The FastHawk from SOG is a faster, lighter, more agile, and easier to carry version of its sibling the Tactical Tomahawk ax. The handly also has recessed grooves to increase purchase, but lacks any texturing or paracord wrapping to make the purchase a bit more positive. While this is great for a loadout, the throwing applications require a bit of practice and skill. The handle itself is ballistic polymer, virtually unbreakable, and well balanced for throwing – however, it is a tad light at just 24 ounces.
