The Half Face Blades Bleeding Heart Hawk is a rare one-of-one tomahawk from Half Face Blades, built with the kind of exotic material combination and rugged functional presence that has made HFB one of the most recognizable American tactical tool makers. This preowned collector-grade hawk features a dramatic patterned tomahawk head, dyed giraffe bone, Black G10, OD Green G10 and brass pin striping, Black Canvas Micarta split, teak, mosaic pins, and a textured grip.
This Bleeding Heart Hawk carries the aggressive silhouette collectors expect from Half Face Blades, while the handle treatment makes it unmistakably special. The warm teak, dyed giraffe bone, layered G10, Black Canvas Micarta split, brass details, and mosaic pins create a highly visual presentation that feels equal parts field tool and functional art. The included black sheath adds practical storage and carry utility while preserving the hawk’s collector presentation.
Half Face Blades Bleeding Heart Hawk One-of-One Build
The Half Face Blades Bleeding Heart Hawk stands out because of its one-of-one material layout. The handle combines organic and synthetic materials in a layered construction that feels very true to Half Face Blades’ custom language. The dyed giraffe bone adds pale, natural texture near the head, while the teak brings warm orange-brown figure through the main grip. The Black G10, OD Green G10, brass pin striping, Black Canvas Micarta split, and mosaic pins create contrast and depth across the handle.
The tomahawk head has an aggressive, angular profile with a forward cutting edge, top spike, lower beard, and rear lanyard hole area. The finish has a rugged patterned look that works well with the mixed-material handle and black sheath. It is the kind of piece that immediately reads as Half Face Blades: tactical, primitive, artistic, and built with a strong handmade identity.
Half Face Blades and Andrew Arrabito
Half Face Blades was founded by Andrew Arrabito, a retired Navy SEAL, and has become known for American-made knives, axes, and tomahawks built for rugged real-world use. The brand’s tools are often tied to tactical, outdoor, hunting, survival, and everyday carry settings, but many pieces also have serious collector appeal because of their exotic handle materials and limited-run construction.
HFB pieces often use layered handles, split scales, rare woods, bone, G10, Micarta, mosaic pins, and textured grips. This one-of-one Bleeding Heart Hawk fits that identity well. It brings together aggressive utility and highly specific materials in a way that makes it more than a standard tomahawk. For collectors who follow Half Face Blades, Andrew Arrabito, military-influenced American tools, and rare custom hawks, this is a standout example.
