My dad asked me to fit this axe head to a handle and make a wedge for it. According to my dad, my grandfather used this axe for cutting roots in the ground or as a sledgehammer (because of its weight).
The steel was dented and deformed. He cut some of the tumor like pieces off and polished it before he left it with me. I used salvaged mahogany dresser shelves for the wedge and a store bought hickory handle.
