The product, in the report: HART 14-inch Forged Steel Hatchet with Face Cutouts, New Condition
I purchased a hart brand hatchet wedge hybrid that was advertised as forged steel and when used as a wedge and struck with a small handheld sledge it shattered pieces off so quickly and sharp that a piece despite being only 2mm around went several inches into my calf causing blood loss around a cup every 15-30 seconds resulting in having to tourniquet the leg and go to the hospital if it was forged steel as it claims it would have simply deformed long before it shattered as dangerously as it did unless in extreme temps and if it hadnt claimed to be forged steel one I never would of purchased but also I would have known that it was cast metal as it behaves like then I would have known that striking it with a hammer wouldnt be safe to begin with
