Trond, I had indeed found your axe page and put a link to it and your main page on the static site entry page. I had not noticed that I could enlarge the photos and so have been appreciating the engraving.

Wow Lee, that seems to be a 100 % original Norwegian battle axe, probably from the 1630s or there about and with a beautiful flamed birch shaft/handle (what is the correct English word?). A pity that there is a chip missing from the edge. But the handle, I really wish I had an original one as well.
