axe identification
on: October 02, 2018, 06:57:27 AM
Hello all,
 
Its been an interesting week. I got 6 old farm axes with broken handles recently. I will post once they are a little cleaned from rust. But for now a couple of the axes have makers marks..

1. collins  homestead. Its painted blue.....easy to identify.
2. One only has..P C stamped on the head.
3. One is not readable but it looks like its a word inside a square box.

Im most interested in the one with PC stamp

This one I got from my grandfather who passed a few years ago.

No marks. But it will be fun to restore.

So the blue one is stamped China.

There are two with stamps.

One is heavily pitted with P C stamped. Maybe it's a date code?

The other one I thought might be a plumb. But now I think not. It's hard to even see the makers mark. But it looks like maybe a a word ending in S...

Handles on all of these were mangled. In bad shape. So I'm going to try a vinegar bath. And then wire brush.

The one with black marker has a crack in th eye. So ill try and reshape.

Should be a few good projects.
