Trail Hawk Replacement Handle

[Sharp Knives 86]

So I got my CS Trail Hawk today. I really like it a lot and can't wait to customize it a little but I noticed right off the bat the head is pretty loose on the handle. In fact if you remove the screw, the head will fall off and won't stay on the handle at all. It looks like the handle may have been sanded a little too small for the eye. Anyway I was wondering are the replacement handles offered by Cold Steel worth getting or are there better options. I'm worried if I get one of the CS handles, it will be to small.

I've gotten some replacement handles from Crazy Crow Trading Post that were good. House Handle also makes hawk handles.

I just got mine in the mail today and it is also super loose. The head wobbles around. I'm thinking of just wrapping it in gorilla tape.

House handle sells 3 sizes of hawk handle - the larger head is supposed to fit CS hawks.
the Crazy Crow handles won't.
a couple loops of gorilla tape or cloth athletic tape will make the handle big enough to seat the head for throwing or general trail use while waiting for the replacement to show.

Thanks for the tip! I'm on the site now and think I'm going to try out the "oversize tomahawk" handle.

Yes I got them for my CS hawks and they were a good fit.
