Common questions
Do I hit it with a hammer?
Yes. The stacked leather handle with three rivets is built for short taps from a hammer on the spine. Wear eye protection.
Is the blade 4-1/4" or 4-1/2"?
Hyde's catalog says 4-1/4". The listing title says 4-1/2".
What steel is it?
Hyde does not say.
Can I use an old chisel instead?
A chisel can chip under blows, and its handle is not built for them. The hacking knife takes the strikes.
