Belknap Bluegrass Boy's Axe

[cooperhill]

I picked this one up as a Buy it now on the 'bay for $20. Received it today. Cleaned it up, quick profile, start of a sharpening with diamond files, and hung it. Hung it on a 28" "Do it Best" boy's axe handle. Pretty nice handle for the price - local hardware store pickup.

Somewhat clear stamp.



Before. Looks like someone already gave it a vinegar wash.



Wedged. Thanks Peg for the tips on beveling the wedge.



really nice geometry.







Thanks for looking.
