Made a new handle for this old Nash billhook.

Lovely slab of sharp there, and a top job on the handle too. The rivet washer seems personalised - can you share how that was done?

I got a fiskars brush axe earlier this year and fell in love with it (despite the orange plastic). I had a cherry tree felled (got a nice log pile now) and had to process the branches to cart away in the car. Now I have nothing to chop I'll have to find some hedgelaying to volunteer for!!

Super Nice.
Well done.
Cool thing too.

Nice job, it's always good to see old tools brought back to life.

The washer on the butt was just a piece of brass plate cut to shape and stamped. The design was inspired by the base of an Eley shotgun shell.
