Tomahawk

Handle is hickory. Straight haft.
The tomahawk shaft is usually less than 2 ft (0.61 m) in length, traditionally made of hickory, ash, or maple.[1][2][3] The heads weigh anywhere from 9–20 oz (260–570 g), with a cutting edge usually not much longer than four inches from toe to heel.[2] The poll can feature a small hammer, spike or simply be rounded off, and they usually do not have lugs.[2]
