The purpose of this thread is to discuss anything and everything relating to tomahawks.
I am completely new to them and wish to learn more. I'm in the process of getting a couple cold steel spike hawks via group buy. (Thanks to OneBadV8 and Kinnards80 for setting it up!)
My first question is about sharpening the bottom side of the blade as seen in the second hawk from the left in this picture of some nice hawks owned by Fireaxes.
Other than the fact that it just looks cool, I can see how it would make it more effective hooking and pulling a limb or neck in a combat situation. Is there any downside to doing this? Could it have any affect on how well a hawk throws?
I have lots of other questions, but I'll start with this for now.
