CS Plainsman Hawk

[Bors]

I picked this up a number of years ago. Never really like the short handle it came with so I cut down a Hickory sledge hammer handle yesterday and treated with some linseed oil. Added a 1/4" rollpin to keep it in place.

Head....Cold Steel Plainsman Hawk drop forged 5150 (if I remember correctly) steel
Handle length 31"
Weight 32.750 oz

Much better :thumbup:

They discontinued the Battle Axe too. Go figure.

the plainsman does in fact have a hardened hammering surface, it is just ground flush instead of the extended version on the rifleman. everything else is the same though.
