Title: Two new hawks
Post by: Pat B on June 18, 2011, 12:22:00 PM

I got these two new RR spike hawks from my friend Bobby Keller. Bobby is a bladesmith and my favorite hunting knife was made by Bobby from an old file.
 Anyway here are the two hawks Bobby made for me in trade for a bow.

Pat, those are too cool!  I have two spikes standing by waiting for me to get inspired!  Your hawks just may have pushed me over the edge!

What length are the handles please?

Thanks Steve, GoO and Harris.
 Steve these handles are 19" t/t They seem a bit long to me but I will mess around with them to be sure they are OK. I told Bobby I wanted a multi-purpose tool so I could use them for throwing and as a camp ax and butchering tool.
