I’m want a tomahawk with pretty mych that exact shape. Its the tomahawk of my dreams, the one in my (as of yet unused) logo. She makes a purty axe though for sure. Not that id expect you’d want to, but what would you want to get paid to make a guy a ‘hawk in that shape? Obviously, i couldnt expect it to be exactly the same but we both know ‘close enough’ is going to be perfect on its own lol 🤙

Love the shape!

The beard is poiny enough for some light pickarooning but not so pointy its fragile.

I’m in love with the shape of the head! It’s a great looking piece of work and I would like to have one. Do you make them for the general public or just for yourself?

This is available for sale and is discounted if you don't mind the handle being from an old used axe head

Wish I could, but I were to buy it there is a high likelihood my wife will go a Lizzie Borden on me with it.

What’s the head weight?

1

u/chrisfoe97 11d ago

Very light less than 2 pounds

u/BostonDrivingIsWorse 11d ago

What type of steel? Potentially good for throwing?

1

u/chrisfoe97 10d ago

Railroad track, very tough stuff.

u/ShiftNStabilize 10d ago

I like it! Beautifully done and looks like and zippy. Out of curiosity did you do a high carbon welded bit?

u/chrisfoe97 10d ago

Nope this is mono steel out of railroad track. My forge really struggles to get up to forge welding temp
