I recently picked up a vintagecRed Warrior double bit axe. Does anyone know around what year they were made.?
 
Looks like Kelly acquired the "Red Warrior" brand in 1921. . .

"KELLY ACQUIRES THE A. A. & T. CO.

In 1921 the Kelly Axe & Tool Co. actually purchased all the holdings and equipment, along with the rights to all the brands and labels, owned by the American Axe & Tool Co."

. . . so a "Kelly Red Warrior Axe" would probably not be older than that.

Sounds like they would have started making them in the 20's and I would guess made axes stamped red warrior through the 70s.

can you post a picture of yours? you have to use an image hosting service like postimage - and then post a link to the image. you can't upload pictures directly to the forum post.
 
Thanks for the information. I'll try to get a picture of it posted as soon as I can.
Found the axe in an antique flea market my wife and I go to often. Not sure if I will clean it up and sell it or keep it for my self.
Thanks again for the help. God bless and be safe.
