A couple new belt axes

[BenR.T.]

Hey guys, I just finished up these two small axes and I thought I would share. This is my Valkyrie tomahawk design minus the spike. For the prototype I wanted to something different, so I gave it osage scales and did some Norse inspired burning on it. I think it came out pretty cool.
The second one has natural canvas micarta scales. The steel is 1/4" 4140 that I deferentially tempered. These should make a really nice woods hawk.

Let me know what you think.















Drawn back tang.

Thanks fellas!!

Played with doing fullers on this handle. It actually offers really nice grip points.
