Another billhook refurb

[kristophish]

I got a cornellius whitehouse which was in need of tarting up a bit. And heres the finished result. Kind of. I just need to finish sanding the handle.

Cheers mate. Start by rough carving it with a knife then onto a wood rasp. Belt sander then lots and lots of hand sanding
