So I had some axes to sell, so went ahead and did that, 5 all told. So of course I had to take that cashola and instead of using it for Christmas or anything else, of course I had to take that and turn it into more and different axes!

So here are the 10 - all new ones for me -

The is a Flint Edge DB, a TT Red Warrior connie, a Shapleighs DE broad hatchet(with original paper label on handle), a Belknap broad hatchet, Homestead connie, and a Firestone boys axe with handle labeled as Firestone as well(never seen that before). The Binghams DB has a nice imprint as well.

I like this idea, see what else I can come up with.

Thanks for looking!

Merry Christmas to all!!!!
 
That's a great way to expand your collection without spending any more money. Some beauties there.
 
All of the axes are nice, but I really like the Shapleighs broad hatchet.
 
Those all look in really good condition. I have an OVB looks just like yours and a BBB hewing hatchet.
 
Yumm! Yumm! Yumm!

What a magnificent set of axes. I was immediately drawn to the connie on top. That must be the Red Warrior. The DB with the dark handle also catches my eye. The bits are still nice and square. That's a fresh axe.

While I like all 3 of the boy's axes that middle one, the 5th handle down from the top appeals to me the most. It has great shape, virtually no toe wear and nicely convexed cheeks.

Every handle looks solid. I wish I found more axes like these in my searches.
 
Your collection must be amazing!
Thank you for shareing with use.
Merry Christmas, Axe Nation!
 
Nice! I recently picked up a beautiful Bingams Best 3.5 pound single bit head and just hafted it myself. Do you know much about the company?
