Pātiti Unaunahi (short handled hatchet) Style This style is a contemporary interpretation of a rich traditional cultural icon. The form and shape, while modern, are achieved through the use of traditional tools and practices. The artist uses chisel and mallet, not sandpaper, to create the smooth surface and clean lines. Each piece is uniquely hand carved.

Pātiti Hongoeka B (short handled hatchet) This Pātītī (short-handled hatchet) is made in the tradition of the “trade axe.” Trade axes were a post-colonial innovation and were used both as tools and as weapons. They were desirable to Māori in that the steel heads were easier to acquire and more durable than the traditional stone axe-heads.
