This was my first tomahawk that I used to learn throwing. The paint is almost completly worn off, the paracord damaged and removed. Now I use it for unlocking padlocks (you stick the spike into the padlock's shackle, and twist it, many times it doesn't even destroy the lock and you can lock it again), keep it in my car at all times.
I love that you say a tomahawk is a "weapon first". I see so many videos of guys testing out tomahawks on wood. That's not what it's for! You can use it for that if you have nothing else, but it's not going to perform like a dedicated axe or hatchet, with quality steel.
Great little hawk. I use the frontier hawk and It's my favorite for sure. I have owned this hawk and it's the best full tang hawk iv held. Great video brother 👍
Great video. I would agree about tomahawks being weapons but it also depends on the design of the hawk. Something like a CRKT Nobo, will be just as effective in the field as a hatchet of a similar head weight.
This is a nice tomahawk. I like the size and weight better than the Cold Steel's. They're a bit big. The only thing that ruins it for me is the Paracord wrapped handle. I know some people like them. But, I much prefer a rubber over-mould, or handle scales mage out of a grippy material. Quite honestly, I just don't feel like maintaining that Paracord handle as it moves around, or comes undone.
@@411Outdoors I see a lot of people doing that. It looks like I could put my own handle scales on, but that's a bit of a pain. Browning made a larger version of this called the Shock N Awesome, and it came with G10 handles scales. Unfortunately, it appears to have been discontinued some time ago.
@@2104dogface Stay tuned as I have a very good related video coming out on this subject in the next few days that will be a precursor to my actual bug out bag
It's the best value out there. If you get one, make it this one. I just got mine and its a whole new level. I dig my collection, but overall this is my favorite and and its the most fun, especially to draw and throw.
Is there even one historical instance of a Native American, or anybody else for that matter, throwing their tomahawk during battle? Hollywood sure does like the idea. Pretty dumb thing to do if that is the only weapon you are left with. Just wondering.
At the end of the day, it’s just a cool skill to have. A lot of people worry about whether or not it would work and don’t never learn how to do it, and find the enjoyment in it. Yes, it would totally work against an unaware, assailant. It would end them.
Haven’t seen this video before today.
Your assessment is spot on.
I’ve wanted one for a couple of years now.
Will probably get one some day

I remember you telling me about this tomahawk. You may have been the one that talked me into it haha
Sounds like you do a lot of b&e’s lol jkjk

Thank you! 🙂👍
Great video brother.

Super cool into brother!!! Sweet piece of gear! Awesome throwing! Thanks for sharing brother!
Thanks bro! I have been wanting this hawk for so long. Wished I had 3 of them hahaha
Probably the most sleek looking tomahawk I've ever seen.
💯! I love it so much. The satisfaction of using it is immense

Thanks my bro! I need to check out that frontier hawk. I remember you telling me how much she loved it
@@411Outdoors it's so light and fast and bc of that, it chops like a beast and throws like Lazer beam

Right on my friend 💯🙂👍 thank you!!
Dang! Now I’m gonna be thinking about getting this one soon 😊I have 2 cold steel tomahawks but like you, can’t get too many!
Infinity hawks lol
Oh man almost missed this video! Awesome hawk!!!
Thanks brother! I can’t get over how great this is. I want two haha
Cannot believe I’m going to ask this…
But
How about a shootout between the ColdSteel Recon Hawk, the Estwing Hawk and the Browning Hawk?
Brother thats one of the best video ideas ive heard in awhile haha! love it

I wrap rap hockey tape around my Paracord haha! But yep I do understand

sure would love to see it without the wrap...since i dont think itll last long
can u do a video on your bug out bag ?
Most definitely 🙂👍
2nd that request

@@411Outdoors sweet, can't wait too see that. i just finished putting together a EDC tool kit for my work bag, (Maxpedition Gear Beefy pouch)
I'm sold!
🙂👍
Great review as always, it really seems to be a formidable weapon. Between this one and Cold steel Recon hawk, I wonder which is the best...
Thanks my friend. If it helps, I sold my recon hawk and keep this one by side most days haha
@@411Outdoors Completely clear, thank you.
Now I know what to take 😊
That’s a beautiful hawk! Too bad I don’t have $80 😂
I’m with you bro! I had to spend birthday money haha
