After picking up the Plumb boy's axe at the antique mall on Saturday, i should have left well enough alone. But, i wanted to go to the local flea market and see if i could swing a deal on an old vise I saw there last week:
$50, about $1.00 per pound, I think.
On the way back to the truck, I spotted this hatchet on a table with a bunch of old hammers and other tools. For $8.00. Now, i just bought a CT Hudson Bay, a CT boy's axe, and a Plumb boy's axe within the last 3 weeks so did i "need" it? no. The old guy selling them was about 80 yrs old, it was about 95 degrees so i didn't even haggle with him.
no markings, anybody got an idea on maker? seems heaver than a normal Hudson Bay pattern this size.
