(TRADED) For sale- Vintage Collins Hatchet, 1.25lb head w/ original handle and sticker, and custom convex razor sharp edge. The head has a real nice natural patina on. The handle has a tiny knot in it. The knot had already fallen out when I bought it from an antique shop many years ago, so I filled it with wood putty and sealed it with two coats of acrylic. It does not seem to affect the handle's integrity, as it's very small. I also custom convexed the edge with a belt sander, and it is razor sharp and ready to chop. Asking $55 plus $10.00 shipping

(SOLD) 2) Filson Tin Cloth Bush Hat- Worn briefly on 3 separate occasions in cool weather and is less than a year old. It's a size Large, but for some reason, shrunk slightly after I got it and is now more like a Medium/Medium-Large. I know that hats like this can be stretched by hat makers, so this might be an option. Made in the USA. $34.00 shipped.

If the hat is large or Xtra large I'll take it.

Eyedog, sorry, just updated the description. It is a size Large, and my head nearly swam in it when I first got it. Not sure why, but it shrunk slightly after a few months. A friend who wears a lot of hats said it can be easily stretched back by a hat maker (usually cowboy/western wear places have this service) for just a few bucks.
