old lawnmowerblade head and a wrapped steel handle,head was just bolted ,me and the wife kept bendin bolts and the head would move a little,got her welded up and cross bolted, no movement, used a lot around the yard,take a file and grinder and sharpen it every other month,lasted 2 years now, got rid of my sog fast hawk,for a cheap beater,it's tough..had a few others,gave em away,I like the mad max look..

Very cool! My mind is now racing with everyday items that I could potentially turn into a hawk.
