  Made before 1988 is all I can tell from this photo of the maker’s mark stamp. Do you have a photo of the entire axe?

    Hi John,

    Thanks for the second photo. My first guess is the axe was made between 1960s and 1980s. Let me see if we can find more info

  What I love about your axes are the texture of the steep and the proof markings.

  Old and well used tools simply makes you happy.

  Every time I restore a vintage axe or tool, I always have my fingers crossed for a beautiful stamp like this underneath the rust, especially a HB stamp 🙂

  To this date, I have yet to be lucky enough to hit upon a Swedish stamp, let alone a HB stamp, I should be so lucky! #oneday #luckyfinds

  This is the next axe I have lined up, still not taken away the rust, but fingers crossed. this is the most optimistic I have been, but so rusty I doubt there is any stamp left 😛

  I have one like this, my go to axe for splitting, currently in need of a new handle though.
