Hawk head from Classic
« on: May 30, 2013, 12:54:53 pm »
I got this hawk head from Chris K. @ the classic.  Not sure if this handle is gonna be a keeper or not, but wanted to get a handle on it and start using it.  Handle is an old sledge handle I filed and scraped down to fit.  I sealed both head and handle with a mineral oil/ beeswax paste I made this morning. Thanks again for the idea Bubby.  ;) I'd like to add one of those shoulder sheaths like 4est makes for it.  This is where I'm @ so far.  Thanks for lookin, dpg

Awesome man! I have me a genuine Kevin Halverson hawk and knew for a fact I would never touch that head. Im glad you made it into a useful tool. See you in the spring my friend!

Thanks Pearly!!  The first several, and only so far, throws I taken w/ it were on target and really comfortable. I'm ready to get the sheath made and start putting it to some use. dpg

I was told by the forger it was primo steel. Is that the case you suppose?

That's a nice one Derik and a good job with the handle. I'm waiting on my Halverson Hawk to arrive this week. ;D

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

It seemed to have sharpened up pretty good Pearls.  I've yet to hit a rock with it  :o, but it cut a branch hangin in the archery range pretty good. I;ve got several good hawks, but this one is slowly becoming my favorite.  Once I get the sheath made I'm sure it will be.   ;D ;D ;D

I'm happy, dpg
