I've been looking quite a while for a good throwing axe or tomahawk. Last month got a Cabelas gift card for my birthday, and with that $$ in my wallet, took up the search again and picked up a new SOG tomahawk today. I usually visit three outdoor shooting ranges, weather permitting, to shoot my muzzleloader pistol. Plan to learn how to throw this tomahawk as a new-to-me sport this year, so it will go with me wherever/whenever I shoot my Trapper.

Other than the SOG, I also handled a CRKT Woods Chogan T-Hawk today. Great-looking tomahawk head with an exceptionally beautiful 19" Tennessee hickory wood handle. I was really tempted in getting the hickory furniture. But it was too heavy (weight at 33-1/4 oz), and I'm pretty sure that sooner or later I'd have a broken wood handle.

A few stats on the SOG tomahawk, followed by some pics I took.
~~Blade length is 2-3/4"
~~OAL is 15-3/4"
~~Weighs 24 oz
~~Blade is 420 stainless steel
~~Handle is fiberglass-reinforced nylon
~~Nylon sheath for belt carry
~~Can use as a hammer with the flat head side checkering as guide
~~Regular axe for smaller wood chopping. Perfect for dead branch clean-up in my backyard.

Looking forward to throwing this addition to my other "things with an edge."

That's a great lookin tomahawk. I've heard they are nice to throw. Look forward to your reports.

looking forward to seeing it in August at the gathering

Sweet looking Tomahawk.

On the news this morning was a report of a Restaurant in L.A. that features Ax Throwing Bays. Can't remember the name. Edit: "Mo's House of Axe"
I guess the idea is all over the country right now.
Looking saw a Laser Tag/Ax Throwing party offered.
I have 8 or so clevers ranging in size. I often thought about throwing those.

There is a facility only one mile from me called "Timber Axe Throwing ". Been meaning to try it. Have been in there, it's a really nice place!
Wish I knew how to post the link, but you can Google the name. It's in Hendersonville, NC

The Club hosts a Rendezvous every Octber and there are Ax Throwing Targets scattered about.

I've got a SOG TOMAHAWK that's the survivival model. It's not ment as a throwing Hawk, but it does real well. I just have to remember to take the flint rod out of the handle prior to throwing, or it might break.
