Abstract

A cutting tool is disclosed for permitting a user to selectively chop and saw fibrous material. The cutting tool includes an elongate body having a first end and a second end disposed spaced from the first end. The elongate body defines a handle which is held by the user to hold the cutting tool during use thereof. The elongate body defines a slot and a channel cooperating with the slot. The slot and channel extend between the first end and the second end of the elongate body. A hatchet head is rigidly secured to the first end of the elongate body for selectively permitting chopping of the fibrous material during use of the cutting tool. A saw slidably cooperates with the channel such that in a stowed disposition of the saw, the saw is disposed within the slot and the channel. However, in an operative disposition of the saw, the saw is slidably moved relative to the channel away from the hatchet head for selectively permitting the user to saw the fibrous material.
