are you sure it's 6 lbs. (2.7 kilos) seems a lot.

Thanks for the reply, I have to take the word of the owner about the weight, I have looked for other "Frankish" axe but can not find one that is verifiable, it does have a little similarity with some Indo-Persian axe I have seen but not enough to call it that in my opinion, I will keep looking.
