Could be a good throwing hachet.
At that price, and considering it also comes with a saw, it's doubtful it's properly balanced for throwing...
It doesn't cost money to balance a hatchet properly if that is the intent. All it takes is the desire to do it right. You only have to design it right ONE TIME then it is only a matter of copying.
Well, having worked at a manufacturer level, I can assure you that a manufacturer isn't going to invest the time and expense to do something if it's not going to pay dividends. At $13 a pop, these probably aren't going to do that...
I've been CEO of two corporations, one of which was in the design and product engineering end of the field. If someone wants to produce a hatchet with built in saw that also throws well for $13, it may occur:
- purely by accidental happenstance.
- by simply copying an existing well designed hatchet already made (something the chinese do every well).
- by manufacturing overseas with cheap labor.
- by the use of low cost materials.
