Howdy everybody!

I've been lurking for a short while, admiring and learning. My interests are mostly fixed blades, traditionals, and hawks. I've been wanting a hawk ever since I got a chance to throw one a couple months ago at a local event. I had thrown knives before and throwing a hawk felt very natural to me. Also, I wanted a hawk for camp use that I could carry in my day pack.

I went to a gun show (Ozark Empire Gun and Knife Show) last weekend. I was mainly looking for a hawk and possibly a utility knife. After admiring many guns I wish I could afford, I came across a table with some fine looking hawks! The young man, Devin Price, gave me a great deal. He had $70 on this one and $15 for the sleeve/sheath and I got them both for $65! It feels great in the hand, and I can't wait to throw and chop with it! I left the show very happy! :D

Now, I have a little piece of Missouri with me to remind me of my time in this beautiful state!

This is my first attempt at posting pics. I hope it works. Thanks!
 
Very nice one. I'm jealous.:mad:


And welcome to Bladeforums. Well, welcome to posting. LOL
 
Hi there Lightfoot, welcome to the hawk forum. I'll tell ya, that is a hell of a hawk you got there for an amazing price, congrats. Do you know what the steel is? Very clean looking hawk. Is it hand forged? The grinding is pretty great. I want one ;-)) How long is the head and the cutting edge?
Any chance for a pic taken of the top of the head?

Regards

Robin

Great pics, man.

Those are some seriously nice hawks. If he could just get some longer hafts. . .

I emailed him about it and he said he gets a lot of requests for longer hafts and is going to look into a source for them.
 
Thanks guys!

Robin, the head is cast, 6150 spring steel, 5.75' long. The cutting edge is approximately 1/16'. The half is 19' long.

Here's a pic from the top:
