Tomahawk, full size
: [#75] Head measures 6 1/4" long. This type was used by Washington's army, issued one to about every six men. A utility camp-axe, it was also a pretty deadly weapon of last resort. The cold-rolled steel head has a hardened tool steel bit sandwiched into it. The hammer marks of the blacksmith who made it are clearly visible. The eye has a one degree taper so the head cannot fly off. Hickory handle about 19" long. Handmade throughout.Price: $36.95
Indian Tomahawk: [#76] Smaller than #75 above, ligher, handier for carrying on the trail.
Made exactly like the "full size" tomahawk, you will find it a fine throwing
axe.
Price: $34.95
British Tomahawk: [#358] Has the square poll found in many of these weapons. Solid carbon
steel forging to take an edge and hold it; head is 6 1/2" long, hickory haft measures
19".

Boarding Axe: [#436] This was the weapon that sailors clutched in their sweaty hands as

away!". The head is 9" long, cutting edge is 3 1/2" and is 22" overall. Has British
broad-arrow mark on head.

broad-arrow mark on head.
