Just finished off my RMJ collection by picking up a Kestrel. It is a small hawk with a big head and is quite wicked. It is the smallest of the line and carries the best. Perfect hawk for a shoulder or underarm rig. The handle is super grippy and because of it's size it is a vert fast hawk and changes direction very well and is the quickest of the group. Picture is sheath from manufacture and a Sheathmechanic sheath. Of the three the Talon is my favorite then the Kestrel then the Shrike.

That sure Is an Awesome Trio ! Top of the Line Tactical Hawk's Woo-Wee there "Beautiful", Nice Collection ! Thank's for sharing the picture's,
 
Even for it's smaller handle on the Kestrel that beard could do some serious damage.
 
very nice collection Joe. RMJ did have a crash axe at one time with a hammer poll so you will have to track that one down too;)

I threw the Talon when I first got it and once you get used to it it is a decent thrower very powerful hawk but they do not throw as good as yours:D Would love to see a rendition by you

Picked up all of these on the secondary market. Have orders in with RMJ but these came along before the orders where filled so I picked them up. I already have people that want the ones I have ordered so I will let them ride
 
VERY nice, I have a talon and the shrike has been on order 6 or so weeks, actually 7 come to think of it. Should be home about the same time I get home. Cant wait. Have lots of goodies in boxes waiting for me. Rat RC6, ZT0350, RTAK2, a few surefires, a few LRPKs 2 Spikes uppers (one 5.56 the other 22lr). Gonna be like Christmas. Its my daughter I miss the most.

Still... that is a SEXY photo.

Is there a reason why you prefer the Kestrel over the Shrike?

I am sure there is a certain asthetic preference but although the Shrike is an impresive piece and would probale make the better all around hawk it feels like more of a prouduction model than the others. I like the carry ability of the Kestral and the power and reach of the Talon.
