CS90TH: Trail Hawk
Cold Steel

Modeled after an early frontier pattern, our Trail Hawk can do it all. It's an excellent chopper and has a functional hammer poll with a hardened face so you can drives nails, hammer in stakes, and smash or crush just about anything. Best of all it's extremely lightweight and compact so it's a cinch to tuck it under your belt or lash it to a pack or shooting bag.

Drop Forged Tomahawks

These superb tomahawks are precision drop forged from 1055 Carbon steel. Drop forging is, without doubt, the best method of manufacture for any impact weapon, particularly one with a cutting edge. During the forging process a metal ingot is heated almost white hot and then formed into shape in a series of progressive dies. The large steel dies are fixed to enormous compressed air hammers. Each die hammers the hot metal into a gradually more finished shape. The steel is kneaded and compressed into a completely homogenous mass making the grain structure uniform and minimizing gas pockets or other imperfections that can ruin the construction of a hand forged hawk. This is why most good axes, hatchets, and hammers are drop forged.

These hawks are differentially heat treated. This means that the cutting edge and hammer face is fully hardened, while the balance is left relatively soft to absorb the shock of striking blows.

Favorite!
I ordered this Hawk, for general hunting , and camping use. It is an amazing tomahawk! I found it to have too long of a handle for my liking, so I cut about 3" off the handle, and now it fits my needs perfectly. It splits small wood, chops moderately well, and the hammer end is just right for pounding stakes into the ground, or nails. I like it so well, I will be ordering another, as a gift. The only thing I might change, would be the cutting edge....I'd make it 3 1/2", then it would be "perfect"!

I had doubts but NOT anymore.
I bought one a year ago & never used it. I recently put a convex mirror edge on it. Took it out & chopped a 4"x4" hole through a half of a log, 8" thick. Had to go from both sides to get through. When i was done, it would still shave paper. There were NO nicks in the blade. Wood was super hard B-walnut. I am impressed. This would also be a absolutely devastating weapon. I like that you can choose the control & impact force just by changing your hand position on the handle. GREAT VALUE. I did have to use my Dremel tool to make the head fit the handle properly, Mine was a little crooked.

Good hawk
If you are looking for a good hawk you can make your own this is it. Mine came in need of a good sharpening. I use mine for camping and hikeing.
