Mariano, That is a very nice rustic axe/ tomahawk. The series of pictures makes a good story of its making. I hope I can make a sugestion as one smith to another. Your series of pictures shows your cutoff hardy in place throughout your forging. That may be handy to have it there, but if you change position, or move a bit you will be mashing, or missing a finger or two. May I suggest removing it when you're done using it. Might save a nasty wound that would slow down your good work. Martin Brandt
