Someone had been looking for a heavy broad axe 5 or more pounds. Well, I was doing some browsing and found this

I'll bet I can get Kevin to purchase the heads and install our aluminum handles and sell them for much less; let's say for less than half, at least. 8) 8) 8) 8)
How about it Kevin? the ax could go along with the Timber framing hammers as a package. 8) 8) 8)
Apparently the photographer didn't have a clue what the tool is used for...
...or I am reading too much into the split firewood piled under the axe
:D

If you ever saw an episode of Little House, the dad tries chopping a log with a broad axe :D They move the camera away and miraculously the log is fully chopped. :D
25 inch handle is a bit short. It is more like a hatchet but a tad heavy for that. Handle in my broad axe is more like 37 inches and my hatchet is 16. Maybe they's short people? Most important is will it hold an edge? Seems to split fire wood ok.
