Don't take it to Marshall. Paul may abscond with it!

I've been re-profiling and carving handles for axes, hatchets, and tools for years. This is fantastic work. Nice job!

Sorry Matt
I did some finish shaping and smoothed it out. It's ready for sanding. I cut the tongue down, rounded it over a little, and made a center cut 2/3 of the length. I cut a wedge from a piece of walnut. I'm going to sand it after lunch and then mount the head on it.

I drove the wedge in as far as I could. I gave it a few more wacks and it broke off flush. The head feels solid. I hope it holds. I'll post some finished pictures when I'm done putting the tung oil on it.
