Comments: This is a fantastic Fully-Integral Hatchet made by knife-making legend, former AKI member and long time Guild Member Billy Mace Imel. Although deceptively simple, this little beauty is a clinic in precision knife making.

It's also the first fully Integral Hatchet we've seen from any maker in years and years!

As most serious collectors know, the satin finish is really the Waterloo of many knife makers, because unlike a mirror finish, the satin version shows every conceivable flaw or dip in the surface finish of a knife.

We absolutely love this amazing piece so please someone buy it before I have to add it to my collection! A hard to come by gem from a master's work bench.
