WI Barn Antique Cast Iron Axe Head Marked "KNOTKLIPPER" "Mann Lewistown, PA"

Description: The handle on this one wasn't worth saving or paying the extra shipping on. Very nice axe head with a bit of history with it. The Mann Edge Tool Co. was formed just about the same time that Joseph R. Mann formed what was known as Joseph R. Mann & Co. Joseph had had considerable experience in the manufacturer of axes and when the American Axe & Tool Co. was formed he signed on, along with a number of other men from the Mann family as a whole. Both businesses were located in Lewistown starting in 1892. It could be that Mann Edge Tool Co. was the actual company chartered by the State of Pennsylvania and the actual principals were those that comprised Joseph R. Mann & Co. This particular one is stamped "KNOTKLIPPER WARRANTED" on one side and the other is hard to ready parts of it. I will try to explain. "Mann" is very clear on it and what I believe the next word to be is "Tool" with something else behind it. "Lewistown, PA" is very clear! It measures 7" long x 4 1/4" wide on the axe end. The handle end is 3" wide. Weighs 3.3 lbs Any REASONABLE offers will be considered! Please examine ALL pictures carefully since I do NOT accept returns. Most of my items are found at many of the farms going out of business or retiring from farming. I will describe them to the best of my knowledge. If have any additional questions, please feel free to contact me. If, after you receive item, it does not meet your expectations, please contact me. Also worth mentioning, since many of my items are big and bulky, I do recycle/reuse/resize cardboard.
