Both the axe and the hammer are mounted on wooden hafts, 23 inches long, covered with fabric and reinforced with steel strip and brass tacks. The hafts are fitted with steel collars and steel handles. The axe and hammer blades as well as the haft steel fittings are decorated with silver koftgari decoration typical to the late 19 C. Ottoman style. Very good condition. Fabric covers are lightly worn. Some losses to the Kobtgari decoration on the war hammer and the haft fittings.
I do not agree with you !!
Here are all virtually identical to the one above
