    This impressively large French Sapeur's Axe is one of the many variations which date from the French Napoleonic First Empire Era. This particular one wears a fabulous large Axe Head that measures 13 inches across with a cutting edge of 7 3/4 inches and the pike length, including the socket 12 3/8 inches in length! The actual pike head measures 7 3/4 inches by 1 3/4 inches at its widest and has a small bend at its extreme tip which could be remedied in the right hands. The Axe Head overall has survived in superb original condition and has no sharpening. The large wooden shaft measures 35 1/2 inches in length and remains in superb original condition as well with all of its original painted finish still beautifully present. The shaft wears a brass boot that remains excellent in its condition as well. Overall the Axe measures from pike tip to boot 45 inches in length. Weighs in excess of 7 1/2 pounds.
