it will drive you nuts trying to figure out whats next,had two wood handle cold steel tomahawks ,they were fun to mod now i have been searching for a smaller self defense style like a ontario rd series in the 100.00 to 200.00 range not much to choose from unless you take a big step up,money wise,then i go and watch a you tube video of some guy busting cinder blocks with a cold steel trench hawk,looks tough,modify it with a shorter handle maybe.would be cheaper on the wallet.
