Is that gun blue on your Cold Steel hawks? I like that dark finish on the heads.

 

[Dirtbiker]

Yes its birtchwood casey super blue. Degrease the heads and drop them in hot hot water before you blue.

Not yet as I live in the suburbs but I'll be going out camping quite a bit this summer and they will be tagging along.

The hand forged hawks are all on 19" hafts and they feel great. The HB forge could use more length as it's much heavier than the other two.

The cold steel hawks are all on factory 22" hafts.

I've just recently been hooked on hawks too. In the last week i got a CRKT Kangee and a Cold Steel Rifleman's Hawk.

Check out my rifleman's hawk, top row, third from right. Notice anything missing...

Rifleman's hawk is great but really heavy. The pipe hawk is a good compromise between blade size, balance, and weight all while having a hammer poll.

Similar for me I got a great traditional hawk from hb forge and just ordered a shrike today. Now the waiting game begins.

I should have a RMJ Loggerhead in a day or two.

Hi Dirtbiker, Buddy,

you are totally right... hawks can get you addicted ;-)

during the last years, i got 2 CS Norse Hawks, 2 Riflemans and a Trailhawk (like that one). I throw with all of them.
Lately i got the CRKT Kangee, and that was cause i was keen on an RMJ, but didn want to sepnd so much.

After comparing, i find the CS hawks a Little bit better to use and to throw.

Congratz to your Loggerhead... awesome

Cheet, Vincent.
