Review: Good hawk for the money - I am not a stranger to cold steel, I have several of their folders and machetes. I was curious about their hawks, I have never owned one until now. I paid $23 directly from desertcart as the seller. That is a great price for the hawk. It is made in Taiwan from 1055 carbon steel a good steel for this application, it won’t chip as easy, it will keep an edge fairly well and it is easy to sharpen. It does not come sharp you would need to put your edge on it. The handle is hickory not a very high grade but good based on pricing. There is no sheath included I know cold steel offers a nylon one for like $6-$9 but you can get plenty of aftermarket leather ones or you can make your own. The only downfall is that screw that supposed to keep the head in place, just take it off and dispose of it. It will damage the handle. These hawks supposed to be taken apart on the spot, just wack it up right to remove the head or wack it downward to secure it. Hawks work on friction for retention. One thing I do recommend is to file the eye of the head on the inside for any sharp edges. Sand off the clear coating on the handle, sand any Damage the screw caused the handle and cure it with linseed oil. After several coats and several days, your handle should be conditioned and weather proofed. Make sure the handle slides into the eye smoothly and all parts of the handle are touching the inside of the eye. It’s a hawk not an axe, you might be ok handling 6” branches and split/process kindlind. In a pinch you can slide the head out and use it to clean small game. In addition to an edge the other end can be used as a hammer. I do think it’s a good camping tool, it can work as a defensive tool if need. Can you throw it, you can but you are risking damaging the handle. They also sell hawk handles for like $11 in case it needs another one. I would recommend this hawk to others.
Review: Needs some work but well worth it! - I love this hawk. I can't stress that enough. Now bear in mind that when you get this you may need to do some work to it. However I feel that that little bit of work can take a 4/5 star tomahawk to a 5/5 star. That is how you get my rating. First of all the tomahawk comes assembled but you'll want to take it apart. The handle is American Hickory so it's pretty strong and dense wood. Ideal for use in the fashion it's designed for. I sanded down the shaft just a bit with 150 grit sandpaper to get the light finish they put on it off. Then I chose a black stain for the wood and let that sink in over a couple coats. Then I sealed it with boiled linseed oil. Bear in mind that the stain and the linseed are probably not going to look ideal to you eyes at first but work with it and give it time. The real finish will come with time and use. The head is the tricky part. There is a hole in the side of the head where a tension screw holds the head more firmly to the shaft. However I find that this screw is really not all that needed. I removed mine but later ran into some issues with the head becoming a bit loose. After that I put the screw back in and it fixed that right up. Unfortunately it didn't last because the head became a bit loose again after a day out at the farm hacking up brush. When using a tool that is usually made to be friction fit to the shaft, yes, this is common. This isn't a factory defect as some get their hackles raised about. I prefer now to keep the tension screw in and just make sure not to over-tighten it. It comes down to user preference. The finish in the head is next. The factory has this ugly shiny acrylic lacquer on the outside. While, yes, this does help the 1095 High Carbon Steel to not rust, the finish is not going to hold up under use. I'm just going to warn you on that. In that regard you have a couple options available to you: Cold bluing or finding another finish method. I chose to cold blue mine and it looks great. However it doesn't hold back rust as well as I had hoped in humid environments. I left the hawk in my trunk for a few days and came back to some rust spots that I had to sand down and re-blue. As such I'm looking to see if Cerakote might be a good substitute. (Just have to get that done.) I'll update when that happens. So in terms of functionality the shaft is pretty long for a hand-held axe so you will have lots of power and can easily manage two handed strikes. I've split small logs for firewood pretty easily with it. The hammer poll is great for its job and can drive anything from nails, to tent stakes, to even breaking concrete blocks. I did a lot of work this past fall working on a farm that was being cleaned out and let me tell you, I put this hawk through the ringer, and it kept right on chugging. I've had it for close to seven months and other than having to sand down some surface rust (my fault) and sharpen the blade a little it has held up extremely well and proved to be an indispensable tool for us outdoors. Anyway, this review is getting long so I'll keep this simple. This is an excellent tomahawk. Don't let some of the reviews fool you. You won't find a better hawk for less. A little work can take this handy tool for camping, hiking, or a tactical kit to a whole new level. Give it a try and you won't be let down.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great but needs extra work
*by D***. on February 21, 2026*

The edge was uneven and dull out of the box. I had to re-profile the edge. Had to reshape the handle, too. After some work, it’s a decent tomahawk. The edge retention isn’t very good, but it throws like a dream if you take an inch or two off the handle.
