Description
Our Iroquois tomahawk head is wax cast of 4140 alloy steel. The 6-1/4″ head has a 2-7/8″ edge. This head design will accept our standard 18″ hickory handle, with little or no fitting.The head is a precise wax casting, and will require deburring and polishing. Deburr the front of the “poll” (hammer face), to remove the casting gage, using a few long strokes of a fine file. Polish the blade surfaces by hand, using fine emery paper or fine sandpaper, backed with a hard rubber or wooden block. Avoid using power wheels which give a modern “bright buffed” appearance.Or brown it with our BC-PBI-5 hot browning reagent.Or blue it with out VANS-BLUE instant cold bluing reagent.One 18″ tapered hickory handle with each head. Sanded smooth, this handle is ready for stain or oil finishing, if desired.The eye is shaped with a flat poll with molded edges, engraved with an incised star burst design. The blade has an incised line and dashed border, with a traditional leaf design.Made in the U.S.A. by Track of the Wolf, wax cast of tempered 4140 alloy steel, a few licks of a fine file, before each day’s use, will keep the edge sharp.
