I wouldn’t mind having a puget

Yeah I'm afraid axe/hatchet collecting is in my blood now.

I might have an extra, if I remember I'll dig it out for ya.

Apparently my memory deceived me, I found 3 or so swampers but no Puget in my hoard.

CT Velvicut Boys Axe I have soaking in Raw Linseed Oil:





I bought it from Wiseman Trading Co., Athens AL. Good people!

Well I think I have a bit of a problem finally built a rack to hold my axes and realized that I'm gonna have to add another round to it. The even bigger problem is I have almost this many more heads that need to be cleaned up and hafted.

Very nice collection. Love the rack!

My axe rack with my -currently pitiful - collection:



Sledge hammer, Max Axe, CT Boy's Axe, CT Jersey Falling Axe.

Some of mine at the GTG

Whenever I ad another ax to my "collection" it splits nowhere near as well as my Dragon Slayer and it ends up collecting dust in some corner.

I need to weed out the undesirables and look into modifying the few heads that have potential.

I just won this at a local auction:




Handle has some issues:




Piss-poor fitting job:

I think the design need some tweaking, it’s a little uncomfortable.

Honestly, as hokey as it looks, the chopper was a splitting machine! Us kids got one for my Dad many moons ago. We didn't know any better than to buy a "gadget."

Thing is, it actually split like a beast! Used it for many years, finally lost a spring.

I still have my dad's from the 70s. It has it's original straight, fiberglass handle. When my dad passed I ended up with it and it was missing a spring as well. Just couldn't get rid of it. Then I found out the company has been re-established and is making both new axes and repair kits! So it's back in action again. Throwing chunks of wood into the neighbors yard just like the good old days (don't chop near windows)!

NICE! I wondered if anyone would catch that reference. I have it on their RELICS compilation and on UMMAGUMMA.

I caught it. Give me a gold star!

Rehndled the Bluegrass with the same handle and resharpened it:



I've got it soaking in raw Linseed Oil as we speak. I need a sheath for it; it's razor sharp now.

 

[Woodslasher]

I'm cleaning off my bench, if anyone wants these guys just cover shipping.

The 4th pic is hard to read, but I believe the stamp on the hatchet says "Sweden". The middle head is unmarked from what I saw.

 

[Woodslasher]

Axe heads are spoken for.
