Hey all! I have a nice double bit axe and a customized SOG hawk as well a small Gerber hatchet. These do very well for me and I am not feeling as though I am lacking in the chopping category. I do want to get a traditional hawk though. Something on the lines of the Cold Steel Rifleman Hawk or even the Trail Hawk. Can you all give me some other options rather than CS. This would be for trail cleaning and shooting lane clearing and kindling making mostly. Thanks, ~kevin~
 
i own a cs trailhawk. its a solid piece of equipment. for a user i would recommend it. but if your looking for something a bit higher end, great river forge, coal creek forge are both highly HIGHLY recommended on this forum. i dont own either but im hoping to soon enough. also look at something by vector 001. he uses cs heads but does some pretty amazing stuff with handles. hopefully someone with hands on experience with these items can give you a little more help. good luck baba.
 
i have a cs rifleman hawk and it is an excellent chopper so if you are looking for cheap i recommend it
 
I have six heavy throwers from Steve at Coal creek forge and they are amazing hawks both for throwing and chopping. The balance is fantastic and when they hit my throwing tree they do so with great authority burying up to three inches deep. It doesn't surprise me that Steves throwing tree fell down and gave up ;-))

Best regards
