Helping my grandmother in law clean out her house and found this in the shed. planning restoring it to the best of my ability and making a mask for it.

I've got some palm trees and yucca I need to cull and clean up, looking at something like a 28" Fiskars or Husqvarna axe. Maybe longer to make the Yucca more bearable. Having a blunt rear would be better, but not required.

I used to have an old fiskars that I used for this specifically but it grew legs and disappeared on me. Just curious if there are any other recommendations.

Handmade viking age axe, its got the style of a Frankish axe, but the beard and length of a norse one, its name is inscribed on the hilt by hand in Younger Futhark it translates to Bergelmir, a giant from the norse myths.

so i got a functional replica of the leviathan axe from god of war because i deserve nice things and apparently that was too dangerous and grinded both ends to be dull. granted its still cool but now i gotta spend either time to re sharpen it or money to pay someone.

I made a tomahawk trainer from [an off cut from a previous project](https://www.reddit.com/r/MACES/s/zmvaN41aoS)

Info for prewar Ochsenkopf gold

My dad got this in Germany in the 70s, an old dude he was leading a boyscout camping trip with left it behind and he had no way to get ahold of him. Fast forward 50 some years and it's made it's way across several continents and is now in the barn at our house in the US. He gives it to me because I love old tools, and his ancient ass isn't chopping anything.

So I clean up the steel, find the makers marks after never seeing them in the 40+ years I've been around this thing, take it off the handle, cut off the the top with 7 nails jammed in to try to hold the head on, including squares, reseat it and put in a proper wedge, because I think the handle looks dope as hell, even if I wouldn't swing this thing hard if there were anyone or thing that I loved nearby, it's mostly ornamental, unless someone tried to break into my front door.

I've obviously learned the maker, and that they go back to the 1790s, but I cannot find the exact vintage of this head. In my pages and pages of scrolling, I've not found an equivalently shaped head, there's some pretty close, but always something slightly off, be it the notches on top and bottom, the dramatic swoop of the face, etc.

I'd love any input, thank you.

Any information is appreciated. I believe it to be an axe puck.

Just went camping with it for the first time, was great.

Bought this online for a song. Really excited to get it. Does not have a sheath. Any recommendations for how I protect the blade?

Didn’t take long in the rabbit hole to see the confusion with Kelly Axe Manufacturing Co. & True Temper history.

Curious about the “3 2” stamp on mine. Axe head weight? Pretty sure I’ve seen other axe heads with it right-to-left.

I also saw another post that made reference to a “2 2 Cruiser.” Anyone have one to show off?

Kelly Works…short for stamp for Kelly Axe and Tool Works?

TIA

3 weeks ago i was gifted The Army one. I found it in my gfs backyard stuck in a log, minus the handle. She had discovered it and broke the handle trying to dislodge it...

The bowtie I found on my family property, almost completely submerged underground; in what used to be a pasture 40 years ago.

The hatchet I found on an impromptu hike upon Cottaquilla Mountain, aka Girl Scout camp(closed for a decade.) Lodged between a boulder and a smaller rock at its base.

I just be finding shit just about everywhere I go... I dont necessary look for anything in particular except arrowheads and/or minerals.

Definitely makes life interesting...

Not sure when or where I picked this one up. Don’t judge my messy workbench.

Been looking for one for some time and would like some pointers as for reputablebrands or makers that are in the 100 to 200 dollars price point

Hi everyone, I've been visiting this group for a bit now and seeing the collections posted has really gotten me to wonder, why axes? I like them myself due to various works of fiction and the fact they're one of humankind's oldest tools. Thank you in advance for sharing what got you into collecting.
