Or Equinox Coronado Hawk for the uninitiated.
I got one of Vec's trailhawks last week. Multicam beauty. I have used it to whack something everyday for the last week. Thursday I got home early and spent an hour and a half clearing brush on the property with it and only it. My first and biggest concern with the hawk was possible fatigue because of the shaft shape. Well, there wasn't any. While my arm was tired, I had no hot spots on my hand anywhere and my hand was not tired of gripping the hawk. This is amazing. Anyone that uses tools for a living knows that ergonomics are very important and that fatigue will set in after awhile with a poor handle shape. I was very much expecting the corners of the inside face to cause some hot spots. None what so ever. The nylon cordura stayed grippy even with a nice layer of sweat on it. I was really trying to find something about the hawk that I did not like. Honestly I can't.
If you haven't already ordered one of Vec's creations, get one.:thumbup:

I ordered one last week...6 months of waiting....I also ordered a regular trail hawk to tied me over....

I had an Egale Talon form RMJ forge but lost in the woods....
I was going to get another talon when I came across vec's hawks...I hope I am happy with it....
 
LOL, I mis-read your post. I thought you typed that you lost and RMJ forge Talon in the woods. HA HA. Wait, you did type that. WTF are you doing here typing and not out looking for it!? Give me the directions to the woods you were in so I can go look for it man!. Sheesh.
You won't be disappointed with you new EC hawk. Vec does an amazing job. And is the best hawk dealer I have dealt with, hands down. He is not shy about communicating and responds within 24 hours of getting an e-mail. I can't say that about any other hawk dealer I have done business with.

yes I lost it :( I had bought two one for me and one for my best friend going to iraq...well I made a thumb snap for my original holster (not the kind now that comes with Ryans hawks) but before he left I traded it with the best friend because his didnt have a thumb snap....

so I had it sitting over my right ass check on the waist in my friends holster while shooting...I at some time knelt to take a shot(was plinking on friends land about 1000 square acres worth) and it fell into the tall grass....that day I rewalked my path about 10 tmes....did not find it....I went every other weekend ihr ride from my house for the next 4 months...I tried metal detectors, large field magnets on wheel every thing I could think of....I have never found it ....

that was two years ago...it is probably a pile of rust by now....

it was engraved with my daughters name.....I miss that hawk...my best friend still has his it is also ingraved with my daughters name (his niece) as he is my ex brother in law...ex wife younger brother...we are still best friends...

No. I have been given too much shit from people there in the past. Not many I agree with or like over there. It is just a little to "uppity" for me. I have been known to post on FALfiles occasionally tho'...
 
Yup you gotta love them hawks from Vec and Erica

Here's a few I have... I also have an all black one on order :thumbup:
