These are smaller than they look but me and the daughter took them out with our throwing knives and had a blast throwing them. They are surprisingly sturdy and sharp and seem like they will hold up well to abuse. Definitely not for someone looking for a big war Tomahawk, but a well balanced throwing tool.

These are lightweight, so are easy to throw for all ages and ability. Beware, they are sharp. I have had them for two months now, and they have held up great. There is no rust and there are a few dings from hitting other axes in the target. The parachute cord handle needs to be glued to keep from sliding up the handle and. is starting to get nicked from contact from other throws (glue or use nail polish to keep from fraying after getting nicked). I only use the axe covers to transport them, as it takes a while to inset the axes in them. Overall, I am very satisfied.

Very durable*During practice these have landed hard on rocks and concrete and aren't worse for wear. About the only thing to damage them (superficially) is another thrown axe. I tried drilling a hole a bit further up the handle to make rewrapping them easier and gave up after ruining 3 HHS drill bits. The steel is very hard.The handle cord*The cord wrapped around them will have to be replaced. When you hit one of them with the blade of another you'll fray or sever the cord. I recommend replacing it with something bright and painting the exposed metal to make them more visible. You will lose them if you keep them all black.SheathThe sheet is impractical and otherwise only useful for storing them.ThrowingThey are very light but throw reasonably well. After finding my distances, they hit the target quite consistently. I had better luck at first throwing them point first.

Small, lightweight, but sturdy. 8yo used it too and was easy to throw. We played for several hours with about 8 different adults playing. The hand grip held up, but would be nice if it was rubber grip. Definitely smaller than expected, but was just fine for what we were using for. My friend made us an axe target and everything was perfect. 3 Tomahawks came with 1 black storage pouch. Fits snug, it’s perfect. Very happy with purchase.

Having read other reviews mentioning paracord unraveling, and worrying about losing the black hawks on missed throws, the first thing I did with mine is to put red heatshrink tubing over the paracord handles. The blades are very sharp and the heatshrink and paracord underneath will still slice instantly if you hit the handle of another hawk, but at least the rest of the heatshrink prevents the paracord from further unraveling.These hawks are very light and small, and they rotate a lot as a result and you also will have to throw them with a bit more force. Still, once you get the right distance and release, they are very easy to stick consistently. At a distance of about 15 feet, I get two full rotations to stick the blade. Compared to the heavier and longer Fasthawk for which I get one rotation at roughly the same distance.During the first session, I had many missed throws with impacts to various parts of the hawks. The hawks are holding up very well.3 stars for light weight - would like them to be a bit heavier, but they are fun for what they are.4/5 stars for durability/sturdiness - paracord gets damaged easily, the steel is holding up great.5 stars overall. Just adapt your technique to the light weight and take some measures to protect the paracord, and you'll have no other complaints about this set of hawks. Tons of fun!

Bought a pack of three for throwing in the back yard. They are super lightweight, so I’d be afraid they’d break if treated like a real tool. Super sharp right out of the box. My biggest gripe is also about the paracord. The knot unties and tries to unravel immediately. I recommend gluing that knot down or electrical taping over it before you even throw once. When the knot comes undone, it’s a pain in the butt to retie! If you’re already used to standard size/weight hawks, I’d give this one a miss as it takes a lot of getting used to the super light weight. Altogether not a bad throwing toy. Just needs work on the cording, and patience throwing the lighter hawk.

They’re made pretty well and actually come quite sharp compared to other knives on amazon. The case is kinda wack and don’t work very well but the knives themselves are good.

I purchased these axes for a Winter Survival event called a "Snow Derby" put on by the Calvinist Cadet Corps boy boys aged 9-14. One of the events every year is a "Mystery" event. In the past we've done pellet guns, archery, and slingshots. We were looking for something new to do and had the idea to do Axe throwing.I purchased three sets (9 axes total) of these and built targets for the event. All total we had about 150 boys throw 4 throws (1 practice, 3 scored) between the 9 axes. Not to mention the adults supervising were throwing them non-stop during slow periods at the event. each axe was thrown at least 100 times on average and we had no issues. All the axes stayed sharp enough all day except one that got thrown and hit a rock. But it was easily sharpened.All in all I was very impressed with these affordable axes and would definitely recommend them. They far exceeded my expectations for these axes.

Great as my first throwing axe. I don't have a comparison to other axes but these will do the trick for some backyard fun. Light weight and very sharp. The metal is somewhat cheap and easily be damaged (any part of the axe, even if it's the handle that erroneously hits something). Good news is that the edge is the easiest thing to sharpen. A few quick passes over a leather strop before a throwing session is all you need. A tad more over-all weight would be nice.

After being coerced into attending a local renaissance festival, I discovered the joys of throwing sharp objects at wooden walls. I spent most of my renaissance day (and most of my budget for the day) throwing objects ranging from full size axes to throwing stars at different targets. Upon my return home, I had to continue my obsession and get my hands on a number of throwing axes small and large, various lengths of throwing knives, etc. My order included one set of these SOG Throwing Hawks based on their high rating.In terms of throwing, these have a great "fast" feel to them. The 550 cord on the handles seems to hold up well to repeated use, but it does occasionally dislodged and slide up towards the head of the ax (east to fix by sliding it back down). The edge is razor sharp, hence the advise to NOT use these while inebriated (lesson learned...). As a single piece of steel, there is really nothing to "come loose" beyond the 550 cord, making them very durable.The reason for the 4/5 stars is this: they are too small/short to realistically control the spin for accurate throwing. These little suckers fly, spinning many revolutions before they hit their target, even at short ranges. In other words, "1 spin" or "half spin" variable range throwing techniques probably wont be doable for the average thrower, making these more suitable for "spray and pray" throwing styles or throwing from a predetermined distance.
