Hatchet "Work-it", 600 g

What is the danger

The hatchet presents risk of injury because: 1) The handle is not mechanically fastened to the head, but is attached using a red binding mass. In one case, the handle was attached to the head by a yellow synthetic resin adhesive. The head fell off the handle because of its own weight, and it could easily be detached by hand. 2) The hatchet head was made of an unsuitable material. This was not the prescribed forged steel, but a brittle coarse-grained cast material with many defects (flaws and cavities), which weaken it even more. When the hatchet is used the head can shatter or split, and flying fragments can cause serious injuries.
