Yes, This shows very similar axes, note they have much larger socket eye diameter than steel hafted ones, to take a larger dameter (and longer) wood haft. The Qajar parade axes tend to have skinnier hafts and thinner blades welded to the socket piece, as they were not intended to actually be used. OP's one looks like a proper weapon one.
