Found this blacksmith made hay hook, with nice forge weld, at a garage sale on saturday.   Also found was this shaping hatchet, with the steel edge clearly forge welded to the iron body.   No names on either.   Have a feeling the hook was made at a local forge, where the hatchet head was possibly made in a large shop, with machines to cut the basic shape, before the smith got it.  $2 apiece sound good?

$2 for a broad hatchet in decent usable shape?  Sounds *really* good to me.  I would have snapped it up without thinking!

Two bucks for a axe head aint bad at all.
And I'm proud to be an American,
where at least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.
