I went to another clubs rendezvous over the May long weekend and took part in my first hawk and knife throw. What a blast. Thinking about that, I helped another fellow with a forging demo over this past weekend (fathers day), and this is what we did. Ive seen very little to pattern it off, and kinda guessed at the construction. Imade it from 1.5 x .25 FB and welded a piece of a file in the cutting edge. I may have left it a bit too hard (temper),however I`m happy with the end result. Its seems to throw ok (from my limited experience), and Im` looking forwards to doing more... A question.... Can anybody reccomend a book/DVD etc where I can get more information on the subject of tomahawks... such as types, shapes, methods of construction, regional styles and such? .... thx...
