There is a guy who makes hawks in or around Oxford, Ohio. I believe he has a web site. It seems like I talked with him on the phone a while back, but I can't find any of the info I had on him. Can any of you hawk nuts help me out? I just saw some examples of his work at the last gun and knife show here in Dayton, OH. Very nice looking hawks, but I didn't like the grain on any of the handles. He also does a taper on the handles, which ends up being round (instead of an oval) at the butt. This would suck for retention for chopping, but seems like it would be very nice for throwing.
