NOT so cute and friendly. 7lbs (L) and 7.5lbs (R). These are next in line. Just waiting for billet blanks to arrive.

Re: Hewing hatchet
OK UPDATE:
Its a Germantown (Pa.) hewing hatchet. Dates from before 1919 when company was sold to Griffith Tool Works. Cleaned up nice. Did a little flattening on the back but still have more work to do removing the rust pitting.
