Actually I would recommend against anything in the classic tomahawk design.

What you really need is a good hatchet or a machete.

Tomahawks were designed as a trade item for the Indians and used mostly as a weapon or for butchering game. Their lightness makes them little good for much anything else. A machete is a more versatile tool.

If you use them as a hammer, the softness of most hand forged tomahawks will cause the eye to distort and the handle to fall out. They are too light to be very useful in cutting wood, and for digging, a sharp stick would almost suit you better.

A machete will cut wood better and faster than a tomahawk, and its wide blade would made a better digging tool as well. Also the wide eye on most tomahawks make them wretched tools for splitting wood.

A small hatchet or a machete would be a better choice.
