    Wow! What a cool looking loot-like axe project. Are they a kit option for somewhere or are you doing a scratchie?

    Yes this is what I thought when I saw it, it will have to be a scratch build, my first.

    Wow, there's another one to look at for reference. I hadn't seen many teardrops before, now I've seen lots of them, different brands and all.

    No this one is flat backed, but I like the curved idea, more lute like.

    flat back will be much easier to build from scratch Neil

    Yes it will, I need to make a body template first. My hope was to round the back edge more than this one, but I will see.
