Finally got around to making myself a wedge banger handle. This was the most miserable piece of wood I’ve ever worked with, the grain was pulling in both directions with my draw shave....took a long time to shape because of this. Turned out ok in the end.

My wedge banga. Came from my wife's grandfather who died a few years back at 100 yoa. Not sure where he got it. I never weighed it but seems to be around 4lbs.

Found this on a blade forum.
The A7 and other variations of that impress/stamp have been found on True Temper brand axes - many times with the only other identifier being remnants of a sticker/label. The letter+ number stamp itself could mean a couple of things. Later Woodslasher models of axes were not struck with a name but rather just labelled with a decal.
