Realized I never posted it on my Facebook timeline, so here it is lol.
A gift I forged for my father for Christmas this year, a type of tomahawk that has been around since the frontier of America known as a “pipe tomahawk/hatchet”, purpose was so that(from what I’ve gathered) the frontiers man could bring their pipe and tomahawk as one tool. This was forged out of a .50 caliber black powder rifle barrel, and the back end(opposite to the blade) is still open and to be used as the to***co bowl of a pipe, this handle doesn’t have a hole in it, however I will be getting a couple handles with holes through them here soon. The end of the handle is where you’d draw the smoke from(mouth piece if you will). I’m happy I was finally able to forge one for my father as it’s something he has always thought was cool and liked
