Markings: Americanax Half Hatchet Glassport, PA
Dimensions: 6-1/2″ x 1-1/8″
Weight: 1# 3.4 oz. – 543 g.
Notes: A really great find.
this is a 100 year old hatchet. The Americanax closed the Glassport, PA in 1921 so this is from that time or before. Its well used as seen by the wear and battle scars. Looking forward to getting this one back into service.
This tool is part of a refurbishing project that includes 21 hatchets and hammers. If you would like to see the other rusty tools that are part of this project (including some 100 year old hatchets and hammers) they can be found in the post below.
