Home Forums Gear Free Classifieds Early Bird Special -Josh Clarke "Trail Boss" Tomahawks FS

]Well. the Robins have arrived down this way already and spring is just around the corner. That means a new season of trail clearing, camping and general axe work outdoors. To that end, I looked over the blades I have on hand from Josh and came up with this "Early Bird" special.

The "hawks I have on hand will be the last I will be receiving as this was a limited run and Josh is busy making knives for the rest of this year. I am down the the last few of these-now is the time to grab one

These are Josh Clarke's recently released "Trail Boss" Tomahawks. These hammer polled polled Tomahawks have been several years in the making after Josh received constant requests for a high quality light weight Camp and trail style Tomahawk..

These Hawks have a 14 ounce head that is hand forged in Josh's shop from 5160 spring steel. They are heat treated to 55 Rockwell hardness , then nicely polished and blackened . They are then ground and sharpened with a razor sharp edge.

The total weight is 21 ounces is 16 inches long.

The head is 5.5 inches. long with a 3.25 inch long cutting edge. This hawk is fast , light and powerful with great striking control. The nearly 1 pound head weight combined with the 16 inch handle provides enough power and blade speed for the head to equal a small hatchet or axe such as Josh's Riflemans axes. The poll is prominent enough for pounding tent stakes etc and yet has been polished with rounded edges for use in flaying hides off of game animals. etc.

The handle is hand hewn from premium grade US Hickory and individually fitted to each Hawk head. They are hand sanded and torched , then given six coats of pure Tung oil .The resulting finish is smooth but still grippy. The Hawks come with one of Josh's hand sewn Vegetable tanned leather masks (sample shown in the last pic on a Riflemans axe}

NOTE- In the pics, the light washes out the Broadsword marking ion the blade but rest assured they are all deeply marked with it.

Retail on these with edge mask is normally $139 .

The sale special price while these last is $105 Plus $10 shipping in CONUS. As part of the "Early Bird" Special Special, I will include an 8 inch Walnut handled Alumina Zirconia Ceramic Sharpening rod (see last pic below) at no extra charge.

Any form of payment is fine, but PayPal is preferred.
