Hi Gene. Thanks for the photo. I'm begining to agree with you on the Indian origin. The thin, flat blade of this axe, which was the type used for shearing chain mail, makes me think European. Attached, are the dimensions. It's actually a fairly small axe. Wish I had an idea of it's age and value? But that's difficult not knowing it's origin. Hmmmm. I just don't know enough about these items. Maybe some others will see this Post and lend their opinions. Thanks, Rick.
