No, it has nothing to do with that show. I've been interested in one for a while and watching movies like The Patriot and TV shows like Top Shot kinda pushed me over the top, plus it's cheaper than another gun. Looks like a good close quarters weapon and I think I could learn to throw it which would be a nice backyard activity.Quote:

whats rizolli and isles? o.0
i have the 'standard' SOG and the SOG short hawk. at 67 years of age, and a stroke survivor, i really hope to avoid situations where they are my primary means of SD. i just always thought that fighting hawks were cool, and better than a knife for SD.
p.s: i also have a (cheap) samurai-type sword, which i also think is cool.
I have been looking at the SOG Fast Hawk, do you like it? Have you done any throwing with it?Quote:

I like Peter LaGana’s original Vietnam Tomahawk design.
I have a SOG and several Cold Steels. My favorite is the Norse Hawk, and an Axe Gang is my next purchase. For a First I think the Norse or a Frontier hawk from CS.
this kinda reminds me of the book Hatchet that I read when I was a kid :)
If I was gonna get a Tomahawk it would be pricey even if I could get approval from the ATF I haven't seen any cruise missiles on gunbroker
+10 on the Cold Steel.
I recommend these:
Cold Steel Trail Hawk
Cold Steel Trench Hawk
Wowwww!!! That right there brought back some memories. I loved that book!! I must have read it three times!Quote:

There're quite a number of good Tomahawks out there, including some custom ones that aren't too expensive. Fort Turner's comes to mind (Theirs range between $50-120). For inexpensive, it's hard to beat Cold Steel or SOG. Cold Steel uses 1055 carbon steel & SOG uses 420 stainless steel, so it depends on ones needs. Personally, I have a SOG tactical Hawk that was coated (A dark black/grey digicam). At a total of $45, it wasn't a bad purchase (The shipping alone cost $15, so $30 is not too much to spend, I think).
The SOG Fast Hawk is pretty nice in that it's a little smaller & probably makes for a good throwing Hawk.
Good luck with your choice.
I bought a SOG Fusion battle axe and have been happy with it.
