This one is on its way to the customer. Its overall length is about 17.5", with a cutting edge just under 3" wide, and the inner curve of the beard sharpened. Head forged from 1" square 4140, etched in vinegar after heat treatment to darken it, handle is hickory.

Sweet! Reminds me of a breaching axe. Did you harden the hammer face?

Very nice work!

Thanks, guys!

Xander - Yep, whole shootin' match is hardened. The poll face is lightly crowned like a hammer face.
