Restored Vintage Norlund Hatchet(SOLD)

This is a fantastic restored vintage Norlund hatchet. The hatchet head weighs around 1 1/2 lbs. It measures 5 inches wide. The cutting edge measures 3 inches wide. I have cleaned, sharpened, blued, and waxed the head to give it an aged look. I handmade the handle, from a larger piece, using American made hickory from Tennessee. The handle measures 15 inches long from the top of the head. The hand hewn and shaped handle has been given a red, brown stain, an aged look, many coats of a linseed/pine tar oil, and finally sealed with a period correct oil varnish.

The case is completely handmade and hand sewn with waxed linen thread from 8-9oz vegetable tanned leather. The features include, 2 steel pins, a welt along the cutting edge, a dark brown stain, and has been sealed with a period correct oil/wax finish.
