Please post images when you finish the embellishments. I like to use brass wire in sheath making, I think it gives a very cool look. Very stellar piece!
That one was realy great Scalphunter. It looks great. Very nice wood in the handle, and nice finish. I realy like the brass tacks to and the beadwork. Who made the hawk.
I must have one made for me, by my axemaking friend. Its 10 out of 10 thumbs my friend.

Okay guys, here is the final result after "dressing" up the hawk by "antiquing" the head, running brass tacks down the length of the handle, and adding a fringed, buckskin beaded "drop" at the end of the haft. Click The "Links" below. Thanks.
