what do you guys think ? What is this called? I saw something similar and it was a hawk, but i dont know exactly what that is. Its an axe/hammer/crowbar, the handle is hand carved oak.

Note. it seems the black background hides some of the features

Well if the edge is chisel ground I would call it a light hewing hatchet.

The edge is convex, I finish it with files and sandpaper.

I did research about what a hawk is , this is not that. It is about 2.5lb, I'll just call it a handy tool for turning big things into smaller things .

Looks a bit like one of these:

  They call it a multi-function utility bar.

Well it chops like its no ones business, so I'm happy with it.

But I have to say that to thing looks pretty handy.

Thanks

How does it throw?   I usually consider a hawk to be: A. lighter than a hatchet and B. throwable.

Yeah i only recently made the connection between hawk and tomahawk, the handle is too short to really be able to throw it, so its no hawk.
