War Hammer?

I just bought this and has not arrived yet. Curious to get some thoughts on it, age? Victorian copy? It is out of area but could not pass it up for the price...Seller thought it was from around turn of 20th Century.

24 inches overall, about 3 pounds

Thanks

Hello: I wanted to follow up on this since I received the item today. The head is approximately 5.5 inches and overall weight is 2 pounds, 4 oz. 24 inches in total length.

The head is hand forged, not cast and the handle is hand planed. The handle is old, but I feel that the head is older.

Would appreciate any feedback. Thanks again.

Doesn't look very comfortable for holding........

not too bad for holding. As mentioned, 2 pounds, slightly more. Definitely solid, not a toy.

Curious as to age...handle is not as old as the head in my opinion.
