The Survivalist Must-Have Multi Use Weapon

Weighing in at 2.6 lbs, this tactical multi-use weapon packs a mean punch. You can see from the angles in the images below just how effective this thing would be in the wild.

For a rather compact hand tool its features are many.  It is useful for hacking, prying, pulling and pounding.  The design features built into the tool include a hammer, nail puller, tire chain hook, wire twist for removing safety seals, ice/debris remover, axe, and pry bar.  Given all those features one can easily see its application for preppers during any kind of a SHTF event, natural or otherwise.  Imagine in the aftermath of a storm like a tornado the Trucker’s Friend could be used to pry your way out of the downfall from inside, or as a rescuer work your way into a fallen structure.  It’s also very useful for the clearing and clean up afterwards.  This tool is as good for destruction as it would be for construction.

SHTF Tool
This is the tool for worst case scenarios like a catastrophic social collapse, dirty bomb, attack, extended power grid failure, EBT card’s go down, or other event that precipitates the necessary move to Bug-Out.  Have this tool in the vehicle as part of the escape package.

Other characteristics of the Trucker’s Friend include a super user friendly handle.  It is a rubberized covering with finger grooves molded into the handle cover.  The manufacturer calls it a “shock absorbing Powergrip.”  Indeed it is.  You can get a really solid hold on this tool and as I noted when using it in a swinging or chopping action, the grip does not slip.  Some of the tools on the market today have slick plastic grips to which I have to add double-sided sticky tape in order to get a firm grip.  You don’t need that with this tool.

Also important to long term use and reliability is not only the cast alloy tool-steel blade, but the shank which has been heat treated for added strength.  The fiberglass handle then is inserted up into the shank.  The handle is non-conducting, which is a nice feature for many working applications.

The finish on the metal is a rust resistant matte black finish.  It does scratch and mar, but is not damaged in the classic sense.  It holds up well outdoors.  Rust can be easily taken off with some steel wool.  There is a leather cover available from the manufacturer, too, which I would recommend purchasing along with the tool not only for safety sake, but also to offer a measure of tool protection from the elements.

On top of all the awesome things this thing can do, it also looks scary! So if (hypothetically) you found yourself in a situation that called for self defense, it would be in your best interest to have a weapon in your hand that looks threatening in addition to being threatening. Remember, just because someone is attempting to harm you doesn't mean they're immune to being scared or intimidated themselves. They're human, after all. So having a terrifying weapon that looks like a futuristic ax will work to your advantage.

    Not a good chopper or splitter. I had to reprofile it to be ok for chopping but over all its not a bad tool.

    I saw a knife/spear head that could be attatched to various poles. Not so good for chopping but for protection with reach and speed.

    All it is. Is a modified crate axe / modified hatchet. Cute but I’ll take a decent ax and cut the Handel down by a foot and a 1 foot pry bar over that any day

    I own this. It’s smaller than it looks and as dull as a rock. Even after sharpening it I’ve found that it won’t hold an edge. Still a neat little toy.
