A sheath I threw together.

Nice lanyard!







No seriously, a very cool looking mod job from what I can see. :thumbup:

Gosh that makes me want to do that.

That was not what I was expecting when I clicked on this thread. That looks awesome, how many hours do you have in that?

 

[Dusty One]

Looks good.....Nice job !

 

[GLOCKCRAZZ]

I'm not sure on how many, many,many,many,many,many,many,many, hours I spent the this project. Lots of sanding and filing.
All the leather came from a bag of leather farmer scraps.

woah......its so intense....what does it mean?

 

[cj65]

You done good.

 

[Tin.Man]

Thing is pure badass!

 

[euroross]

I think Ive seen that axe somewhere else before! Looks good.

 

[Tin.Man]

Glock, is that the longer estwing cut down, or the shorter version?

Thanks.

 

[CitizenQ]

Heckuva job!

It is the long one cut down.

Me Likey. So, what did you do, reforge the existing head, or use a plasma cutter and keep old cutting edge geometry?

It'd be fun to professionally re-forge an Eastwing into a bearded axe, and then send it back to the factory for "warranty repair", with a fake complaint letter dated from the 14th century.

Hey that's pretty cool I was thinking of modding an old ax as well thanks for the moto

A plasma cutter was used to cut it down.
Yes, that would be very funny!!

I agree with tin.man.... Bad Ass!

Do you have a 'before' pic? Would like to see what it looked like before you did the work.

 

[benajah]

I sort of disagree with modifying an Estwing, just on general principal, but I have to admit what you did with it look really cool. How does it cut?

 

[GLOCKCRAZZ]

It cuts great....No problem chopping off a few small tree limbs.
This is the only before pic I have. It's before I did the leather wrap.

 

[Carolina River Rat]

Cool. That's exactly what I wanted to see. Looks like it'll definitely take scales.
