I know you have alot of hatchets. Do you by chance have a Norlund? My buddy gave me one today he picked up at a flea market for 5 bucks. I left it at the shop. I'll post a pic tomorrow.

Scott, that one I passed up at the Trapper's Rondy, in the place were they were doing the demos, was a Norlund. You got a good one.
 
I have a Norlund Hudson Bay axe & a Norlund Hudson Bay hatchet, that I have had since the early 1970s & both are in great shape & still cut great!
 
The one I have, the head is like a tomahawk and the handle is similar to a hammer handle. I'll post a pic later today.

Hey Scott,

Sorry just answering this just got back from 3 days camping at a huge hippie jam band fest and 1 night in the wilderness. I think the heat and mile from the camp to the stage and half mile to the water tested my survival skills more than the wilderness;)

Yeah I got one. Yeah mine is similar to what you describe and it is a good chopper.:thumbup:
 
Head like top one Scott ?

Yes, akabu. Here it is. I reprofiled the edge. It was too thick.

Scott,

That's the one I got but that looks like a replacement handle.

I thinned down the edge on mine too.:thumbup:

I wondered about the handle. Looks more like a handle for a ball peen hammer.
