Trench Baton in OD Green
The American Tomahawk Trench Baton is a fixed, one-piece impact tool with a notched, gear-shaped head at one end and a fully textured grip running the rest of its length. The name points back to the improvised trench clubs of the First World War, and this is a modern, factory-built take on that idea. It suits collectors of edged and impact tools and anyone building out a kit of hard-use field equipment.
Features
- Toothed Striking Head — A gear-shaped head with a ring of squared, notched teeth caps the business end of the baton.
- Bolted Head Assembly — The head is secured by a hex-socket bolt through its center, visible in the opening at the end of the head.
- Raised Collar — A thick, flat ring sits between the head and the handle, giving a clear step where the grip ends.
- Hex-Pattern Grip Texture — Raised hexagonal scales cover the handle from collar to butt, so your hand has something to bite into instead of a smooth tube.
- Lanyard Hole and Cord — The butt end is drilled through and fitted with a black cord lanyard that can loop around the wrist or tie off to gear.
- OD Green Finish — The whole baton is finished in OD green (olive drab, the muted green long used on US military equipment), which sits alongside most field kit without standing out.
- Engraved Maker's Mark — The American Tomahawk logo is engraved on the handle near the butt.
Build and Carry
American Tomahawk is a commercial maker known for tomahawks and related hand tools, and the Trench Baton follows the same plain, function-first styling. The head, collar and handle share one matte OD green finish, and the lanyard comes fitted at the butt. Laws on carrying impact weapons vary by state and city, so check local rules before carrying it outside the home.

A Proper Piece of WWI-Inspired BrutalityBeen collecting American Tomahawk Company stuff for a while now got the Vietnam Tactical Tomahawk, the MP Baton, and now this beast. The Trench Baton OD Green is exactly what it claims to be: a modern interpretation of the WWI trench clubs that soldiers used when things got ugly in the mud. The OD green powdercoat on the carbon steel head is applied evenly with no visible runs or thin spots, and the STN66 super tough nylon handle has a really satisfying sculpted texture that fills the hand nicely. At 25 ounces and 14 inches overall, the weight distribution feels intentionally front-heavy like it WANTS to swing. Compared it side by side with a Cold Steel shillelagh I have and honestly the build quality on the American Tomahawk is noticeably more refined, the finish is more consistent and the nylon handle feels more purpose-built. Only minor gripe is the lanyard cord that comes pre-installed feels kinda cheap for a $120+ piece, i replaced it with 550 paracord immediately. But that's a small thing on an otherwise outstanding impact tool.
WWI trench club aesthetic with quality carbon steel head,Front-heavy balance is ideal for striking applications,
Included lanyard cord feels undersized for the tool's weight class
