@@gustifer0311 Yes bro, it's all plain and good (for my life view, no changes mean no bad news). About that knife, I can say it's a hybrid between a big knife and a machete. Really good on chopping wood, but I've not used it for batoning, because the blade is thin, and I've doubts about its resistance.
I use Hot Glue to help hold a tomahawk head on the handle. If I have to replace the handle, just heat the head a tad till the glue melts, and remove the head. Pretty easy. I too love Tomahawks, I have 4 or 5 of them :) Take it easy and stay safe.
@@gustifer0311 it works well, but you have to make sure to use enough hot glue, and use the industrial strength stuff. Also, make sure the tomahawk head fits right first, then rough up the handle a bit, where the head fits, and rough up the inside of the tomahawk head. Then apply the hot glue to the handle, and slide the head into place. Let the glue set up, takes about 15 to 20 minutes for the industrial strength stuff to set up. If you need to remove the head from the handle, just apply some heat to the head. You don't need much, just enugh to melt the glue.
Old guy here with a correction. Tomahawks were, and still are, used as weapons - not for splitting wood. By the way, those that you have would make for good modern day throwing axes. Good video.
That woods chogan always looked derpy to me. Too hammer heavy. I prefer the Cold Steel versions. That said, I just ordered a SOG Fasthawk. That one always had a true tomahawk look and "feel" to it despite the modern materials. Pair up a Fasthawk with a large knife/bowie for batoning the big stuff if need be and you're all set. Lots of versatility but not overboard on weight and space.
Good lord, I thought you where smarter then that, Get ri of the set screw and just sand down the handle till the head fits snug. I have the Rifleman's hawk and its my favorite.
Yes they certainly require sharpening before use. This is becoming increasingly common amongst manufacturers. I think it another 10 years will be doing our own grinds lol
@@kennedydewitt3219 most of those hatchets are made of a very soft steel. If my memory serves me correctly it’s 1055 on the chosen.. which is not something you want on a nice put on a hatchet, it will sharpen very easily.
Nice job on video and showing off tomahawk!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🪓🔪👍👍
Thank you my friend! What’s your favorite tomahawk?

Crkt has a couple of big knives in the catalog. I've recently purchased the Chance in Hell, and I'm pretty satisfied, it's a good knife.
I don’t know what that knife but by the sound of it I LIke it lol! Hope all is well my friend!

Oh wow! I never thought of that! How does it hold up when you are chopping away?

Great vid !
Thank you my brother !
Good video man 👍, Thanks for your service.

I got a Estwing Black Eagle for a Shtf skull splitter / war hammer 🙄
I’ve been wondering about that one! Love my eat wings hammers!

I recently got the Gibson Axe from Esse. Man, love it! Wonderful little Carving Axe!
i agree.. this one is too heavy to use single hand for long time. I take cold steel as well. I can swing cold steel for whole day

Yeah I don’t put any faith in that set screw.
The screw is to keep the shipping cost low
👍🗡😉
That SP10 is still outta stock🤔. Those Balisong trainers sure are expensive!
I see several of them on Amazon! Do they ship to your country?
@@gustifer0311 I don't have Amazon right now. I,m in Florida
I picked up the small orange Chogan Hatchet and was very disappointed, a butter knife is sharper than this Hatchet

@gustifer0311 I am not sure if I want to attempt to sharpen it or send it I am afraid of it not being able to keep its edge
