I have to argue that. It doesn't look like any Persian or Indian axe I know.
It does look like a Franciska to me, at least like an old replica, probably Victorian. I will look into my books. Please check also here: http://www.axtwerfen.de/_20010102-14...e143__ENGL.htm

Hi,
yes the shape is verry similar, but there would no decoration on a francisca.
Victorian replica sounds interesting, if you got anything abaout that i would appreciate it
