Gorgeous Winkler! Love the ZT9 in the back too.
 
Finished my first hawk today. Forged from 2 inch round 4140, head measures 8-3/4"x3" at the widest points. Handle is hickory. Hope you like it.

Howdy all!

Long time lurker. I just recently cleaned and rehung my first axe. Found a True Temper Kelly Perfect 3.5lb Michigan pattern head with bevels. Hung her on a 36" hickory handle from House Handles and coated in BLO. The ridges in the eye were a bear, but the head is on good and tight. She swings and fells like a charm.

Hey, it was an old take down dry wall/carpenters hatchet I got for the price of a packet of cig's. It had black paint on it originally, so I had to grind that off then leave it in the rain (not hard in England lol) for a few weeks to rust up to get that old look. Then I reground the edge and gave it a polish and cleaned up the handle.


 

Just hung a handle on this plum today. 16" formed from an old 19" house axe handle. Feels really great like an extension of my hand
 
Got bored so I decided to reprofile my 2Hawks Longhunter today. It shaves hair and bites DEEP into green wood.

Mirror polished convex is so pretty!








I love this Tomahawk.
 
my H&B forge ship builders custom, i have a second one on order.
