Yup from Canada, though not french "eh"Are you in Canada? Seems like more of those are found up there.
I'm surprised that Country of manufacture is not stamped on yours. This is not typical. The Iltis I bought new in Ottawa in 92 was in a Home Hardware shipment of Garant axes which all featured a red embossed maple leaf on the handle. The majority of heads were from elsewhere (already Mexican or Chinese-made?) and I suspect that Garant had quickly gathered up and assembled old inventory just before the company was taken over by Ames. In the mid 1980s a buddy of mine in Calgary sent me a box of lightly used Iltis heads (1/2 dozen of them) that had been orphaned when Great Western Petroleum went belly up.This one had Canadian on the handle, im guessing it would be this Canadian version you mention. It gives me a date, sort of.
