Hi Kronckeu.
I really enjoyed your introduction to this weapon. LOL.

I don't have enough knowledge of the blades and armour of this period to comment with any sincerity. But I did want to comment on what a neat looking and interesting ax this is. I really like it. The blade and end spike look hand forged (not a casting). So it doesn't look like a tourist type item. Too well made. When you receive it, let us know how much it weighs. That will give us a clue. Even if not very old, it still looks really good. Would not mind that one in my collection. Congrats. Rick.
