a la custom Kenny Rowe. As our Hawks are hand forged, there is some variation in dimension from Hawk to Hawk, so this leather project had to go to the best leatherman in the biz.

Kenny has the design right and it works. We tested them on several Spike and L.I. Hawks. Some verrrrrrrrrrrry tight, some snug, some a shade loose, but they will NOT fall off, period.

If you have already ordered a Hawk from us, you will be getting yours from our first production run, shipped to you via UPS.

It WILL fit. If you have any problems getting it on, call us and we'll work with you on getting it right.

Kenny is underway and producing several hundred right now. I expect that we will be getting our first batch right around Blade Show, June 8th-10th. Previously ordered Hawks will have priority on slip covers to new orders.

Thank God their arriving soon. Almost,accidently, cut my arm off carrying my light infantryman hawk on my belt "last of the mohicans" style.

...know the feeling bud!!! I'm surprised that Mel did not suffer the same misfortune, as he carried the Hawk that way in "The Patriot".

I original thought about carrying it Mel/Patriot style. But my fear was if i bent forward, I'd be singing soprano the rest of my natural life!!!!!

If you added a loop or grommet to the underside of the slip cover you could tie to a belt loop or belt. That way you could carry the hawk in the belt but not have to find someplace to stow the cover when you're using it; you could just let it hang 'til you're done.

Just an idear.
 
If you think the slip covers are nice, wait until you see the soon to be revealed, optional Kenny Rowe Custom Leather carry system!!!

Canoe style full leather body, retention strap/strap, grommeted perimeter for LCE/LBE lashing (per request of the Rangers who want to carry it), and removable shoulder strap.

We need to combine the elements of sound design, period look and materials, solid construction, and modern functionality. I think we nailed it for a carry system on this particular Tomahawk offering from ATC.

We expect to have prototypes posted here before Blade Show. Pricing will be posted as well.

We should have the majority of them by the Blade Show, June 8th. If we can get them out the door before Blade, we will. Otherwise, right after.

Any idea of price yet? And what are the measurements? I have a custom hawk and would like some sort of sheath to cover it with. I'm wondering if these will be compatible.
 
Our custom leather slip covers are made specifically for our Tomahawk models by Kenny Rowe.....can't vouch for their ability to fit your Hawk, but give him a call for a custom job if you like! 870-777-8216! Tell him we sent ya'!
