Winkler Knives Hammer Combat Axe

Built for Breaching. Ready for Anything.

Originally designed for military and law enforcement, the Winkler Hammer Combat Axe brings together combat-ready engineering and field utility in one badass package. Featuring a hammer pole for impact tasks, an integrated glass breaker, and a quick-draw sheath, this tool is built to perform in the harshest environments—whether you’re breaching doors or building camp.

A combination tool developed for Military and Law Enforcement use, the WK Combat Axe is made for breaching and combat applications. The user has easy access with a fast draw carrier. An integral glass breaker extends beyond the end of the handle.

The WK Hammer Combat Axe is basically the same axe as the WK Combat Axe, but with a hammer pole rather than a spike. It is a great woodcraft or field axe or performs well as a breaching axe when hammering is part of the operation.

A partial cord wrapped upper handle is a great feature. If the handle is damaged under the head, a new cord can readily be installed. The cord is also an excellent emergency resource.

Why We Love It

This is the kind of tool you pass down. The hammer pole makes it more versatile for fieldwork, and the partial cord wrap isn’t just tactical flair—it’s replaceable and ready when you need it for emergency use. Add in Winkler’s legendary craftsmanship, and you’ve got an axe that handles everything from missions to backwoods survival.
