Does it weight about 2 1/2 pounds? Usually those types of markings relate to weight.

Cruiser size. Nice head!

2 with a smaller 2 like that means it should weigh in real close to 2 and 1/2 pounds. Markings look crisp. I happen to have that same one in Flint Edge. Nice piece.

Thanks for the help. I have been cleaning it up lately and am almost finished. I am needing to get a handle for it soon and have looked around at the local hardware stores and haven't found one that looks good. Can anyone tell me were I can get a good one. I contacted OP link and they said they didn't sell to individuals and I don't know were to go to get one. Also what is a good length.
