I just bought an Rinaldi axe...  :facepalm: Not the axe I was wanting for the challenge, but a sort of small teaser axe to have a fart about with before then.

Thank you chaps!  :cheers:

It's size 00 so very light at 400g. I just thought the design was very interesting and unusual - it has a very flat haft.... and because it has a flat narrow head, I'm hoping it'll make a decent carpentry axe if I make a smaller handle for it.... I won't really know until I get my hands on it.

where do you find those things Fuzzy?

That particular one was lurking on Amazon so I snapped it up, but I think you can order directly from the factory.

My father referred to the lower hammer as "the Big Persuader."

As in, "This isn't working. Go get the Big Persuader."

By the way, I wasn't just showing some random hammers - it was the nails and staples crammed in the top of the haft!  :ahhh
