PH19 - Hand-Forged Pipe-Tomahawk
Native-American Pipe-Tomahawk. This is a brand new, original, historically influenced, hand-forged pipe-tomahawk that I forged in my blacksmith shop, The North River Forge. I specialize in hand-forged reproductions of the 18th and 19th centuries. They have an authenticity rarely found in other maker's work. Each piece is unique. Dimensions: Head overall 7 1/8" - Cutting edge 2 3/4" wide. Haft: Aged ash wood, 18 3/4" long. Drilled. Decorated with iron tacks. Construction: Traditional 18th. century construction. Head is hand-forged from 1018 steel with a piece of high carbon 1095 steel welded for the cutting edge. Finish: Aged finish. Period correct. Special Features: Filework on front of blade. Blued bowl. Blued steel end cap with turned antler clean out plug. The pipe is fully functional and can be smoked. Leather blade guard/sheath decorated with an antler piece, brass cones and trade beads. This pipe-tomahawk is stamped with my makers mark NR. Great for re-enactors or collectors who crave tradition. Hand-forged in the traditions of long ago. It is a reminder of an era past. A very nice reproduction pipe-axe that will take and keep a good edge. It has never been carried or used. Functional as well as beautiful. A classic 18th century design. Price: $375.00 plus $14 shipping with insurance. (USA - Canada)
