Thread: Tuatahi axe project - small axe / hatchet for hunting, tramping, fishing etc

I meant to mention that this tomahawk has been in my possession for about 50 years (I do recall the day I'd saved enough pocket money to buy it) It must be on at least its 5th ot 6th handle, and this illustrates a point that the handle must be able to be either obtained or made long after the initial sale.

Also, yes I can see the point of a bearded type, but the thickness and temper of the blade then needs a lot more consideration than is normal in an "off the shelf" tool.

If you can stay close to the original brief and at the heavier end of your scale, count me in. Thanks
