Compact tomahawk

[tohubohu]

Hello there,
I wanted to show you this compact tomahawk:

0,2" thick O1 steel and micarta scales, 12,6" OAL, 1,5 lb.

Thanks for watching

Pretty neat looking Hawk.
Could sharpen up that curve and have a great brush cutter, arm chopper.

Looks like it'd be a whole lot of fun to use, very nice job.

I'll second the idea of sharpening the curve, kinda' like a hawk version of a Woodsman's Pal A little hook blade can work wonders when you're trying to get through a patch of wait-a-minute vines. I'm kinda surprised more of the "tactical" hawks don't have a hook. I'll chalk it up to the current trend it to visit the desert over the jungle.

Great head.
Is handle skeletonized?
I would just add a"hand hook" at the end of handle - for leverage.

This is how I imagine entrance tool.

Thanks guys,
Sharpening the curve is a good idea and thought about it when I made a simple BOB version of this model.

The Spike is supposed to serve as a ... spike and as pry bar. I finally decided to keep it simple without an edge.
The handle is not skeletonized, it only has the 2 holes for the scales. I personally and generally don´t like to remove much material from the handle.

Combinations are infinite...

The first one really intrigues me. Looks very functional.
