Noob tomahawk?

[Stormstaff]

Ok, what's the least expensive way to start out with a hawk? Go with something like a Cold Steel Trailhawk and the mod as I learn and/or have time and resources?

Advice please. Thanks for your time.

Maybe I'll poke around my gear at home and see if I can do some horse trading for one.

I would go with the CS trailhawk its hard not to like for alot of reasons.

Defiantly a trail hawk.For around 30 beans they're very forgiving to mistreatment and cool to mod to boot.good hawkin.

Depends on what you want to use it for... throwing, chopping, hang on the wall, fighting???

More than likely, chopping & maybe try my hand at throwing.

Maybe I'll look into a Trailhawk. Sounds like the best way to start out.

Suggestions on places with good prices and fast shipping?

I still need to poke around the for sale board. I think I've got a couple of different SOG assist opening pocketknives I could try to trade off. That way my only out of pocket would be shipping.

as much as i like my trail hawk it just doesnt chop like my riflemans hawk for 10 bucks more and a bit more weight it may be more suited to your needs

The CS Norse Hawk throws well and is a good chopper also.

If your budget allows, it can be helpful to have more than one hawk...

For a thrower, I prefer the Cold Steel Frontier Hawk, or a clone of that style...

For chopping, get a Cold Steel Trail Hawk for small to medium tasks, and the Cold Steel Rifleman's Hawk for medium to big tasks...

For battle/fighting... spend $110 (this includes shipping, etc.) and get the VTAC...

That is my advice...
