I haven't used a hachet since I was a park Ranger, only ever used it for chopping and hammering.
I received a Gerber LMF ASEK as a gift, carried it in the field ever since. Awesome knife great for everything chopping, cutting, hammering. Nice thick heavy blade, stays very sharp with a little use of the sharpener in the sheath. Dropped in on concreat, didnt break the blade but chipped the concreat.
I carry this, a Gerber Multi tool and a Gerber MK II in the field. Had a gerber flashlight too but wasn't impressed, they should just stick to knifes.
