3 Hawks in a box.....

[Raymond Richard]

I was planning to post these 3 earlier today but I was just getting to much glare so I decided to make me a photo box. I made it out of plywood that I had laying around, the paint I already had. Just had to buy a light bulb and a fixture for it. It actually worked! Now I've got a few things to figure out but its nice to have something in the shop set up for pictures.

Love 'em !! I had to actually look carefully to tell them apart - the heads are beautifully forged. The shapes and angles are most appealling.

Could you explain the handle setup ? They look great. I think they're wrapped but I can't quite tell. Jason.

Jason, The bottom one has a total buckskin wrap and the middle one is just half wrapped with buckskin. The top one is all curley maple except for the turkshead knots. All three were forged out of 1080 hex stock. The top one is out of 1" and the other two from 7/8" stock.

Three winners Raymond - very nice. The first one is my favorite.
