My first attempt at doing an educational (or time wasting) video. Of course I used my favorite historical item for our first video: the truly American pipe tomahawk. Link to the blog post with the pics from the video: scavengeology.com/scavengeolog...
A blend of native and european influences, which came together on the American 18th century frontier. A look at several original pipe tomahawks in the Scavengeology collection.

It’s the two most important tools in one. A weapon and a bowl… war and peace.
Thank you for sharing your collection. Fascinating stuff!
I’m used to seeing this guy in cop/lawyer videos. He’s also a history nerd like me
Nice, saw these in a book. Interesting to see something made for peace and war.
I knew you were a good guy when I saw u on your other channel with some of your stuff in the back ground. Im addicted to 17th and 18th century Weapons and accouterments. Love all that great stuff

*Hanwei make a legit sharp and smokeable pipe tomahawk today they are amazing just dont drop one on your foot after a bowl*
a very interesting video for all Tomahawk Aficionados .. thank you :)
Thank you for the very good movie. I would like to know somethink about making the inlays an for example such tin decoration of the mouth piece, but it´s difficult to find in the web...
why were they made of brass instead of steel or iron despite already deep in the iron age
Cool stuff
Very interesting thank you
That spontoon tomahawk is amazing! Love the facets on the bowl. What are the overall weights on these tomahawks? I understand the reproduction handles might not be “accurate” for what the original weight might have been, but I am very curious how lightweight these were. Thanks for this great video!

@@paigeashtonjackson154 Yeah that was cool! He seems happy with the Empress. The historic examples were inspiration for our designs--the weight and size is especially important to capture the combative capabilities of the originals.

@@paigeashtonjackson154 we make everything in small batches. Right now Empress Tomahawks are available, but Backrippers are out of stock and we have an order list on the next 3 batches--3rd batch has some openings and should be ready in July. After that we hope to be caught up and have them available in the store.

Also we don't ask for pre-payment--only pay when ready to ship. Send email to be_edgy @wingardwearables.com I'd you want in on the Backripper list Thanks for your interest
I always assumed that the tomahawk was used to chop and process the tobacco.
So they are made in England?

They were made in England and France and in the colonies as well. And we’ll in the US post Revolution.
Circa 800
that brass pipehawk is gorgeous
Axes are for wood dummy. Tomahawks we're for killing
