Rusty cracked old axe head restoration

Описание: I decided to recycle and restore an old axe head (hatchet) the head was very rusty and had a bolt holding it together because there was a crack through the butt. After restoration I fitted a new handle but I didn’t make my own (too lazy), I did make my own leather sheath which I thought turned out very nice
