Markings on Swedish Axe

[pokesalad]

My "search-foo" isn't that strong it seems. Anyone have information on what the 0,6 would stand for on a Swedish Axe head? I have a GB head with a 1 1/4 stamp and above that is a 0,6. I know the 1 1/4 is the weight but was curious what the 0,6 meant. Thanks in advance for any consideration given tot his post.

Maybe that's 0.6 kg, which is approx 1-1/4 lbs.

Thanks for that. I was thinking the same but needed verification.

Just a guess. Seems logical though. My small GB, however, is 1-1/4 lbs and has no weight stamps at all.

0.6 is the weight in kilos x 2.204 = 1.32 or approx. 1 1/4 pounds.

My Hults Bruk is 0.8 or 1 3/4 pounds.

Often they are stamped 600/1 1/4 instead. Grams/lbs this time.
