With the blade angled like that it isn't going to be useful as a camping or bushcraft tool. Other than grubbing tent pad stones I don't see much use for the spike either. Hang it in your vehicle in case you have to break a window, peel back a door or chop a hole in the roof. As a collector item (anyone got any idea of how common or how desirable/valuable these are?) the value is going to drop if you alter the scales.

Searching via Google I see that these are readily available 'brand-spanking new' for about $50. I guess you can have a go at modifying it into something that you think may be useful, without really jeopardizing your investment. You can always buy another one, or better yet check out Harbour Freight bargain hatchets and choppers.

It's flat like a knife and just won't perform like a real axe no matter what you do.
I'd do as others have suggested and put it in your truck.
