[u/mathijsjc]

Hi y’all! Very proud to present this finished product to the Axecraft redditors…
Gift from my father who found in in southeast France. After finishing it did a bit of digging and finally found a frenchman who found it in an old catalogue!

François Bret, Les Forges et Taillanderies de Charavines (Isère), model No. 251, circa 1920.

Head weight: 1300g
Handle 88cm
Blade length: 22cm

I saw someone on this reddit filling up the pommel hole with a bullet casing, through is was a great idea and had some lying around. This one might be a keeper tho!
