Hi Shane1,Venice Will and all hawkmen ,
Since I last posted in this forum I have been working non stop in one state and living in another and only getting home on most weekends. I'm starting to understand how a zombie feels. I do manage to steal a few minutes during the day to look at what's going on in the world of hawks. I have 5 hawks in progress since the late fall, 2 Trail hawks, 1 Frontier, 1 Spike and 1 Poll. None of them are like their older sibblings. I'm trying to keep the design of the hawks simpler and lighter. All will have my 8 pointed star, which I have slightly modified, convex grind and will be blued. The hafts are all the original hickory with nice grain and all are fitted to the heads. I have not decided whether or not to use a thin leather piping to wrap or not.
I am continuing to modify hawks and will begin to sell some this year. First comes the appropriate membership upgrade, then I'll let my fellow hawkmen know. Right now I'm practicing at a large hospital in PA. and directing a residency program so hawktime is really scarce. so, all you hawkmen keep the work coming and I'll be joining up again soon.
