Review: Great Zombie Weapon, Tool, and Display Object - The axe/tomahawk itself is perfect. There is nothing wrong with the one that I received. When I received it, it came in a decent size shipping container. When I opened it, I was greeted with a few strips of those giant air bubbles and the axe itself. The axe was only covered in a bit of plastic. There was no box for the item itself so you wouldn't know that it was actually from Cold Steel or what the item is specifically. So in other words, the packaging could be nicer. I expected more from Cold Steel than just plastic wrap on the head. The sheath was one of the reasons that I bought the axe. I thought it was pretty cool and I was not disappointed. When I removed the sheath, there was a bit of paper, held on my grease/oil, probably to keep the blade in good condition. I removed it an wiped off all the oils from the axe. I tested the sharpness of the axe and found it to be sharp enough. It can cut through paper rather smoothly but is not 100% consistent through out the blade. That doesn't really matter too much since you are going to be doing a lot of chopping an not much fine cutting. Just in case you were curious, there is an area close to the head of the axe that you can hold ergonomically. With that, you get more control of the axe head and can do some fine cutting if you wish. The spike on this is very sharp and can definitely be used as a weapon during something like the zombie apocalypse. Even though the odds of actually having a zombie apocalypse is nearly 0%, it is still a fun tool to have. The handle feels very durable and strong. Total weight is 2 lbs 3 oz or 990 grams. It has a nice heft to it. Whether you are using it for some fun destruction, handy work, or a weapon for self defense, then this is a pretty good axe for your money. It costs slightly more than some lower end ones but it is well worth the $10-$20 more.
Review: I'm No Tactical Tomahawk Guru. - I'm not one of the guys who spends $100+ on very many things I consider to be "simple" items. I may be on the verge of blasphemy for some but I don't a live in a world in which I pay over $100 for a tomahawk....after all, it is just a tomahawk. Sorry to all the true backyard warriors out there for offending your tactical sensibilities. I received this product and promptly took it apart to further sharpen the edges, paint the metal OD green and then used blue Loc-tite to re-attach the handle to the head. This is not a full tang axe...the metal only goes slightly past the lower attachment point. This tomahawk will mainly be used for ATV duty during hunting season. I didn't buy it to complete my end-of-the-world armory. It seems very durable and it was inexpensive. Both things that I like.... One thing I didn't like was the slippery handle. After a couple of licks at a piece of pine I knew I had to fix that. I didn't want to invest the time it takes to stimple the plastic (like the Glock guys do to their pistol grips) so I ran down to the local sporting goods store and picked up a roll of Easton batters tape. I wrapped the handle with the tape and the slippery handle was fixed for under $5. I also feel it worth mentioning that the tomahawk does have finger grooves in it just below the axe head. That makes it easy to grab the handle up high and use it with confidence for small tasks that require more control. Once I put this tomahawk through a harsh winter hunting season of whacking tree limbs, cutting bone, clearing shooting lanes and other various tasks I will report back. Bottom line...inexpensive tool that can perform as a multiple-tasker in the hunting world. Update: Five years later and I'm still beating the crap out of this tomahawk. It has held up superbly. I absolutely recommend this for any outdoorsman or hunter. It is a reliable workhorse. Update: Almost six year have passed and I'm still beating the crap out of this tomahawk. It is my go to tool when I go to the woods to prep for deer season. The handle wrap has long since fell apart and I will have to redo that. The head cover has lost a few screws as well. This tomahawk is a must have for anyone who spends time in the woods. Update: 13 years later and I am still using this tomahawk. Now relegated to yard work, it served me through 13 years worth of outdoor activities. It’s beat up, it has been beat on, it has been sharpened more times than I can remember. I have used it as a hammer, used it as a club, used it as a prying tool and it has never broken. Yes, the head cover is long gone due to treatment on my part but the tool itself is a survivor. After 13 years, there are absolutely NO complaints…only admiration for a tool that has become a treasured companion for my adventures. It is equally at home riding neglected in the back rack of an ATV during hunting season or hanging in the garage waiting to trim a poison ivy vine. Just buy it and beat on it for 13 years…and enjoy a well-made tool for a decent price.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cold Steel Trench Hawk VS. SOG Tomahawk...which is better?
*by A***R on September 5, 2010*

I am a owner of both the SOG Tactical Tomahawk and the Cold Steel Trench hawk,these two are probably the most coveted of tomahawks on the market.Fellow hunters have quoted me on which is the better buy.Well I can't decide for you,but I can list the pros and cons of both of these to decide which might be better for you... COLD STEEL TRENCH HAWK Pro:Blade is made from Carbon Steel Con:Carbon Steel can easily rust Pro:The blade and spike design are definitely geared towards hunting Con: The Trench Hawk is pretty limited to use in hunting only Pro:The handle is sturdy polymer at 19" in length Con:The handle has no textured grip Pro:The Trench Hawk comes with a hardshell sheath that's really unique Con:The sheath has no belt loop SOG TACTICAL TOMAHAWK Pro:the sheath is button opened with a belt loop Con:The sheath is made from nylon,a semi cheaply made sheath Pro:The blade is made from stainless steel so it will not rust easily Con:stainless steel is not as strong as cobalt steel Pro:the spike is extended for greater reach Con:the spike is not very sharp,needs a sharpening stone's touch Pro:has a sturdy polymer handle with textured grip Con: overall the tomahawk is 15 3/4" this could strike the user as small if you've carried larger tomahawks(but this could be a pro,depending on the user) Pro:the vietnam tomahawk design allows it to be great for camping,hunting,and climbing-lots of uses,it's your multi-tool's companion. Con and Conclusion:The SOG is very sharp and can be used for hunting,but due to it's shorter handle and slightly less aggressive design it's recommended you keep it very sharp,if your only interest in a tomahawk is for brute force then go with the Cold Steel Trench Hawk.Personally, I bought both because I couldn't decide which one I liked better,they're both highly recommended!
