<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jeff Drum, post: 1868619, member: 6444&quot;]Recent thread took me down another rabbit hole researching a piece I&#039;ve never taken time to research before. I believe I have an example of a native american stone axe, so an example of what the other piece was trying to be. I believe this is called a &quot;celt&quot;. Based on my limited knowledge, it appears that they think this would have been attached to a handle for use as an axe to chop wood. But it is SO comfortable in my hand that I wonder whether it wasn&#039;t used that way, without a handle? The gentle slope of the back is perfect for lining up with a thumb. Does anyone have any doubts about authenticity or better information on how this would have been used (hand or handle)?</p><p>[ATTACH=full]243845[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]243846[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]243847[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]243848[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]243849[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]243850[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
