T his roofing hatchet measures 17″ long with a 3 1/2″ edge. Marked “C. F. DOWSE,” almost certainly for Charles F. Dowse, one of the partners in Bigelow & Dowse, a Boston hardware dealer in business for almost a century, but this is the only piece of evidence I’ve found that Dowse made his own tools. Could be his, or something he sold. Quite an intriguing item. Head firmly set on handle. ALL ITEMS SHIPPED VIA USPS WILL BE SENT INSURED!
