CRKT Elmer Roush ODR Tomahawk - 1055 Carbon Steel, 21" Overall, Burnt Tennessee Hickory Handle

A multitool in an axe, sent from the gods.

With its dual-purpose head that features a standard axe blade on one side and a spike on the other, the Odr™ chops like an axe and breaks ground like a pick. It’s a versatile tool to have on hand at camp or home, perfect for splitting wood or breaking through rocky earth.

About the Forged By War Program

In 2013, Ryan Johnson of RMJ Tactical, designer of elite, military, tactical tomahawks, approached CRKT with the news that he had been working with a few combat veterans that had returned from war with varying degrees of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

To help work through their challenges, they have been designing and forging steel into custom tools. Drawing from their experience earned in combat situations, they have been creating tools they wished they had available to them on the battlefield.

CRKT cares deeply about our returning veterans and they saw a way to give back to the community that created them. In 2016, they launched the Forged By War program.

These are mission ready tools, designed by veterans, with 10% of the CRKT net profits of the program donated to the veterans' charity of choice.

Mission ready tools that are Forged By War.

Elmer Roush of Brasstown, North Carolina designed the Odr for CRKT with a combat focused appearance. With a hot-forged head made from 1055 carbon steel, the Odr holds up to repeated use. The aggressive profile of the axe head is complemented by the spike on the back. Furthering the theme of durability is the black corrosion resistant coating and dense Tennessee hickory wood handle both of which give this tomahawk enhanced strength.
