A pair of miniature tomahawks based on a
pair of the owner’s full-sized tomahawks.
The hafts are curly maple, and the heads
are of steel. Both miniatures were reworked
from matching steel castings.
The pipe tomahawk has a brass-formed
mouthpiece and brass trim around the upper grip
and cap, The spike is ground from the point of
a nail. And of course, it is smokable. A heart
is acid-etched into the blade on each side.

head is 3.5” long, and the haft is
9” long.
The spiked hawk has a carved
and incised curly maple handle. The spike was
hand-filed and ground out of steel flat stock.
