    I've seen a thousand listings for that type hatchet and most people claim it's WW2 vintage. I'd strongly doubt that. If it were made in Germany during WW2 it would probably not say "Germany" it would say "Deutschland" and/or be marked with a Reich Eagle.
    I think it's more likely it's a Crate Hatchet from just after the war (1950's) made for export.
    It's a neat, interesting piece though, and you did a nice job with it. Cheers Mate

      I, german, also think, this tool was made after wwll. Not only the ,Germany' , it is also DGM ( Deutsches Gebrauchsmuster/ ,small patent'), in case oft being produced before 1945, there would be DRGM ( Deutsches Reichsgebrauchsmuster).

    I'm wondering why almost everyone who restores these perfect handle tools epoxies the scales on instead of doing it the way it was done originally - peened pins. I have only restored one perfect handle screwdriver so far and I couldn't bring myself to epoxy things together. I wanted to do it the original way, so I used brass rod and peened the ends.

    • @FixitRestoreit

    • @russg1451
      @russg1451 2 роки тому +4

      @@FixitRestoreit But you only epoxy the inside of the scale. Isn't it easy enough to seal the wood without epoxy. I like the fact that if it's done properly (no epoxy), the next person can take it apart easily like we did if they want/need to. I'd hate to be trying to take one apart that had been epoxy'ed together.
      I'm not trying to put you down here, just stating my opinion. Other opinions will probably differ.

      @@FixitRestoreit so does beeswax, and I far cheaper and much more sustainable produced without adding further pollution to the environment. Like I’m not saying NEVER use epoxy because it’s bad. I just don’t like it when people use it literally for EVERY single project. In my mind it’s a cheat. You’re usually a chemical to make things shiny instantly versus having to put real time effort and elbow grease into adding MULTIPLE coats of wax snd buffing it. A properly sealed handle from beeswax will remain water proof for years. And literally if it ever starts to degrade just give it a good sand and ad some new layers of wax.
