Forged Tomahawk

This axe is styled after typical early axes. The head is hand forged of steel. The edge has not been heat treated so as to sharpen quickly in the field. This was typical of most original trade type axes or tomahawks. The straight grained hardwood handle is 18" long. Head measures 6" front to back with a 3½" wide cutting edge. This is one of the best imported tomahawks I've found. It's well made and correct styling. If this handle ever breaks a standard tapered replacement will work.

Forged Bearded Axe

This axe is styled after typical early axes that came over from Europe with early immigrants. Generally considered a Northern European style but have seen in Germanic areas of America in the 16th to 18th century. The head is hand forged of steel. The edge has not been heat treated so as to sharpen quickly in the field. This was typical of most original trade type axes or tomahawks. The straight grained hardwood handle is 17" long. Head measures 6½" front to back with a 4½" wide cutting edge. This is one of the best imported forged axes I've found. It's well made and correct styling. This makes a great camp axe for general use and splitting kindling, as a boarding axe or even for a Viking impression.
