The Keating video has some solid information. Personally, I found the production quality poor enough to interfere with the content. However, JAK's emphasis on the Tomahawk's strengths as a controlling tool for trapping and hooking are well demonstrated.
The best video currently available in my view, is not a Tomahawk specific video. The Sayoc organization is currently in the spotlight because of their consulting work on the movie, "The Hunted", featuring Tommy Lee Jones and Benecio DelToro. Their recent Sama Sama 2003 video features extensive bladework, with a large segment dedicated to the Tomahawk...and our Vietnam Tactical Tomahawk in particular.

All I would add is that as a result of this DVD, the Sayoc group may be producing a Tomahawk specific DVD at my behest. I will keep everyone posted.

Hey Finien,
I have the Comtech Tomahawk Vol. II and like it. JAK says that the techniques are based on FMA. It's about an hour long. Pretty fast paced and a lot of info, but doesn't lose you.
I didn't find the production value to be a problem on Volume II. Never checked out Volume I, which includes a section on throwing. I'll start working the 2-man drills soon. Hope this helps.

P.S. The hawks used aren't ATCs though.
