Welcome brother. Great collection of axes. I love the Plumb axe. I have an affinity to Connecticut pattern axes.

 

[Log cutter]

Welcome Log cutter! I'm also a new fellow around here and have recently been smitten by the axe bug! You've got quite a collection of axes going on. Nice! Have you heard of Brute Forge Racing Axes? They're from your part of the world "Down Under!"

Here's their intro into the racing scene.

Enjoy your stay here on Blade Forums!

No no. I'm far from being a blacksmith. Those Brute Forge Racing Axes and its owner is a fellow by the name of Clayton Read.

Maybe there's a quicker way for posting a flickr photo into this forum, but this worked for me:

Looking at one of your photos on flickr, click on the Share tab above the photo, then "Grab the HTML/BBCode", copy the code, and paste it into the "Insert Image" box when posting a reply here (the Insert Image icon looks like a picture of a tree), and then delete everything from the pasted code in the reply except for the URL ending with .jpg

An example:

I would be breaking forum rules to post a linc ---BUT if you look on Australian Blade forums in the trader section - there is a subforum for a guy in OZ axeoexa that collects and sells old tools and axes. Have a look there maybe. I think i remember seeing some of that stuff in stock.

 

[Log cutter]
