Thanks for finding that very interesting

Below is the Ardex beside a Collins they are identical size and weight and they make the same ring when splitting

Nice stuff.
There is something about the Norlund axe head design that is calling me. Just seems like a real good design.

Here is my small collection so far

The small tomahawk isn’t very big

And here is the rest of the Norlund range to keep an eye out for

Still tryin to find me a nice little pickeroon. I think I would prefer a wooden handle one.
I may just buy a new Peavey brand one. Or the logrite version.

Cmon Chevy. Get you a used one n put a handle in it. STAY FOCUSED. I’d bump you with my boat today

If I could find a used one I would. Nothing here in RI that I can find.

If you don’t hate eBay they have some heads on there. If I had one I’d just up n send it to you. I doubt I’m clever enough to use the dirty little things

 

[RI Chevy]

Lol. I will check now.

No axes but a score no less. I think my man is holding some axes n mauls. He gave me this stuff. We get up and hang every once in a while. Same fella tore down one of my saws to let me know I had a stuck ring n bad crank. So with a round about way ppl were around he didn’t trust today. He gonna dig into his personal stash n hook a cracka up

Well....... Get some handles on them!

Any input on 2 4 5 from the left?

Gonna make a longish pounding punch/chisel hammer for number 5. Just never really seen any like it. Nice heavy head. No markings on that one. Not likely any valuable pieces there just sorta take what I can get. Same guy has hooked me up with nice axes in the past. We barter and trade

Tough to really tell by the photo.

I might play with this. Found it on a trailer at work. Maybe. Flap wheel re shape the edge square. Grind it out. I’m too busy now but I’ll get around to it. Got a few handles in some of that junk I brought home

Yeah that’ll come up ok is it too deep for a vinegar bath

Looks Sweedish to me with the ears.

Yeah it’s pitted way too deep. I’m guessing it got buried at some point

Maybe a wire wheel first? To see what's left? Don't have to worry about a shelf queen with that one. Lol
