Title: One of my hawks
Post by: cutshurt on August 06, 2012

One of my laitest hawks made from a 24 oz ballpeen hammer head, with an Osage orange handle I carved for it and yes there was a sale on tacks :)

I call the war Hawk.

That is really impressive!  I love Osage Orange for handles, what did you use to finish it with?
