A stainless nata (hatchet) made from premium DSR-1K6 cutlery steel, hardened to HRC58 for a tough, keen edge with excellent rust resistance. It suits gardening work such as flower arranging, as well as compact craft tasks that call for real cutting power.
For safety, the handle carries a wrist strap. A nata relies on a certain weight for its cutting performance, so a slip of the hand can cause injury — an issue that has come up in forestry volunteer work, where more elderly volunteers are now taking part. The strap helps keep the tool secure in use.
