Please Note: Each blade is sharpened to ensure maximum axe throwing penetration under current NMLRA and WATL rules and regulations. These blades are not designed to be extremely sharp (like traditional axes). Our blade edges are far from dull, but they are sharpened only enough for ideal sticking in axe throwing competitions and events. Too sharp makes chances of the hawks to stick on the wood boards less.
The following tips and suggestions can be used to improve the life of your handles and make throwing hawks more enjoyable:
- Coat your handle with a durable lacquer stain for long lasting durability
- Modify the length of the handle to suit your throwing preferences
- If the tomahawk head becomes too lose soak the tomahawk (both head & handle) overnight in water
- If the head is too small for the handle check the eye of the tomahawk head for any leftover burs that block the handle for seating properly
- If the head comes loose in the field, pound the top of the handle on a hard surface while the tomahawk head is seated to the handle for a tighter fit
