The Cold Steel Trail
Hawk is made by the America Tomahawk Company. It has a
head that is 6 1/2” and weighs just 1.34 lbs. The head itself is
made in Taiwan but comes with a 22” American Hickory handle. These
hickory handles can easily be replaced. After removing the set screw,
a new handle is simply dropped into place. The handle is held into
place using centrifugal force.
Many people are no stranger
when it comes to Cold Steel and their products. If you are not
familiar with their product their product catalog comes with a DVD
that expresses just how confident the CEO of Cold Steel is of
his products. They brutally abuse each product line to make sure that
consumers know that they can trust anything Cold Steel makes.
Their tomahawks are no exception. If it bears the Cold Steel name,
it was meant to be used!
Tomahawks are increasing in popularity. They can be thrown for hours of fun. They are durable enough for normal camping requirements (Chopping, splitting wood and finishing work). They are also traditionally lighter than many camping axes/hatchets so they make a good choice for hiking and Bug Out Bags. Some tomahawks, like the trail hawk, come with a “hammer head” that is sturdy enough for driving tent stakes and other “bashing/hammering” needs.
