I traded a few bayonets for the Axe, in the hand it feels perfect and definitely a functional item. Over 1M in length so a lot longer than my other Bulova axe.

It has that lovely smell and tar/varnish residue (I hope you know what I mean) of an old unloved antique item.

It is all v v tight with no movement at all.

Axe blade is well made light enough but not much flex in it at all, hand forged and v sharp.

The handle is wood simulated to look like bamboo with a substantial brass finial..

The spear head is sharp and v functional.

I will clean off the dirt gently while leaving the platina and take better pictures.

Regards

Ken
