A tomahawk is a type of throwing knife that is typically thrown with the handle held perpendicular to the blade. The blades on tomahawks are usually about 4-5 inches long, and the handles are about 6-8 inches long. Tomahawks can be made from many different materials, but most are made from steel or titanium.
There are two main types of tomahawk throws: overhand and underhand. Overhand throws are when the handle is held above the head and then released, while underhand throws are when the handle is held below the waist and then released. There are also variations of these throws, such as side arm or backhanded throws.
The best way to learn how to throw a tomahawk is by practicing with a replica or training knife first. Once you feel comfortable with your throwing technique, you can start using a real tomahawk. Be sure to find a safe area to practice in where there aren't any people or animals nearby that could be injured if you make a mistake.
