I just nominated this to the banner and I hope everyone else who views this does the same. If that Axe isn't a banner worthy find then nothing is. That is one of the finest field found Axes I have ever seen.

Congratulations on an awesome find and thanks for the pictures.

Very nice artifact.  YOUR find of the year would beat most, but not everyones. LOL  Just giving you a hard time.  I have been fortunate to find a few of these great relics.  10,000 complete arrowheads were probably made for every axe that was (Berner).  Congrats on your banner find!
