Spyderco Genzow Hatchet Hawk.
Anyone have a Spyderco Genzow Hatchet Hawk if so how does it preform.
Re: Spyderco Genzow Hatchet Hawk.
Still getting used to the feel and balance. It's light and fast compared to what I'm used to.
I've only used it for relatively light stuff and thrown it a few times.
We'll see later in the year camping and doing yard work, when it gets beat on.
Been keeping it touched up on a medium Arkansas stone.

I am not going to try mine till spring, it's too cold here now. It's 1 whole degree Fahrenheit here right now.

Thanks for the replies.

I'm holding out for the Maxamet version.
Can you find it and can it cut? :eek:
Re: Spyderco Genzow Hatchet Hawk.
Personally I don't like the hammer head, prefer a spike on the rear end of the blade.
In my experience you can improvise most hammer tasks by spinning the handle in your hand by 90 degrees and using the middle, flat part of the axehead.
Imho a spike comes in handy much more often than a designated hammer and can often times safe the edge of your hatchet by using the spike instead of the actual blade.
A spike is also better for throwing.
But that's all personal preference of course, based on the tasks I use a hatchet for
