just got me a 3lb Plumb gents ! I don't know how good it'll work but it'll sure look pretty lol
I had this new 36" handle already for another head but thought I'd hang the plumb on it....the eye is too big for this handle so she won't get hung tonight, time to handle shop I guess.

That’s a beautiful Plumb single bit...where’d you find it? Looks like it’s never been used, just polished.

got it from an auction website. this particular seller touches them up then puts a nice bevel/scandi type grind on the bit then coats them in lacquer, I thought it looked awesome when I saw it, I had to have it lol
now I've got to find a handle to hang it on

Hi from Norway.
First day on this forum, I have seen a lot of good looking l axes and chainsaws here. Got the love for axes 3 years ago. This is my R.King Toolsteel USA. Bought a rusty head on Ebay and hafted it with a hickory handle . Burned it lightly and then oiled it with Owatrol.

Welcome to the Forum! [emoji2]
Nice ax. Post all your ax pics. We love pics here. [emoji106]

I interesting that you being from Norway, bought a USA ax. We, here in USA buy European axes. Lol
Its all good though. Lots of great axes out there.

Can you explain more on that ax top. Very interesting wedge there.

Welcome to the madness! That's a great looking ax, I particularly like how you burned it darker near the head. Very Nice

Thank you. Hehe, you have a lot of fine axe makers in the USA. And a lot of different head patterns t we rarely see here in Norway.
