Axe wip

[sausage100uk]

My father got me an old axe head which turned out to be a wetterlings. Heres some pics of the refurb so far.

Pretty rough to start with.

Into the vinegar bath..

Two days later

(Thats not a crack, just flaking paint)

Re shaping the edge..

Ready to be hung before sharpening.

That dark line on the pics after the acid bath shows where the head was heat treated too.
