Trench Hawk

For collectors and working outdoorsmen who want a tool that looks as lethal as it performs, the Trench Hawk delivers. Designed for chopping, piercing, and throwing, this hawk blends the slicing edge of an axe with a wedge style spike to give you multiple tactical options in one compact head. Drop forged from 5150 carbon steel and differentially hardened, the Trench Hawk is made to take heavy blows and keep performing. It ships with Cold Steel’s articulated Secure-Ex sheath and a handle engineered to resist shock yet remain easily replaceable after years of hard use.

A short history of the hawk and tomahawk lineage

Short, single handed axes and hawks have long been practical tools and improvised weapons. In North America the tomahawk evolved from indigenous utility implements into versatile field tools and fighting implements. Over time modern makers blended those practical roots with military requirements to create hawks that are optimized for cutting, breaching, and close work. The Trench Hawk continues that evolution by combining a cutting edge and a pointed spike into one head geometry optimized for tough use rather than decorative display.
