Couple I picked up - Worth naming on them - had seen this name - but not a lot - but to find a DB and hatchet at the same flea market bought off of different guys was interesting I thought - some pics. DB before and after - sorry only after on the hatchet. Enjoy!

I thought they came out pretty good - left the handle in the DB - it wont be used so no big deal. Had the old time nice thin "whip" handle in it - dont make em like that anymore.

Thanks!
 
I've never heard of 'Worth'. Fantastic patina on those. I especially like the double bit. The left side, viewing the stamp, has been filed down a bit. Or maybe it's just the camera angle.
 
I have been looking high and low for any information with regard to Worth. I have a little 15 inch house axe (perhaps not the right term.. not really sure. its definitely not a hatchet) i want to learn more about. I also landed a single bit axe at an antique store a few days ago with a stamp saying "Trust Worthy" in fairly ornate cursive. I am wondering if this is also apart of the Worth 'canon'? or does anyone even know quite yet? if anyone can offer me some leads here, that'd be excellent! Cheers
 
I've got a WORTH drawknife (10"), it says WORTH just like on the hatchet, but the big asterisk shown on the hatchet is moved to the right of WORTH, like this:
WORTH*
