The Dark Hawk is a handcrafted throwing hatchet that pairs a stealthy, character‑inspired aesthetic with dependable, real‑world performance. Its head is made from 1045 carbon steel and offered in both polished and forged variants, delivering reliable edge retention and impact durability through repeated sessions. The polished blade finish provides a clean, display‑ready shine, while the forged option emphasizes a rugged, worked‑steel texture—both built around a balanced profile that rotates smoothly and sticks consistently.
Built by Hacha Manufacturing’s skilled makers, the handle is available in ashwood or rosewood and sealed with a protective wood oil varnish that enhances grip while showcasing natural grain. Two handle length options—approximately 15 inches and 17 inches—allow throwers to tune reach and release timing for repeatable accuracy and comfortable control. Careful head‑to‑handle fitment and finishing deliver a secure, confidence‑inspiring feel in the hand that holds up under frequent use.
Proportions are thoughtfully tuned for presence and performance. An approximate 4‑inch blade length offers a generous strike zone, while an around 750‑gram head weight promotes stable rotation without feeling cumbersome. With an approximate total weight near 1050 grams, the axe carries a satisfying, balanced heft that transitions smoothly from training lanes to display shelves.
