I'd totally carry a tactical pink hawk while backpacking. Then people would laugh at me. Then I'd lop their friggin heads off. Jerks.
Ok, now that's I've been a smart ass, we will probably go with the common but good steel, 440C
We talked about it and even started to go forward but it died on the vine. Right now we're doing our best to get a couple of new projects out and I doubt we will even consider this until the RC-10, clip point knives, Izula handles, Imacasa machete, stainless steel version of the RC-3, and the folder is out. In fact, anything new is off the burner until all of these projects are shipping and we have production.

440C is a great stainless for small knives, IMO.

There was a thread a ways back that revolved around this idea, but I think that Jeff decided that the interest level was only sufficient to make it a back-burner project. He later went to reveal the RAT machete project.![]()
Hey Thanks Forty I too was thinking about a HawkWould be nice Here in Maine a Machete :thumbdn: A Great Hawk:thumbup:
I don't know...I'm more of a machete guy myself! Have you tried a good quality one (read: Condor) in the woods yet? Works great actually!![]()
It's kind of a soapbox issue of mine.![]()
Forty you can Throw a hawk and Yes I played with a good MacheteI still like the Hawk :thumbup:Sorry No hard feelings
I enjoy throwing although it's been a while since I've done it. Got some Hibben throwers that work really well.
