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.
