Did you know?
Originally, the Native Americans made tomahawks with stone heads attached to wooden handles. They were previously used for a wide variety of purposes; for chopping, cutting and sometimes as a weapon. Becoming the weapon of choice in the early 16h and 17th centuries, the axes developed into different variations, being upgraded with spikes, pipes and other additional features.
