A white adhesive label marked Lot 029 is attached to the base of the felling axe handle. The smaller hatchet features a curved wooden handle decorated with two bands of green paint around the centre. The handles are crafted from a straight-grained hardwood, consistent with ash or hickory. Both heads are hung using traditional methods. No maker stamps are clearly visible on the oxidized steel surfaces.
