Great vid! I have been training in HEMA with a variety of weapons and have had difficulty finding reliable sources for tomahawk techniques. Do you work from any formal/historical sources or is this an adaptation of FMA/Kali? I have a book by Dwight McLemore, which is largely inspired by colonial accounts and rounded out with british styles of that era. You may be pleased to know that his book agrees with your approach to stop-hits, slaps, and pairing the hawk with a knife/longknife. Most vids on the subject on UA-cam are absolute garbage, so it is refreshing to see your work!
Great video, thanks for explaining Cold Steels' often criticized set screw. Wished I was closer.
