This antique trio of hatchets represents the evolution of small axe design from the late 1800s through the mid-1900s. The left hatchet is an antique carpenter’s or shingling hatchet from the early 1900s to 1930s, featuring a nail notch and flat hammer end once used for fine carpentry and roofing work. Its straight handle and solid head were crafted for precision cutting and nailing. The center hatchet, a broad or hewing style from the late 19th to early 20th century, has a wide offset blade used for smoothing logs and beams in traditional joinery and timber framing. Its handmade replacement handle shows genuine workshop wear and adds authentic character. The right hatchet, an antique sportsman’s or camp model from the 1940s to 1950s, features a compact head and short curved handle with reinforced grip, typical of midcentury outdoor tools sold through hardware stores and outfitters. Together, these antique hatchets reflect the craftsmanship and practicality of early toolmaking, making them a perfect addition for collectors, woodworkers, or rustic home and cabin décor.
