    Default Collins Two Bit Axe - BCUSA Collaboration Auction #19

    Here we go! An axe head (Collins Double-bit) donated by Wyndigo, hung by Treeline, and a mask done by Aven. This a beauty for sure! All the rules of auction #1 apply and the proceeds go to the site and the Campfire Fund. This auction will start at $20 (winning bidder agrees to pay actual shipping cost and bid price). This auction will run 11 PM EST on Wed. 1/23/13. I'm asking the collaborators to jump in with details and additional pics, if possible... Thanks to all involved!

    Of our community and for our community!

    Wyndingo gave up a nice 3.2lb Plumb 2.5 Collins and Treeline did a great job hanging it. The handle is a good length, 15.5" 24" to the bottom of the bit. The sheath is black chap leather.

    Sorry having a conversation while typing and they over lapped.

    Yes

    I was just holding my Plumb thinking that I need to go ahead and order a handle for it.
