Forged Spike Tomahawk (Brass Tacks)

Sold: $275

A nice medium-sized spiked tomahawk with a scraped hickory handle. The blade is hand-forged from carbon tool steel and filed to shape. The blade transitions smoothly into the teardrop eye. The sturdy, octagonal, slightly-curved tapered spike has two vertical grooves filed in at midpoint. Spike and edge are hardened, and the head is patinaed.

The haft is straight-grained hickory which has been faceted and smoothed, with a swelled grip. The haft is stained dark with a hand-rubbed oil finish. Twenty brass tack decorate the handle. The handle has been aged gently.

The head is 8’’ long, with a 2’’ edge. The spike is 2.75" long. The haft is 17’’ long.

    Architecture and award-winning museum-quality custom handmade knives, edged weapons, powder horns, tomahawks, war clubs, jewelry, metal sculpture, cribbage boards, flint and obsidian knives, Japanese swords, menorahs, and more from Tucson, Arizona artist and architect Larry Gotkin.
