an oldy but a goody

[Sam Salvati]

Here is my first tomahawk, forged from 1" square w1. Hickory handle, looks beat up cause i've been putting it through it's paces for a couple years now. Light and fast as any true fighting weapon should be, about or less then a pound i'd guess but it'll still chop like it should.

I really like that, it looks very user friendly. I like the traditional design and aged look it has. Cool!

How is the head attached to the handle?
Cool hawk BTW

 

[Sam Salvati]

Thanks Ed, tapered eye, then wedged.

thanks Dan!

That hawk looks all business to me. Well done!

 

[Sam Salvati]

Thanks PR, wish I had the guts to do a passaround but being my first hawk she's pretty special. I'll have some more in the works, maybe one of those.

 

[Edwood7]

Beautiful, well if you do make another one be sure to let us look at it. That is a very original looking head on that axe.

 

[Loosearrow]

That looks mean. Nice work.

That looks like a scaled down version of a headsman axe. I bet it got a mean bite :thumbup:

 

[Sam Salvati]

Stuart that is high praise coming from a bada$$ hawkmaker like yourself, thank you. I look forward to delving deeper into hawks very soon.
