Title: more Hawks
Post by: KHalverson on May 29, 2020, 11:01:55 am: seems that tomahawks have been 75% of my commissions since the start of this pandemic.
most are forged from 4140 except those made from rail road spikes as requested.
here are some random pics of the last 3 months work.

about 50% comes from the scrap bin @ work.
the other 50% I purchase online.
p.m me if you'd like the suppliers name.
great prices and service.
