In response to the demand for a "prettier" primitive tomahawk, we have added this pierced heart design. The weeping heart is a Pennsylvania Deutsch hex design, found on painted chests and longrifles.
The blade edge is just over 4" in arc length, the NMLRA legal limit. It requires quick sharpening before use, to qualify for NMLRA match rules.
Made in the U.S.A. wax cast of tempered 4140 alloy steel, a few licks of a fine file, before each day's use, will keep the edge sharp.
Includes our 22" hickory Carlos Gove pattern tomahawk handle with a swell along the bottom. Sanded smooth, this handle is ready for stain or oil finishing, if desired.
Known as the Large Heart Tomahawk, it weighs about 13 ounces. The wax cast 4140 alloy steel head is made in the U.S.A. for competition throwing. It will give you good service and a long life.
Our Large Heart Tomahawk includes the tempered steel head, and the sanded unfinished 18" tapered hickory handle. Track's fine handles are made of Tennessee Hickory, in the U.S.A.
Never use a split wedge, or glue, to retain a tomahawk handle. Our tapered handle is a perfect fit, when driven in from above. It is designed to pop out, if mis-thrown, to minimize breakage. You may elect to stain, scorch, oil finish, or kerosene soak (oil temper) your handles, or you may prefer to allow them to develop a natural patina from normal use.
