Here's my one and only Legitimus, an old hand forged pick that was in the garden tools drum at a thrift store. While it isn't an axe and the stamp is almost unintelligible, I'd like to think it's the only known Collins Legitimus rockaway pattern pick known to exist.

Do you think that is the original handle?

 

[7x57hunter]

Yes, I believe it is.

That’s a damn fine pick!

Thats exciting man!
Could you share some more pics, of the eye and pole, all of it and the handle length? lol!
Still only able to count on one hand the auto camps i know of.
Wicked Cool!

I'll bite.
SP is right A A17 that pick is fantastic! How are you healing up btw?
7x57, you've got some killer ones too!
And Miller, your collection is hella nice man!
Here's my legitimus collection so far.

It's hard to pick favorites... But I really like that NOS 7 point crown produce hatchet.

But there are others I like a lot too! This connie is an absolute blast to chop with.

4-1/4lb Jersey monster. I think original haft though it isn't marked.

I found this Old Timer legitimus on the original helve a few weeks ago.

And that's my legitimus collection.

The two in the foreground and the giant export are all over 5lbs.

It had a nail in the wedge when I got it that I had to pull out...appears original to me. Measures 18.5”

This is another Collins with I believe the original handle. 3 1/2 lb
