#A10 Hand-Forged Colonial Style Trade-Axe
Hand-forged colonial trade-axe. This is a brand new, original, historically influenced trade-axe that I forged in my blacksmith shop, The North River Forge. I specialize in hand-forged reproductions of the 18th and 19th centuries. They have an authenticity rarely found in other maker's work. Each piece is unique. Dimensions: Head overall 5 3/8" - Cutting edge 2 3/8" wide. Steel: 1060 Traditional 18th century blacksmithing methods. Haft: Curly maple, 16" long Finish: Blued. This trade-axe is stamped with my makers mark NR and come with a leather sheath/blade guard. Great for re-enactors or collectors who crave tradition. Hand crafted in the traditions of long ago. It is a reminder of an era past. A very nice reproduction frontier trade-axe that will take and keep a good edge. It has never been carried or used. Functional as well as beautiful. Great for many jobs around the camp, home or shop. A classic 18th century design. This hand-forged axe is also very useful for the woodworker and sculptor for the accurate removal of waste stock. Great for green woodworking, trimming billets for country chairs, spoons and bowl making. Price: $160.00 plus $14 shipping (USA - Canada - Europe - Japan)
