What is the most expensive hawk you have bought or sold? What is the most expensive hawk you have that your not scared to use?
 
Most expensive would have to be the custom Iroquois Hawk I had made by Ft Turner to be a bit bigger than their standard model.

And it wasn't really expensive at all really.

I do use it. A lot. It's got a nice thin blade but it is very tough.

I've got an expensive custom pipe hawk made by Mark Williams. I designed it from the ground up with him and purchased it with money my grandmother left me when she passed away as a way to remember her. She always liked any time I designed something. It's the pipe hawk in this thread:

Nice Fort Turner Iroqouis Hawk Wolf ! I sure like the Work you did on the Handle, Thank's for sharing the picture of that Beauty,

I guess my most Expensive Hawk I have now would be my Coal Creek Forge Custom made Vietnam Hawk and I use It quite often but when I do I change Handle's from Curly Maple to Hickory, My other Custom from Coal Creek Forge was my next most Expensive Hawk and It was the Roger's Ranger I Sold to you BladeMinister,

Here's my Vietnan Hawk,

Thanks for the kind words. It's 6AL4V Ti. It's a bit heavy but It works great for the work I do with it. It don't throw worth a crap. LOL! not even... It is surprising what a great Hawk Head that SOG is. Too bad they did and still do have the handle all wrong.:mad:



:)
 
Mine is also a RMJ, but it has gone thru a bit a metal and some wood. They are tools in my eyes.

My most expensive would have to be my Swamp Rat crash axe.

Been thrown, used to chop some wood, beat the heel out of a 55 gal drum and is non the worse for wear.
 
Hey SnakeDoc, That Swamp Rat Crash Axe Is Nice ! And I like your collection of Knive's, Looking Good, Thank's for sharing the picture,

Real Nice RMJ Spoolup, And a Great Tactical Combo picture to boot ! I like that RMJ cuz It has that Insulated Handle "For Taking The Power Out, If Need Be !" But If and when I get my First RMJ I'm going with the RMJ Eagle Talon, The Shrike can come latter,

I changed Handle's on my Custom Vietnam from a 16 3/6" Curly Maple to a 19" Hickory and It made a Big difference In Balance & Cutting Power, I think It even Look's Better there's something about that Gun Metal Blue Finish and the Lighter colored Hickory Handle that just Look Good Together ! And I know this Hickory Handle Is Stronger/A Better Hard Wood Haft,

You made a Great Choice on that one SavagesicSlayer ! I dont think there Is a Better Roger's Ranger made at any Price than the Fort Turner Roger's Ranger ! And I know The Fort Turner has the Best Cutting Edge for Chopping Meat & Bone and Wood, And no other Hawk maker that I've seen even come's close to the Edge's Dana put's on his Hawk's ! :thumbup: :cool:
