Mbmul175 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Well if the edge is chisel ground I would call it a light hewing hatchet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mbmul175 Posted June 21, 2016 Author Share Posted June 21, 2016 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 . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Latticino Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Looks a bit like one of these: They call it a multi-function utility bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mbmul175 Posted June 22, 2016 Author Share Posted June 22, 2016 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 Michael. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 How does it throw? I usually consider a hawk to be: A. lighter than a hatchet and B. throwable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mbmul175 Posted June 23, 2016 Author Share Posted June 23, 2016 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. Michael. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
