wut up rats? i have thrown , cut rope and dug with my rattlehawk but hadnt tried chopping wood with it before today. i had to process a small tree that i had to cut down with my ergo badger , which i had initially gone towards for finishing the job but my hawk just asked me so nicely so i took her out to eat. i have to say im impressed, im no stranger to rats or busses so i knew it was going to do the job but ill be damned if it didnt preform well above my expectations, i would stand a large branch on its end so it was vertical and go straight down with the hawk , swinging at the connecting joint of the branch and it would cut in and keep sliding cutting it in two , it was so frickin smooth . sorry i didnt take more pics, anyone else out there surprised with their rattlehawks ability to chew up some wood? more pics are welcome:D

The beard on the rattle hawk is VICIOUS!!! Gave me half dozen stitches. I can post a pic if ya'll really wanna see.
It's by far my favorite Hawk!! It's a shot ton of fun to swing!!!

PICS PICS PICS!!! It had to happen to someone. That is one evil looking hawk! Don't feel bad. My M9 did a pretty good job on my hand. Should have had stitches too but I didn't want to wait around at the hospital.
 
Wrapped up and ready to drive to the E room.
