So i need a tool that will work for light duty chopping but will stand up to heavy prying and hammering. I was looking at the cooldsteel trailhawk but i read some posts that said they weren't to good for the prying part and maybe not even good for hammering. So I'm looking for someone who has experience with a specific tool( brand, model any info you can give me). I'm hoping not to need some type of full sized ax but i understand I might be asking a lot of something more compact. Thanks for any help guys

I'm sure this question had been asked before and i tried searching but didn't find anything. If thee is a similar thread and you could provide a link that would be equally awesome.
 
Heavy prying and hammering, as well as chopping?
You might be better off carrying a separate prybar.
Otherwise, here's a not-so-compact tool that should do the job.
