Default A possible medieval axe with markings

This axe has found its way into my collection. It has 6 markings on it resembling a star pattern with a + in de the middle. This is done in the Gothic trefoil manner. The blade is slightly curved and the top has a hook like structure.
The haft is modern made, by me, but should portray the correct look?

Guns are more my area so i must admit that this axe is a total mystery

The blade measures 31 cm long by 11 at the bottom and 14 at the top. The reconstructed haft is of pearwood and 86cm long.

Does anyone know more about this type of axe?
