I've only got the one 'hawk (a Cold Steel) but I do have a couple of hand forged francisca style axes.

Its a fun sport I enjoy.

I own 2 both cold steel.

the rifleman's hawk and a norse hawk.

I use the rifleman's hawk at work and I keep the Norse hawk at home to throw and take camping.

I have other axes and tools but I don't throw them.

Sticking to the 'non-axe' throwing, here's a shot of me getting in a good throw with a Cold Steel shovel.
