I've been kind of remiss in posting up the tomahawks that have left my shop. Here's some of 'em.

15" War Chief, sharpened inner beard, TeroTuf handles.



12" Wrecker, sharpened inner beard, Micarta handles.



The pair of them in comparison, with a Benghazi Warfighter to boot.



A pair of 12" War Chiefs with TeroTuf. They weren't going to the same customer, but I thought that made a nice shot of them. :)



A 15" Wrecker with tan Durabake and black TeroTuf.



A 12" Woodsman, sharpened inner beard, in olive drab.



A 15" Wrecker



An 18" War Chief, sharpened inner beard, in olive drab.



An 18" Woodsman.



And finally, a 15" War chief, sharpened inner beard, in black.


Whew! That's a lot of work! Still more I'll post later.
 
B-E-A-UTIFUL!!! Question, when you harden the tomahawks, do you do the entire length of the piece or just the head? Always wondered that.

Thanks, guys!

Wayne - You're the second person to ask that today. :) I've found that with the 4140 I'm using for these, the heat treatment that makes a tough cutting edge makes a tough tang, too. So the whole blank is hardened and tempered at once. Some other folks making full-tang 'hawks do differential heat treatments on them, but I can't comment on their methods or materials. Just what I do.
