SOG Fasthawk: A Brilliant Survival Tool
I recently purchased a SOG Fast Hawk Tomahawk.
When it arrived I couldn’t help but chuckle to myself at its size.
As far as tomahawks are concerned it is definately on the smaller end of the scale.
I love survival gear of all shapes and sizes though so I the next day I took it out to woodlot at the back of property and put it to the test.
I picked out an average sized poplar sapling and started swinging.
In six seconds I had cut right through it!
I almost fainted in shock!
For a tiny tomahawk it certainly packs a punch!
After a few more goes I had made up my mind, the SOG Fasthawk is absolutely the best tomahawk I have EVER owned.
It is faster, lighter, more agile, and easier to carry than its sibling the SOG Tactical Tomahawk but it is still a powerful, versatile, and functional survival tool.
It is a tool that will be used for much more than you might think.
Chopping, breaking, cutting, hammering, piercing, digging, prying, pounding shaving, notching, opening and throwing are all tasks that can be achieved with the Fasthawk.
Lastly, what I also love about it is the simple fact it is built like a freakin tank!
The 420 stainless steel head with a hardcased matte black coating is mounted to the ballistic polymer handle with heavy-duty bolts and a steel ferrule to insure the strongest integrity.
Side hammer checkering insures precision placement when swinging.
With its strongly constructed nylon sheath it can easily be mounted to belt, backpack, or gear.
In my opinion it is a universal tool for any survivalist.
