Forged this blade over a year ago . Finally put a handle on it today.
Walnut with cast pewter. I did something I have never done on the pewter, I put a brass pin in the bolster prior to pouring the pewter. Turned
out good. Forged in finger rest.
Here is my first Rasp hatchet , 4.5x2.5 Head, Handle is 9" from end to end. Two pieces of rasp ,with 1084 inserts.
Forge welded in the coal forge. Hope you like it. Thanks for lookin. John Costa
