The CRKT 2727 Chogan transforms traditional tomahawk design into a modern tactical tool that excels in outdoor applications, emergency preparedness, and bushcraft scenarios. This compact axe delivers exceptional cutting power and versatility in a package engineered for both utility work and tactical applications.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard camp axes that prioritize weight over functionality, the Chogan integrates a hammer poll opposite the cutting edge for maximum utility in a single tool. The 1055 carbon steel head maintains a sharp edge longer than softer steels while providing the toughness needed for heavy-duty chopping tasks. At 13.19 inches overall, it strikes the optimal balance between portability and leverage that larger axes cannot match.
Key Features
- 3.16-inch 1055 carbon steel blade with superior edge retention and impact resistance
- Integrated hammer poll for driving stakes, breaking glass, and demolition tasks
- Orange glass-reinforced nylon (GRN) handle provides secure grip in wet conditions
- 13.19-inch overall length delivers optimal swing dynamics for one-handed operation
- Full tang construction ensures blade-to-handle integrity under heavy use
- Compact profile fits standard tactical packs and vehicle storage
- Tennessee Hickory handle option available for traditional wood preference
Field testing demonstrates the Chogan's effectiveness across multiple scenarios from processing firewood to breaching operations. The carbon steel head cuts through hardwood efficiently while the hammer poll drives tent stakes and breaks ice with equal effectiveness. Law enforcement and military personnel appreciate its utility for vehicle extrication and barrier removal. The orange handle ensures visibility during low-light operations and prevents loss in outdoor environments.
