beachmaster Posted February 9, 2015 Report Posted February 9, 2015 I LOVE twin hawks products! I few years ago I bought their trapper single bit hatchet from the makers brother at a preppers convention in Nashville (that was AWESOME btw) (Along with quite a few knives) I thought that i would never get rid of it, but sold it today for THIS http://www.nepalkhukurihouse.com/435/18-Inch-3-Chiras-Yak-Leather-Sheath-Kukri.php
blue109 Posted February 9, 2015 Report Posted February 9, 2015 that's hawt! better see it in the blade topic when it shows up! I totally almost bought a cold steel San mai khuk on Friday, but went with a tanto instead.
beachmaster Posted February 9, 2015 Report Posted February 9, 2015 Oh it will be going on there for sure!
Magwa Posted February 10, 2015 Author Report Posted February 10, 2015 How do you bash skulls or drive a tent peg with that thing lol ....
beachmaster Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 Well... I dont think that I would use the khuk to bash skulls. With the khuk I like the alternative;-) I dont want to derail anyone here, when I get this bad boy, I will give yall an ear full! Whether you want it or not ;-) Back on the topic of twin hawks, I LOVE this company. And i heard someone on here talking about the trapper hatchet. Since I owned one, let me tell you... GET IT to be honest, I sold mine this weekend, and if I knew that there was any interest here I would have let yall know. But I have a secret coming in that allowed me to sell it, dont worry ;-) If you want a nice small axe, but $ is a little cheap, a more affordable handmade option is ragweed forge. He is worth checking out, and is a great guy. He is also the guy to go to if you want a Mora. They are Viking style, but serve the same purpose:-)

I've been wanting one for around camp for awhile. Never seen any like that!
Magwa Posted February 10, 2015 Author Report Posted February 10, 2015 For bashing skulls here are the 3 best options ... LOL
planeflyer21 Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 How do you bash skulls or drive a tent peg with that thing lol .... With the pommel on the handle (of the original)...or (for skull only) with the spine of the 1/4" blade. Those little Gurkhas know a thing or two about skull bashing.
beachmaster Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 I got the kukri! It came from Nepal in two business days!? I guess I will have to post some info... where is the blade section?
Robocop1051 Posted May 25, 2015 Report Posted May 25, 2015 I've been looking at hawks recently. 2hawks site is down at the moment. I want a hawk with a hammer on the back end. I looked at the RMJ hawks, but they're way out of my price range. I read that the CRKT Woods Chogan was designed by Ryan Johnson of RMJ. It has about 99% of what I'm looking for. A Colorado blacksmith is dabbling in hawks and axes now. His company, Dark Timber Knives, is supposedly releasing their first model this summer.
GRA Posted May 25, 2015 Report Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) Ok folks if you are in the market for a awesome hawk for throwing, fighting, camping whatever this is the place to get them I have one of his hawks and it is the finest i have ever used or had ... not cheap but will last a lifetime.... the model I have is the {long Hunter} http://www.2hawks.net/tomahawks/ P.S. he offers a 10 % military discount and he makes them for our brothers who are in harms way..... Finally a better quality and affordable hawk from a US hawk maker. Much, Much better than those attempts that come out of India, Pakistan, and China. <thumbsup> Edited May 25, 2015 by GRA
Robocop1051 Posted May 25, 2015 Report Posted May 25, 2015 I'm very tempted to get the 2hawks LongHunter 'hawk. The price is on point for me and the design is similar to what I was looking for. The CRKT Chogan is even more affordable and has nearly the same attractive features. It's a bit bigger than the 2hawk version, but not too much bigger.
Robocop1051 Posted May 25, 2015 Report Posted May 25, 2015 I'm still holding out to see what Dark Timber makes. If his axe is anywhere near the price of his knives, I may get pushed away again... but damn his stuff looks good.
.308LiteHunter Posted May 25, 2015 Report Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) http://www.north-river-custom-knives.com/custom-tomahawks.html He makes some beautiful hawks. Out of my price range though. Edited May 25, 2015 by .308LiteHunter

I have to agree that both look great but the Longhunter lakes the field on this one. Price is very reasonable for such items that are quality made these days.

Price is very reasonable for such items that are quality made these days. I'm with you on this one. I may have to "back burner" the idea of a tomahawk for a bit. Having newborn twins and a 2yo eats the budget. Don't know if I can justify a 2hawk right now.
shepp Posted May 25, 2015 Report Posted May 25, 2015 Having newborn twins and a 2yo eats the budget.. Literally
GRA Posted May 25, 2015 Report Posted May 25, 2015 By all means ... Congrats on the twins ... <thumbsup>
