After 30 years, Peter LaGana's original Vietnam Tomahawk is back from its original manufacturer, American Tomahawk Company. American Tomahawk lost Peter LaGana to cancer in 2002, but his legend lives on in his brand, his designs, and his military service to our great country as a WWII Combat Marine Veteran.
LaGana's legacy is grander than ever today, as American Tomahawk Company has become the leader in the finest American-made Tomahawks and specialty Hatchets that money can buy. The company is owned and led by Andy Prisco, a well known cutlery industry executive whose unique background includes professional Knife & Tomahawk throwing instruction, Archery coaching, and exhibition shooting.
In today's high-speed tactical tool market, the Tomahawk offers features and benefits which are unmatched by a knife of any size, shape, design, or steel. When made from modern materials and modern production methods, the Tomahawk's unleashed power is almost magical. Peter LaGana recognized this years ago as a United States Marine, and later as a professional Trapper. He sold nearly 4000 of his famous Vietnam Tomahawks to our country?s servicemen fighting in the jungles of Southeast Asia. When the war ended, so did Peter?s second form of patriotic service to his country, as a provider of this unconventional tactical tool.
Since American Tomahawk's re-born formation in January of 2001, Marines, Soldiers, Airmen, SEALs, Survivalists, Sportsmen, and Law Enforcement/Rescue personnel have used their products all over the world. The United States Army Rangers are counted among their closest associates and friends, featuring an American Tomahawk Company sponsored Tomahawk Throwing Event at the Best Ranger Competition, Fort Benning, Georgia.
Whether you love the outdoors, serve in a military branch, participate in period reenactments, collect blade-ware, or just like to throw, a Tomahawk from American Tomahawk Company offers high performance and in some cases, very collectible value. All of their Tomahawks come with a lifetime guarantee against breakage for the head and a free re-sharpening service. Extra wooden handles are in abundant supply and available at a nominal fee.
