Thanks! That’s a old Collins cruiser that my dad chipped a large piece out of on a hemlock knot when he was young. Found it in the barn last year and my neighbor offered to convert it into a saddle axe.

Tricky stuff, that hemlock. It'll get ya. Knots can be glass hard.

He cut the eye out with a plasma cutter and reweld
