcountry.

Bulletproof G-10 Handle Scales

The Hellgate’s handle scales are made from the same G-10 material found on many of our knives. G-10 is famous for being strong, durable, and lightweight — unmatched by any natural handle material.

It can withstand any abuse without cracking or breaking, won’t absorb blood, and provides excellent grip, even when wet. We’ve also given the base of the handle a large knob that lets you lock in your grip when swinging the hatchet.
Exclusive MKC Kydex Sheath

Each Hellgate comes with a USA Made, custom MKC Kydex sheath.

The Hellgate Hatchet sheath comes with a single-direction snap that prevents the knife from coming out of the sheath by accident and haptic feedback when sheathing or removing the blade.
Free Sharpening For Life & Beyond

Generations® is our promise to restore your knife to its original, unmatched working condition.

MKC will clean, sharpen, repair, and even reshape your blades when necessary, as well as rewrapping handles free of charge.

While we perform all necessary sharpening and maintenance, our aim is not to return your knife to its brand new appearance. Learn more about MKC Generations Promise.

Handy Packable Hatchet

When getting this I thought it was a bit of a splurge, but it has proved quite handy camping and I look forward to continuing to use it for quite some time. It is about the size of a hammer so it stores in a number of out of the way places in my truck quite nicely. The handle is quite comfortable. The butt end of the head was smaller than I expected, but the thinness makes it more compact, light weight, and easer to swing. The downside of the weight is that it has less inertia, so you have to swing it harder then conventional hatchets.
Over all I’m thrilled I got it and pack it with me more than I expected. Also I would recommend the leather sheath; it looks pretty classy together.

Hi there,

Thank you for your review of our Hatchet! We're glad to hear that it has been a useful addition to your camping gear and that you find it easy to pack and comfortable to handle. We appreciate your feedback on the weight and size, and we're happy to hear that it hasn't deterred you from using it. Thank you for recommending the leather sheath as well - we agree, it does add a touch of class to the hatchet. Happy camping!
