Tomahawks are fun but because they were designed as a fighting weapon most aren't as good as axes or hatchets at being an axe or a hatchet. They do work, just not as well.
If you want to buy one for the "cool" factor then go for it, many people here have one for that reason. But, if you want something that will work better I suggest an axe.
That said, for what you have described in your post (ie. fallen tree on road) I would say you shouldn't use either but instead get yourself a bow saw. Saws are usually lighter, cut safer, and you can get through more wood with less energy spent and less strength needed. Agawa Canyon makes a good folding one and Bahco makes one of the best budget, non-folders out there.
Good luck!
Saw it here before.
Edit: OH- Boreal Saw
I have been looking for either a saw or hatchet myself. If I go with a saw it seems like the top contenders are the sven saw 21 or the boreal 21.
Are the metal teeth that you cut off typically hardened steel on old saws like this? I only ask because I recently bought a Boreal 21 folding saw for camping, and you can see the hardened tips on that, so I was wondering if you need to re-harden the tips of your saw after cutting new teeth?
Incredible restoration by the way! During the first few pictures I did not expect you to cut those teeth off haha.
