Title: Finished Hawk
Post by: mullet on April 05, 2020, 09:32:22 am

I finished this up yesterday. It was pounded out of a rock hammer. I've got two more in the works from Ball Peen hammers and making a handle for the Rasp Tomahawk.

Very cool hawk, Eddie. You are really getting into this forgery stuff.   (f)

I like it Eddie, that spike looks killer (literally). It also has a very traditional look to it and it would be comfortable in that French and Indian war time period for sure.

Thanks, guys. I'm finding out the cleanup work is more time consuming then all of the pounding.

Nice work, the prettying up is more work than the getting ready, for sure!
