Gentleman of Fortune Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Again, too many projects, not enough time... Here is another antique ax head (head only, no shaft) This thing is a monster... Not all Boarding Axes were hatchet like affairs, some were robust and had handles of almost 3 feet (Gilkerson Boarders Away Vol1 pg 30-32) This would make a perfect el-grande boarding ax. The head alone weighs just under 5lbs and the length from tip of spike to edge of blade is 13" Handle socket is rectangular and is 1 1/4" X 2". If you have skills with a grinder or with blacksmithing, this would be a perfect project. $45 Shipped PM me...
