Thank you everyone for your feedback and comments. I have attached a full length picture.

The piece is 27 inches overall, weight 2.5Ibs and head length is 5.5 inches. The head is relatively thin but feels like it could hold up and not bend if striking something. The handle looks like it was added at a later date and does appear to be leather. The head edges appear to have been sharp at one point and now dulled. Just reminds me of a primitive halberd head....

Assuming the piece originated in Baldwin County, Alabama (which I know is nearly impossible to determine), I know that area has an interesting history from say 1750 to 1813.

Appreciate any further comments.

Mark
