Here are a few custom hawks I recently finished.
One Damascus and the other cable.
Both have maple hafts.

no particular style other than my own.
Re: custom hawks
What form! Great work, Bruce. Heads and handles are equally beautiful. Can you show how you secured the haft?

Re: custom hawks
They are mounted like any hammer, from the top, not drop in like throwing hawks. If I can remember, I'll get a picture. They were wedged with brass flat stock.
The Indians didn't regularly throw their hawks. They were too valuable.

It makes sense they didn't throw their hawks.
