1844 Helko Werk Germany Classic Voyager Camp Hatchet
August 17, 2018 - Comment
The Voyager, Helko’s smallest hatchet, is practical for both the up-and-coming novice or the seasoned explorer. Compact and lightweight, this handy tool is a fine fit for scouting, camping, backpacking, or yard duty. If you need a dependable hatchet that not only looks fantastic but will last a lifetime, the Voyager is an excellent choice. The hammer-head poll can be used for light hammering work, such as pounding in tent stakes. The head is buffed and polished to a highly reflective finish which reduces cutting friction and improves rust resistance.

My next will probably be the Woodworker from the Pro Series. Spent the day out there making some fire wood, clearing brush, and enjoying the outdoors!
Great compliment to other Helko products This is my third Helko product and I could not be happier! We rely on wood as our primary source of heat and use our Helko splitting axe almost daily. My wife hated the heavy hatchet we had so we decided to try this axe. I am happy to say it fits her hand well and now she is cutting the kindling again!
A beautiful piece that also delivers performance. I consider this to be a great product because it performs and also looks great.
