The blade of this hatchet is made out of exceptional yasugi aogami steel. Yasugi high-carbon steel comes in three varieties: kigami, shirogami and aogami.

Nata tools are Japanese axes or hatchets, and a cutting tool unique to Japan. Nata are similar in shape to machetes, but they tend to function more like a small axe or hatchet, as their main purpose is generally to cut and split wood. Although, due to their design, they are capable of clearing brush and vines, just like a machete can. They’re very versatile, multi-purpose cutting tools.
