Here are some pictures of some hatchets and hawks I refurbished and modded...

They turned out Great, You sure do some Very Nice Work, They'll make a real nice Camp Hatchet/Belt Hatchet, Thank's for sharing more picture's of your Work, There "Beautiful"
 
Thanks again Snake. I'll do much better when I learn how to do everything right. But, there's nothing like having a project like this to get one's feet wet. LOL!

I'm just curious to know if anyone else uses vinegar or anything else to put a patina on their ax/hatchet heads? It works great on my Mora high carbon blades.

What brand is the 5th pic?

Looks nice!!!:thumbup:

There is some dude on EBAY who POLISHES old hatchets
They are super shiny
Almost chrome looking
They seem to command a pretty good price..........

I got a bunch of heads I need to make handles for
I am kind of addicted to buying old hatchet heads;)
 
Hatchet 15 is a Plumb hatchet. I actually bought this one new about 25 years ago and decided to refurbish it along with the others. It originally had a dark red handle and black head.

I think I would have a hard time parting with my collection. Besides, if I thin them out I'll probably give them to my sons and SILs.
