Title: first tomahawk
Post by: ErikPrice1@msn.com on May 26, 2011
Just finished my first forged tomahawk and guess what, my camera is broke hdslp. But I still needed to brag. As soon as I get a new camera I'll post some pics.

 It throws real good. Gonna start to work on the blades more. Just read a book that showed alot of designs for the blades back then. Got plenty of RR spike's to practice with. Took me about 2 Hrs to turn this one out. Need to also get a jig for making the hole for the handle.
