Rebar Tomahawk....

I was asked to show you guys this.It was forged from a piece of 3/4 inch 60 grade rebar..It hardened very nicely and took a great temper..
Any comments.
Bruce

About time you used some real steel. I like it. I can even see the pattern of the rebar on the side of the bit. Is that an Oregon Duck? Ray

Hey Bruce, glad you posted it. Very nice. Very tribal.
Really sweet. Whoever asked you to show us that 'hawk deserves a big fat kiss on his bald head.

And that person would be our own Raymond Richards
He has been trying to get me to try some rebar for a year now,And it worked great..

Hey Bruce, are those playing cards your business cards?

Pretty kewl.

Yep...I liked the Idea so we designed the black jack set in Hearts...And this with a green velvet table cover and my Price style reproductions make a awesome table display.
Ebbtide also made a box for the cards to go in that makes the deck of cards theme even more realistic.Ican open the box that looks like the cards by the way and slide out the cards and freak people out when they find out they are my business cards..
We are trying to get some poker chips with my name on them also,I think that would be just way to cool..

KewL,

Hey is that "duckbilled" Hawk?

Bruce thats soooooo cool, love the duck bill! Ive been trying some stuff in the type 60 rebar, I love it, it holds a reasonable edge, and boy what a price for steel! bought a 20' stick for $4.88 ! Do you have a premade drift, or are you doing it by some other means? Anyone know what size drift for the "average" store bought hawk handle? And where to get the drifts from?

Keep up the good work Bruce!

Mike

I am using the drift I bought from Centaur Forge..I need to find a source for store bought handlles that are curly maple and not Hickory..Anyboddy else know were to get them.
Bruce

Really kewl idea Bruce. Ya, I bet your table looks very impressive with that kind of layout. You got a derringer to put on the table?

Mike, you got riped. What size did you get? I'm kiding on the riped part, I've never bought any, it just seems to show up in the back of my truck when I leave the job.

Bruce, I think you've had that piece of rebar for at least 6 months if not longer but you never got around to using it until now. I've been trying to tell you its the steel of the future. I hear the prices are going to jump up now.....Ray

Rade Hawkins sells curly maple tomahawk handles.

Pretty classy, Bruce. Pretty Classy.

Nice work Bruce. I like the look of the duck

Great idea with the cards and poker chips. I want to see what your table looks like when you've got everything laid out the way you like, sounds great.
