Man, that's a sleek and effective looking tomahawk. I think you made a great choice in the blackened handle and the leatherwork just adds to the overall look. Fantastic job and thanks for sharing your skills with us.

Dude. This was hands down the cleanest, most enjoyable-visually and audibly-forging video I’ve ever seen. Plus, the end product was great!
I am in no way a metalworker but I’m fascinated by it all and you’ve got a new subscriber.
Cheers!
Also, I hope to see more content soon.
☺️☺️☺️🙏🙏🙏 wow! That was a definite boost! Thank you so much! And thanks for subscribing!
I’ve got two in post editing right now. Just been so busy with work and helping a buddy build his house. But hopefully I’ll get one out in the next few weeks.
beautiful job. looks great.
Thank you!!
The music you chose for this is top shelf.
😁🙏 awesome thank you!
@@TheHiddenHomestead i agree, could you post the names of it?
@@thomas.thomas hhhhmm🤔 I can’t remember them off the top of my head. They were downloaded from the CZcams creator studio. I’ll be editing another video here soon. So when I do I’ll open this one up and check to see what the names were
@@TheHiddenHomestead if they are from the CZcams creator studio i might even find them myself, thanks
@@thomas.thomas well let me know. If not I’ll take a look
Really nice man! Thank you for the video!
Hey thank you!!
Dude that was awesome!!! Love the handle plus the design of it looks amazing.👍🏼🥃💯
Thanks man!! 👍👍
I love hawks and you did a great job!)) I am hoping to do one someday myself:)
Thank you!! And awesome! Good luck with it and have fun.
Awesome job. Your hawk is beautiful!
Thank you very much!
Great job! Realy!
Thank you!!
Epic. Looking forward to more videos good sir. Godspeed.
🙏🙏🙏👌👌 thank you sir!
Beautiful work it’s as cool as the other side of your pillow.
Haha thank you!
To quote Doug Marcaida, "It will kill" amazing looking hawk btw and good choice of music, very relaxed kind of "last of us" feel to it.
Awesome thank you!!
Trivia: Marcaida's catch-phrase is actually ..."it will k.e.a.l", with keal being an acronym for "Keep Everyone ALive". He trains to be deadly NOT to hurt people, but rather to protect those who can't defend themselves. He will use his skills to help keep others alive!
@@jonahjones8140 oh, that’s why he says it like that. Cool, I never knew 🙏🏻
Great work brother... Love the way you make
😁thank you!!
Awesome informative Video experience Y'alls God Bless Ya Prayers 🙏
Thank you!!
Excelente video!!!
Increíble el diseño de la hacha
Me gustó mucho 👍👍
Felicidades!!!
😃😃 thank you!!
this was a beautiful build, glad i subscribed to your channel
Thank you. And thank very much for subscribing!
I like your handiwork and the background music. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇦🇺
Thank you very much!!
Amazing! Great video!
Thank you!!
Nice. Great to look at. Problem with the steel is micro fractures. Never know whats in it. Kind of like old saw blades etc.
Appreciate it! And yea I know. Thanks for the heads up though.
This was a good job, very nice, congratulations from Austria
Hey thank you!!
What a beautiful tomahawk!
Thank you!
Great work brother!
Thank you!!
Usually thumbnails are deceptive, but I knew this one won't be. Immediately became a fan the moment I saw San Mai technique. Could not figure out if you etched it or not, but that leather wrap is beautiful. More power to you Sir
Thank you very much!! I did etch it. The video that I took of the process was corrupted for some reason and I wasn’t able to use it in the full video. But it was the same process that I used on the antler handle knife video if you’ve seen that one. It was a copper etch so it gave the metal a copper patina.
That is one of the cleanest tomahawks I’ve seen! Well done sir. Well done. I’d buy one from you!
Thank you very much!! Well if I could get the time I’m thinking about making a few and putting them on our online store
I hope you find free time for make a new Tomahawks and ı wish to buy one of them.Have good time.Thanks for information..God be with you.
Now that’s a proper fighting axe.
😁👌
Wow. You are a true artist.
Well thank you very much!
@@TheHiddenHomestead To take something rusty, forgotten, and (in most people's eyes) useless and turn it into something that is both beautiful and functional is something special. I'm jealous.
@@brushylake4606 I appreciate the very kind words.
That thing looks soooo sick
😁🤘 thanks!!
Beautiful work..
Thank you very much!!
Sir, this is absolutely beautiful.
Awesome. Thanks man!!
I don't want a "hawk" but, what i do want is...the skill that only experience brings to do that kinda work.
Good job man.
Thanks.
Wow! Thank you very much!! ☺️
Really nice I wish I could buy it
My favorite type of tool/weapon is a tomahawk and the one you made is absolutely beautiful like I want one type of beautiful lol
Thank you very much!! I do make and sell them but only when i have time to get into the workshop. I’m helping a buddy build his house though so workshop time is an extremely rare commodity this year.
That is so beautiful. Watching a Masters at work has always amazed me, admiration 👍.
Wow. Thank you very much!
great work
Thank you!
Great skills !!!
I watched the video again that is an awesome job on the tomahawk !!!!
Thank you very much! I’m glad you enjoyed.
You’ve honed your craft, it’s beautiful to see, much love
Well I wouldn’t go that far. But thank you very very much!!! 🙏🙏
Incredible
Thank you!!
Very cool project 👍👍👍🤘 my friend
😁 thank you!!
Exquisito trabajo!!!
Thank you!!
It's very beautiful.
Thank you very much!!
Well done !
Thank you!! 🙏
nice build m8, how did you cut the blade to insert the harder steel into it? also nice music
Thank you very much. I cheated a little. Instead of hot cutting a slit I used the angle grinder to cut one.
Wow serious talent , beautiful Hawk.
Thank you very much!!
Wow great looking hatchet
Thank you!
Hermoso trabajo....de Argentina soy....quiero una!!!!
Muchas gracias! I’m making a few different ones now and will be selling them on our website soon
Very nice!
😁 thank you
It's amazing
Thank you!
Very nice!!!! What is the name of that dust that I press over the iron when you made the blade ??? Thank you in advance !!!
Thank you!! The white dust? It’s borax. It is used as a flux for forge welding.
Very nice job.
Thank you!
I’d love to buy one of these
I’d love to sell you one! And I would if I had one available. I just do this on the side when I have time though. As of now I have a “waitlist” but whenever I do get in to do them I’m going to try and set up a production to knock them all out. I’m hoping in the next month or so. Want me to reach out to you when I do?
@@TheHiddenHomestead well if you do give me a yell
@@itsjustreid7028 I will!
Very beautiful well done
Thank you very much.
Good to know
That is a sexy hawk, well made. Cheers brother.
🙏🙏 thank you very much! 🍻🍻
Excellent craftsmanship! Love the simplicity of your video while showing fine detail. I'm just getting into blacksmithing myself and I'm curious to know something I see often in axe making - the edge made of a different steel you are pretty much adding this as a forge weld because of the unknown/low carbon characteristics of the body correct? If the whole body was made of the edge you essentially wouldn't have any need to forge weld anything (albeit it would be far more expensive)?
Yes exactly. It’s cheaper and easier to forge mild steel but you need a hardened steel to hold the edge.
@@TheHiddenHomestead thank you for taking the time to reply! Much appreciated.
Хорошая работа
Nada mejor que un Artesano prolijo
Gracias
Lovely!
Thank you!!
Ohhh and you just earned a new sub 👍
😁😁😁🙏🙏🙏
beautiful.
Thank you!!
I would take you on my team anytime ! Experience,skill and the level of CARING..... Wicked nice Tomahawk as nice as I have ever seen. Liked how you forge welded that more hardenable edge. 👍
Wow thank you!! I really appreciate that. 🙏👍
Nice job. Wish the video was longer
Thank you. I’m not a fan of long videos myself so I tend to not make them. Do you have a question about the process that the video didn’t show?
Gorgeous work! may i ask how the head is fixed onto the shaft. or is it just the pressure?
As far as I know tomahawks were traditionally friction fitted. That’s what I did to this one. The leather wrap helps hold it up as well.
@@TheHiddenHomestead thanks for you fast answer! Take care
@@FireCrack83 you’re certainly welcome!!
Fun fact guys. This guy is awsome ! Thank you for this video sir
😂🤣 well thank you very much! I’m glad you liked the video!
I would pay to learn, also tricks on how to keep it stable and not get how easily of the edge. Love the darkened wood too. But I love the work there is to build up the pieces, it must be incredibly hard to do and dangerous. Wow. hard to find the place to do this. Tons of tools needed, not just experience.
It’s a really fun process.
Perfection
Thank you!
That us bad ass dude!
Thank you!!😎😎😎
Very sweet
Thank you!
Absolutely gorgeous
Thank you!!
How is the tomahawk head attached to the wood so that it doesn’t fly off if you use it?
tomahawks are normally just friction fitted which is the same way I did this one.The SD card was full when I started the leather wrapping unfortunately. It’s what keeps the head held up towards the end if the wood happens to shrink.
Nice Algonquin design.
😃 thank you!
Настоящий мастер👍👍👍
😁🙏
Этот мужик просто гений!
Сперва закалил топор, а затем начал обрабатывать напильником :)
он все правильно делал.. вконце доводят
beautiful
Thank you!
Damn that’s nice friggin awesome
Thank you!! 🙏🙏
Que bonita y funcional🤩✨🤩✨🤩 un saludo desde España🇪🇸
Job well done how much with shipping
This is just a hobby of mine. So I’m only able to do it when I have the chance. That being said I have a list of quite a few to fulfill but I could put you on there if your interested. This particular one is $350 plus shipping. I can’t calculate shipping without knowing where you’re at. You could reach out to me on Instagram or Facebook if you’d like. Links to both are in the description.
Well Done. 💯💯🙋🏾♂🙋🏾♂💯💯
Thank you!! 🙏🙏👍
Since I’m not a blacksmith… How do I get one or two of your tomahawks?
I could put you on my list. I have a bunch that I’m trying to finish up and if you’re interested I could add one if I get the time. Reach out to me on Facebook or Instagram. We can discuss more there.
I’d like to purchase one of your tomahawks
Awesome! ...but (disclaimer) I make things to order and only when I have the time do so. This is something I do on the side for fun not a full time gig. Yet anyway. So with what i have in commission already it would be a good while before I can get to it.
Nice.
Thank you!!
In general, what’s the point of adding a bit if one were to make the whole axe out of high carbon?
If the whole thing was high carbon there wouldn’t be a point to I guess. But there’s no reason to make the whole thing out of high carbon. In my opinion anyway. It’s a waste of good high carbon and it’s easier to forge mild still. As far as I know traditionally axes, hatches, tomahawks, etc have been made from mild still/iron with a higher carbon bit forge welded into it. Higher carbon was more expensive and harder to come by so it wouldn’t be wasted.
What color do you temper at
It’s kind of a golden tan/brown
Would of like to have seen the assembly of it bro
Yeah you’re right. Normally tomahawks are just friction fitted so when editing the video there wasn’t much to that shot so I took it out. When shooting the leather wrap though the SD card was full and I didn’t realize it. So I didn’t get any video other then picking the leather up to start the wrap.
Hi
Which grade of stainless steel do you suggest for making knife and sword and Tomahawk?
Please answer my question
Thanks
🙏
I don’t deal with stainless so I don’t know.
@@TheHiddenHomestead
Hi
Thanks man
Good luck
Good bye
👍🙏👋
How much would one of these run
$300
Sehr schön
The Workshop is also too hidden on CZcams.
Very cool video. I am looking forward to watching many more.
edit: what's that powder you put on the piece when you forge welded the blade-material to the base-material
Well hopefully I become more visible on here some day. And thank you!😁👍 it’s borax. It’s used as a flux for forge welding.
