you can also spend more for the titanium if you need to get rid of

the head fits in your pocket but you have someone else carry the
handle so that way you can say you have a pocket axe

i guess you could carve your own handle while hiking or camping but
you always need a handle so i think of this as a novelty
not a terrible idea to make it easy to switch handles but a handle
typically lasts a long time
the titanium makes little sense since the head weight is a crucial
part of an axe
well it is a hatchet but klax is more catchy than klhatchet
My first concern was related to the clamps that hold the head to the handle.
They address that concern to a certain extend when they point out that
you need to tighten the clamps with the knob several times, ending with:
"Typically it will no longer loosen after about five minutes of use, but
make sure to check it anyway."
I recommend that no one stands in line with this tool while it is being
used. (Not that anyone should *ever* be standing in line with someone
using an ax)
I also recommend not using this tool while facing a body of water or a
cliff. "Splash" and/or "Oh Crap!...Clunk...Bounce...Clunk".
