Vintage pick axe picaroon war hammer custom JESSE REED baseball bat handle
Up for grabs is a nice old pick type hammer head I cleaned up, had a little fun with sharpening and made a handle for her............ I had some fun with this handle and did some real nice color work on her, this color is a combination of dyes, its not paint, the dye penetrates deep into the wood VS paint that just sits on top of the surface.............. Now back to business, Shes approx. 16 in long and She weighs approx.
There is no damage to this head such as cracks, welds bends or chips...... I mirror polished both of the sides, top and hammer face and left the natural aged look on the bottom side, I think it makes for a killer detail effect to see the old steel up next to the polished parts...................... This hammer is sharp so be safe when using her, if she hits or finger the toe or finger will end up with a big hole in it............. The handle is one of MY classic shapes and is all made by me, by hand here in Oregon......
The handle is made out of one piece of solid Ash...... I did my classic baseball bat theme on this one........... The handle has a great shape and in hand feel to her, it molds to the hand.... I set the head using both wood wedges and epoxy and got a nice tight fit that looks good on both the top and bottom........... I sanded the handle silky smooth and used several coats of clear enamel for the final finish........................ I do combine when ever possible.... Cheaper on you and easier on me....
