I have been on here before about 8 years ago but I was encouraged to come back by many of my peers. Here are a few hawks I have been making for others and something about them. Please enjoy....:)

"Heavy Ugly" in tan....all are 3/8" thick 4140 stock and have a slot cut up the middle to reduce weight and for shock mitigation. They are 14"x7.5" approx. The coating is K&G Gun Coat.

Dang Broe, where you been?

Those look pretty cool, what kind of "testing" have you put them through? Are these something you make to sell, or just for yourself?
 
VERY cool looking hawks! I'm impressed and would be interested in weight specs.


Reminder to others: requesting "how much" from a registered-user-maker skirts dangerously close to making this a sales thread in a non-sales forum.

He's right. Please don't get the thread shut down. These are real good looking axes, lets see more of them. Keep sales talk offline.

I'm going look up a Viking and discuss that CQB Hawk with him! :D
 
Sorry. Had PSD work this week and I was away from home. Thank you for all of the comments good or bad and you are welcome to email or message me with any other questions not on topic per forum rules.

They are tested on a 55 gallon steel drum after heat treat for edge and point penetration and before gun coat finishing and have been used in all types of situations. Some have been used primarily for cutting wood, some for rescue and vehicle extraction, and some for combat. There is very little change in how they were made for all of these uses and I have been making them for years. I am just not big on BS or hype and most of my work has been word of mouth. I will say I have some happy customers that have come back to me again if they wanted anything else. I have put them in the hands of marine combat units, army combat units and air combat crews and they are all happy with them in the use, deployment of the tool, and value.

Heavy Ugly- 1.65 pounds, 14"x7 1/4"x3/8"
CQB- 1.1 pounds, 11"x6 1/4"x1/4"
Climb Axe- 0.75 pounds, 12"x 6 1/2"x 5/16" (edges) (this one can be altered to meet any requirement for length, weight, and edge requirements)

What is not on this post are pictures of the baton hawks made from a tactical baton (usually ASP). There is a trademark thing and I am not getting into that on here but I can send a picture out to anyone interested.
 
Good looking hawks broe!!! I especially like Heavy Ugly and your CQB. Thanks for sharing.
