Hults Bruk – Yankee Agdor – Pre 1988

I found this rusted HB axe head in a shed on a property I just bought. Wanted to submit it since I haven’t really found a lot of pictures featuring the red permabond over the eye. My guess was it’s a 70’s Yankee 3lb axe (hard to see in the pictures but the weight says 1,3/3).
Just hoping for any more info. Since it didn’t have a handle when I found it, I’m trying to make sure I fit it with the intended original. Thanks!

This axe is a Yankee pattern probably made after the 1960s and before 1988. In regards to the handle length, it wasn’t uncommon for an axe of particular weight to come in multiple handle lengths.
