The Ultimate in Martial Arts

Amongst the collection of military style Tomahawks featured in the Navy Times article Cutting Edge Hawks is the Sayoc-Winkler R&D Hawk.

FMA practitioners can see the influence of the Filipino Kalinga headaxes on the design of this lightweight hawk.

Made by ABS Bladesmaster and LAST OF THE MOHICANS bladesmith Daniel Winkler.

Very nice Raphael. A bit out of my price range, but very nice. I can see all kinds of possibilities for that weapon.

Nice axes, I had never seen one with a blade also on the top.
Thanks for sharing those.

Thanks William and TS.

We've gotten excellent feedback from the hawk. Yes, anyone used to CQ applications of FMA knife work will see the multitude of applications this weapon allows.

I really love the design so functional as well as aesthetically pleasing for such a damaging weapon! I would just love to take a swing at something with that. Thats the feeling it gives me. Excellent work.
