eggwelder Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 i`m new here, so i guess i`ll show some of my stuff. i don`t know how to make the pics smaller like you guys do. these are all Railway spike. the ones with the head left on throw really well this is antique/old crowbar. also my favourite hawk. throws very nicely and will go thru 4inch birch branch in about 3 swings. i use whatever hard wood for handles, especially for throwing, because they break far to often. industrial type mop handles take minimal shaving down to fit, especially with the round hole.

Dodge Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Welcome to IFI. Nice start, Egg. I like the one (further in you Bucket) with the hooked beak. Looks like you also got a couple knives that show promise too :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggwelder Posted January 31, 2014 Author Share Posted January 31, 2014 the hooked beak hawk was actually a 1.5 pd ball peen hammer. weighed just over a pound when it was done, about 19 oz. my first "hammer" hawk. thanks for the comments. i have a nasty habit of making knives " ping" a lot . almost 45% breakage rate. am taking a break from those till spring when my oil quench turns to liquid again.
