What do you guys consider the best Tomahawk (defense) maker out there for the money?

[300Six]

Problem with guns is that bullets eventually run out Reasonable to me is $100-$250. Paying over $500 for something that is punched out in a machine within a few minutes and then having to wait months for it, isn't reasonable. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CguaWUBt7-k

Are you kidding? Anyone with experience, a lick of sense and a good bolt rifle can carry 250 rounds of 5.56 NATO same as lug around the weight of some sort of fearsome/fashionable knife. Knife might scare a few people and be able to open a few cans of beans but a gun can save your life well out to 500 yards.
All moot points in any case since no one has ever dared to attack n. America, and Buffalo hunters died out eons ago.

When at all possible BUY AMERICAN!!!!

 

[PocketKnifeJimmy]

I am one who surely supports buying American, and my collection of what I call my "Man Gadgets", certainly reflects that. That said, sometimes something made abroad catches my eye, and that something may just not be identically available made in the USA. But, I do personally agree with trying to buy American in most instances... Especially when the product is well made and atleast competetively priced. Nothing wrong with paying a little more for it being USA made. An example of a company that offers this, is Buck Knives. They make a very nice product that one can proudly say is U.S. made, and their pricing is reasonable

I have realized that the old phrase of "you get what you paid for", is only partially true. Most times, it likely is true... But often I see that paying more, or atleast too much more, is not for the best... or the best that is still too much overpriced. Then there are the times one buys something that is definitely fair priced for what one gets. Then, even other times, one gets a lot more than what one expected for ones money.
Too many just go with paying way more money because it's obviously going to be way much better... and that is a myth that many companies would love for you to believe.
These are all just my opinions based on my real world experiences

This is true. I prefer the Aldi copy of A1 steak sauce to real A1 steak sauce for one example.

I buy American whenever possible especially if it is something handmade. Fortunately for me there's a lot of Amish and Mennonites in this locale.

I"ll stick with RMJ. I like their designs, they are used in the real world, the company backs their products-they are friendly and true Patriots, they are tough, if you end up with buyer regret they hold their value. I own a Jenny Wren and a Shrike s13.

Does RMJ still make traditional tomahawks? The modern "tactical" stuff ain't my thang. But RMJ's traditional tomahawks are (or were) fantastic.

you'll have to check with them. Get on their facebook. Its a closed group but get on and see. I believe they do occasionally.

Evian,

I don't know a thing about Tomahawks, but major kudos for calling them "defense" instead of the T word.

Keep it up and maybe "tactical" will someday be used in it's proper context.

Even if that happens, the T Word has pretty much been ruined for me.

I'm with WJC01 for all the reasons he mentioned.
I'm partial to the Jenny Wren (hammer version) due to it's small size and ability to perform camp chores with ease.
I can wear it comfortably all day and barely notice it's there.
