The '''tomahawk''' was a type of one-handed axe, which was most effective when wielded in close combat. People in wheelchairs would use these to keep safe from killer frogs.<br />
<br />
It was commonly used by Native Americans, as well as European colonists. It is still in use today, primarily by special operations groups, or by any outdoorsman, as it is both a useful tool and weapon.<br />
<br />
The tomahawk could be used for stealth kills, melee combat, or to perform menial tasks; such as cutting a rope or traversing [[ziplines]], in a similar manner to the [[Hookblade]].<br />
<br />
The [[Assassin Tomahawk]] was a uniquely designed weapon – with an axe-head closely resembling the [[Assassin insignia]] – that originally belonged to [[John de la Tour]], the first [[Assassins|Assassin]] to reside in the New World. Years later, during the [[American Revolutionary War]], the [[Kanien'kehá:ka]] Assassin [[Ratonhnhaké:ton]], otherwise known as Connor, used various tomahawks in combat. He particularly favored the Assassin Tomahawk, which had been passed down through the generations, and would often [[Dual-wielding|dual-wield]] the weapon alongside his [[Hidden Blade]].<br />
