First of the cerakoted Headhunters

[J W Bensinger]

Two of the first batch of headhunters done in cerakote, for Blade Show. Forged to shape 5160, differential hardened.
And an evil little ultralight lowpro headhunter I made for myself-black micarta and forgescale finish.

Nice.

Thanks. Still haven't done one with cerakote and micarta, but it's coming. Trying to catch up on orders after Blade show.

I really like the one you made for yourself. Why the hole in the head on the other two models?

 

[J W Bensinger]

I generally put that in all of them-forgot to do it and hardened mine. It's there as a means for end user kydex tightening/tuning-just heat that spot and press something rounded into the kydex. It also works as a finger index if for some reason the hawk is used for small utility stuff with a choked-up grip.

Good hawks!
