Hults Bruk 1.5 lb Rhineland Pattern – Pre 1988

This is an axe head I just received from Sweden. I just hung it on an American hickory handle and sharpened it carefully paying attention to keeping the temper intact. I had blue paint on it with an un-readable sticker on the paint. Any info on this model is appreciated.

Hults Bruk Rhineland Axe – Pre 1988

Good day, I wondered if you might help me identify my axe head. It was found in a badly rusted state and I decided to clean it up. I believe it was originally painted with a blue head and although the handle was broken and in two pieces it was an odd length of 22 inches. My intentions are to restore it and to re-hang, if possible with another 22″ handle. Any information regarding the head design or its name plus if known the date of production I would be very grateful. Thank you
