Hey guys, long time lurker here, decided to ask a question.
I picked up this pretty much unused Norlund "Tomahawk" the other day and noticed a weird thing going on with the Butt/Poll. It has a straight line ridge going down the middle, which makes it useless for pounding stuff unless I grind it down.
Is this normal? Did someone forget to grind it flat at the factory?
Also, It has a STEEP SHORT bevel that I hate. Is this how they came from the factory, so you can sharpen it yourself? Whats the best way to fix it?
Thanks!
