Hand Forged Tomahawks
Tomahawks were carried by longhunters, scouts, militia, market hunters, backwoodsmen, or anyone else who may have found themselves in a fight. These are heavily based on my research of hundreds of originals and reflect the common size, profile, and construction of those made and used in the 18th century.
Pricing

The base price tomahawk is finished in a workman like manner. It will have hammer and file marks, as well as possible rasp or file marks on the haft. Its level of finish represents the most common found in the 18th century.
