Title: New handmade tomahawk
Post by: HickoryBill on April 04, 2011, 10:36:31 pm
I finished up this tomahawk this evening. The head is 4140 steel. Hand forged from solid stock. The head was folded and forge welded. I left the head rough and polished the heck out of it, I wanted a primitive look. The handle is a scrap piece of Osage. Now I just gotta get back into practice throwing a "hawk.  Thanks for looking.
