Robert Mayo Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 I often work on log and timber frame homes so i made this hawk for getting into corners and small places. Forged from wrought iron with a damascus bit from 1095&15N20 damascus leftover piece that i had in the bin. The o.a.l. is 5 1/2" with a 1 3/4" cutting edge. I think i will haft it with a piece of lilac. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nc_cooter Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 Looks like it will get the job done. Was it forged by a hand hammer or a power hammer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
