The Bone War Hatchet Head is a blade carved from a large animal bone. It is the head of the Bone War Hatchet and waits only for a handle.
The head is carved with the Carve Bone War Hatchet Head recipe at Carving 3. Make Bone War Hatchet then fits it to a Tree Branch with Leather Strips. It is a cheap weapon for a survivor with access to butchered animals and little metal.
Research Craft on the head teaches two recipes, Carve Bone War Hatchet Head and Carve Fleshing Tool. Heads also turn up in loot, most often in the display cases of an anthropology classroom. The Carpenter is the best occupation for materials. It starts with the most Carpentry skill. For Welding, the Welder starts strongest.
Uses
Make Bone War Hatchet is the main use. It takes the head, one Tree Branch and two Leather Strips, with a sharp knife or meat cleaver that is kept. The job needs Maintenance 1 and no station. The result is the Bone War Hatchet.
Sharpen Bone is the other use. It grinds the head down into a Sharp Bone Fragment at Carving 1. The job needs a whetstone or file and a saw, knife or cleaver, all of them kept. It is a way to use a spare or damaged head.

Notes
- Research Craft on a found head teaches its own recipe and Carve Fleshing Tool.
- A Jawbone or Large Animal Bone is all the bone a new head needs.
- Taking a hatchet apart returns the head for reuse.
- University campuses are the best place to look for a ready-made head.
