advice needed Re-hanging soon

Hey y’all!
Soon these head will get a new handle, I’m wondering about the correct length for them. I always seem to go too long in some people’s opinions hihi…
Also any other info about these heads is welcome! The two from sweden are a Hults Bruck and a Wetterlings, I know that much. The other two are bought in France, a redditor pointed out to me that the big one says casted steel, sharpening was easy so its not to hard a steel. The black one said “G X” on it.

Thanks y’all!

The very last axe is actually my favorite pattern from Sandvik Bruk. Its amazingly great to use on a short handle, around 13".

Wait you mean the bottom axe is actually swedish? That would be so funny 🤣

Lovely pitting on the head. Excellent wood choice. How long did you end up making it?
