Richard J just sharpened my 25 year-old Craftsman hatchet. I wouldn't have thought he could get it shaving sharp, but he did. Here it is with a Strider AR I'm reviewing and a few of my hairs.

Kinda scary when you get a hatchet that sharp, the thought on your mind is don't miss, don't miss.... but they are get for fine brush crafty stuff
 
i wish i had taken some before and after shots. the edge was at least a 3/32 flat if not wider in spots and harder than most hatchets i have done. i tried to clean up the finish but it wasnt happening too easy even with an 80 grit belt.
i dont know about my sharpening a telephone pole but you could chop one down with that axe head easy enough.
