Handheld Carving Hatchet

[Dave]

Handheld carving hatchet. Nice little user.

Basic 2mm veg tan leather mask. Hand sewn, dyed brown, beeswax burnished, neetsfoot.
Ash Handle, Ash wedge, treated with multiple coats boiled linseed oil.

I'm after a froe, draw knife, double bit axe head. [Ideally a froe and a draw knife without handles, or an adze I can refurb ]

Lovely! would a 3 1\2 Lb Valley double bit in good shape be of interest Dave? and if so, would you be ok to wait till the start of next month to do the a deal? if not obviously its all good matey!

Dave,

Hi mate.

That was quick!

Your double bit axe looks the part alright.

Do you mind if I chew on it for a day or two?

I just want to see if anyone has a froe or maybe an unhandled adze, or draw knife knocking about. If not, I'll very probably go for your double bit.

If Dave does not bite Southey I'd be interested in your double bit if you want to swap for one of my hatchets and I'll throw in a bill hook, you can pick from a picture of my collection at a later date, I have nine by the way.

Hay ho.

[Dave]

Sent you a PM Southey.

Now traded for Southey's Double bit axe head.

No prob southey, the others in the stable would have mourned it's loss.
