Attempting to save an old Norlund Axe - cstockwell - 04-30-2024

I found an old Norlund Axe in the corner of my garage from many years ago that had been neglected.   The axe was made by A.O. Norlund company out of Lewiston PA and were known to be good axes.  This one appears to be the log splitter axe model and was covered in rust, had some green paint on one part of the side and the axe head was loose.  I did some cleanup of the axe, sharpened it and put new metal round wedges in the head to secure it.  It turned out pretty well and I can't wait to try it out.  

Below are some pictures and a video of the process.
