Tomahawks
I enjoy making tomahawks because there are a great variety of variations. Most pieces are one-of-a-kind presentation hawks or smoking pipe tomahawks. All of my hawks are functional working pieces, all balanced and tested. Also see my miniature tomahawks.

Prices for throwers and spike tomahawks start at $425.00 and up. Please give me a call for pricing on a Pipe Hawk.
