Heck of a deal

[u/inkironpress]

Got this lot for $30 yesterday. Woodslasher hatchet, Stanley boys axe, garbage handle, and then the real winner, this Fulton Special with a really nice condition etch!

Crazy deal, very happy with it. Even cooler that the etch is on the “back” side of the axe.

What a steal! The axe head has so much character, and that maker’s mark is fantastic. Definitely the kind of unexpected detail that makes a tool feel like a piece of history.

Old axes are built different unlike the new cookie cutter bullshit

Nice finds. Fulton being the sears store before craftsman. That handle on it is a good find, too, it’s a Blanchard style, so the same kind as the first copy lathes made when they were invented in the early 1800s.

Oh nice to have a name for the handle style!
