I picked up these at the local flea market cleaned up w a vinegar bath and a little sanding. Seem to be in good shape. Any one know approx the age of these pieces? It would be really cool to know when they were made. I def have the axe bug and can't wait to find more. I paid $3 for the plumb and 12 for the Kelly with the original handle. I plan on redoing these axes putting handles on both and using them occasionally. Any info on date or approx value would be awesome. Thanks guys :)

I think a moderator would have to delete the duplicate post. Or it will fade away on its own - no big deal.

You did very well with those.
I picked up a minty Kelly Perfect Jersey head for 6.00 and a really nice Plumb 5 pounder along with a Kelly Rockaway- both complete for 22.00. Aside from those, my flea market find have been scarce. Really varies by region.

Yeah there has been quite a few axes and hatchets at the market. I missed out on a nice plumb hewing axe head for 20$ it was pretty big so I went ahead n left it and finished the last row of tables and by the time I go back it was sold. Lol lesson learned.
