Hi guys just recieved a 1lb kent pattern axe head in the post, bought of a certain auction site.
Was only a pound (under a fiver with p n p )so I couldn't say no, only mark on it is the words Five Fifteen and it appears to have been made from sheet stock folded over to make the eye.
The probem is there is what looks like a crack were the folded end was forge welded, its not open just looks like a bad weld, kind of like where damascus hasnt weled up right is only way i can think to desribe it.
Can this be fixed and can anyone tell me anymore about the make ?
(Will try and get pics as soon as I find spare batteries for camera)
