hi you guys here :

recently i got some Estwing axes and tomahawks , very well made tools , cool.

i really want to know that what tang shape is .

i read some reports on internet that the tang construction are I-beam , but there is no clear pic i can find out.

how about the wall thickness on I-beam of Estwings ?


thanks

The axes and tomahawks don't have I-beam construction. Estwing pry bars have I-beam construction. Those are the toughest pry bars made for their size. Nearly indestructible. I used one heavily for 15 years and finally broke it. I replaced that one 15 years ago and the new one is still going strong.

Estwing's steel hammers are also legendary for toughness. They are the industry standard for commercial carpenters doing concrete form work. I prefer wood handled hammers for finish carpentry but I'll choose the Estwing for concrete work. Very good hammers. Great reputation.
 
thank you both

i searched through the net , and got those pics:
