This is a sad little doorstop. It’s actually not dead but the head
flies off when you swing it over your head, at which point you have
to run in the direction you think the hatchet head didn’t go. This is
a really nice little number with a hammer shaped butt on the back
and a little prying notch just in front of the handle. It looked old
when we found it out in the garage ten years ago. We used the
heck out of it and now the handle around the head is very worn.
They had some axe handles at Home Depot but nothing this small
so I asked for a new hatchet for Christmas. Tony got me a nice
modern one you can really lean into and this old fellow is actually
sitting in a place of honor on the bookshelf in the studio.
