I haven't had a whole lot of time to make anything this year, but finally have a bunch of heat treated blanks back from Peters Heat Treat to work on. This is the first of five hatchets I have ready to be made. This one wasn't actually completely finished (needed more hand sanding to smooth things out a bit, plus i would have liked to bead blast it), but the friend of mine I made for wanted it and has it already. He isn't really into fancy tools and will give this thing a good beating. I can't wait to see how he likes it once he's used it a bit.
Yeah, these photos aren't that good and there is WD-40 and fingerprints all over the hatchet in both pics...
