 yup, a slightly more distressed version of mine. sadly a live auction for 12 hrs, so we can't post anything about it yet. rather vague description.

"ANTIQUE MEDIEVAL STYLE FIGHTING AX GERMAN ENGLISH POLISH HUNGARIAN sword dagger" found online
 - that description pins it down. ()head dimensions are very close to mine, haft a couple inches shorter and not gussied up like mine. edges of the axe head's body are squared, eye is open, not closed, not rounded as in mine. mine appears to be a more finished version. |

The distressed one definitely looks like a modern replica designed to fool. '...style' being probably the only useful word in the description!
How does your one look Wayne, in the way of seams, welds etc, that may give a better clue to its age. Regards, CC |
