Merriweather Lewis' tomahawk
« on: May 07, 2015, 03:45:02 AM »
Did you see that Cowans recently auctioned the hawk to an undisclosed buyer at an
undisclosed price?  It finally left the family after being with them since at least 1809.

Super cool. I love those pipe tomahawks! My favorite accoutrements from the late 18th/early 19th century era.
