Modified Germantown Lath Hatchet – Poll
Modified Germantown Lath Hatchet – Close-up of Poll
Markings: Germantown
Dimensions: 6″* x 1-1/4″ (* cut to this length)
Weight: 14 oz. – 397 g.
Notes: Looks like someone broke this hatchet at some time in the past and modified it to make what you see here. I’ll be modifying this much further in the future as this shape doesn’t seem very useful for anything. It’ll probably become another Jess “Stabby tool.”
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.
