#T208 Custom-Tomahawk, Hand-forged Hammer Poll Hawk
Custom-Tomahawk - Hammer Poll Hawk
This is a brand new, original, historically influenced, hand-forged custom-tomahawk that I forged in my blacksmith shop, The North River Forge. I specialize in hand-forged reproductions of the 18th and 19th centuries. They have an authenticity rarely found in other maker's work. Each piece is unique.
Dimensions: Head overall 7 1/8" - Cutting edge 2 3/8" wide.
Haft: Ash, 18 5/8" long. Decorated with a partial rawhide wrap and brass tacks.
Construction: Traditional 18th. century construction. Head is hand-forged from 1018 steel with a piece of high carbon 1095 steel welded for the cutting edge.
Finish: Aged finish.
Special Features: File work on the sides of the blade. Hexagon hammer poll. Leather sheath.
This hammer poll tomahawk is stamped with my maker's mark NR.
Great for re-enactors or collectors who crave tradition. Hand-forged in the traditions of long ago. It is a reminder of an era past. A very nice reproduction custom-tomahawk that will take and keep a good edge. It has never been carried or used. Functional as well as beautiful. A classic 18th century design.
