You will also find the right accessories to store and maintain a firefighter axe between operations, including pick guards, blade holders and handle brackets.

Firefighter Ax Types

Nearly all fire axe tools are based on two designs:

• The flathead fire axe has a flattened hammer-like back and is mainly used for chopping and prying actions. They're the best way to break through doors and windows for fast entry.
• The pickhead fireman axe, or Pulaski axe, has a pointed back that allows firefighters to cleanly punch through surfaces. This is useful for making ventilation holes and digging firebreak trenches.

Both designs make it easier to access structures and clear debris during or after a fire. They're available in many lengths, handle materials and grip designs to give you the right function and balance.
