Hi guys, I had some nice exp. this weekend that i want to share with you.
My dad found this axe head on a pathway in a mud near a factory that used to make them long time ago (he worked there). I was very suprized by the shape of it, 'couse it looks like it has been a production fail of some kind. But the steel is an old school carbon and by the looks of it is very good.
So i cleaned it to inspect a little more.
And by the end of it, couldn't resist of attempting to make a handle to it... Never done that before. Oh, and couple of my mates came over with a 1l. of Grant's... So the workbench was set with food not tools And one of my mates joined me in doing a handle to another axe.
And even before the bottle was done i came out with this:
I owe thanks to GB for handle shape, some more pics later with more detail on it if anyone will be interested.
Thanks for looking!
And NO i made no mistake, the axe head is facing right direction I'll make more sketches on it later so you could get the idea.
