[QUOTE="Steersman, post: 158504, member: 239"][SIZE=5] Axes are one of my very favorite tools. I've sold a pickup load of them and have more than that left. Never run across one like this.[/SIZE] At first I thought it may have just been bent, but since it's obviously early, (I'm guessing early 19th century), DW brought it home for me. After a closer look, I think it was made this way. Blade is 8 inches, unifacially sharpened. I only cleaned it a little and a mark popped up, possibly "16UR." Any ideas?
