What brand are those hawks, especially the lower one?
With Blade 2013 coming up I was facing a dilemma-I have all my basic blades covered-Survival: BRKT Bravo 1,Randall #16 Diver,Gerber LMF, Rat Izula, Kabar USMC. Hunting: Randall #28 Woodsman, a couple OK Olsen's. EDC: 2 JK handmade fixed blades,ZT350, couple Benchmades, several Spyderco's etc. Multi-tools: Swiss Army OHT, Leatherman Charge and Supertool.Choppers: a Condor Parang, several machetes and a Gerber hatchet. In addition a LOT of others that come in and out of rotation. It's a basic collection that of the type that most of you guys have.
Nothing new peaked my interest until my buddy picked up a United brand M-48 Commando Tomahawk. Now I had previously eyeballed and looked at them but never pursued the subject. Started researching and and read a lot-mostly from the Lightfighter, and Blade Forum.
I was going to get an SOG from Academy Sports, and then a ATC VTAC at blade but after reading this-http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/sh...hrike+survival I decided instead of spending a lot on basic hawks just get it over and get the "Queen Mother" a RMJ Tactical Shrike S13
.
I bought mine from a friend who never used it and gave in to my "persistent begging."
This thing wasn't cheap but It has a lifetime warranty, Made in the US of A, and is virtually indestructible. It's a great hiking companion, versatile-can breach a wall, cut up a car, or trim trails, and chop branches-which I can attest works great.
In my line of work I may have to make an emergency breach and this is small enough to grab and carry for that use. It will also make a hell of a weapon if needed.
Anyone else out there into Hawks?
