Beautiful, nice work and thanks for sharing!

I asume the 1065 is an inserted bit. Is this correct? Good choice.

 

[Moonw]

I'm pretty sure these are forged from a single piece of steel. 1065 differentially heat-treated makes a solid tool.

I spoke with Sorin over phone, and he left a lasting impression on me. As I told him, if language is (ever) a barrier, I will gladly help.

His English is more than serviceable, but in case anyone's wondering, here is the translation: "Axe, 850 grams head weight, hand-forged, 60 cm black locust haft."

All my axes are forged from a single piece of steel, differentially heat-treated

Excellent. Thank you.
