And vaughan hatchet,quality wise gow does it compare to crkt,cold steel and condor tomagawks,might found one but is same price as cs tomahawk,whats a better buy,am looking for something that can be used for both utility,buchcraft and if need defense
Take a look at the CRKT Berserker Axe.
It will have a more secure handle connection than most Cold Steel Hawks, has 1055 steel like the CS hawks, has a functional hammer poll and the bearded "Viking style" bit will be very versatile for bushcraft and self defense.
The Vaughan rigging hatchet will have 1080 steel with a likely better edge retention than the 1055, on the other hand the CRKT Berserker will be a bit more versatile.
The Berserker has more of a weapon look, so if that is of a concern, go with the Vaughan with its plain tool appearance.
Both the Vaughan and that CRKT are likely to have a more secure and consistent handle attachment than the Cold Steel Hawks.
The Cold Steel Pipe Hawk, Spike Hawk or even the slightly heavier Norse Hawk will be lighter and faster than either the CRKT or the Vaughan, so they would be a bit more suited for tactical use.
The CRKT is a hawk with a slip fit handle, the Vaughan has a wedged axe attachment.
