Suitable for re-enactors from any period stretching from the French and Indian War clear up to the final settling of the West in the late 1800’s, our Frontier Hawk is a joy to use! It’s as light as some camp hatchets, but its design allows for a vast amount of cutting potential!   (NOTE: any handle can, and will, break eventually)
