Adze-eye Cutter mattock

 

  Anyone have one of these?  I got this from my dad after he passed (8/4/09 ) along with a an old double bit axe, a small hand pick, small hatchet and regular axe.  I had it pushed back into a corner in my shed, and forgot about it till yesterday. 
  The cutting business end does remove wood, as I tried it on a cut piece of oak log.  Will I be using to cut a tree down? No, but I suspect it'll chew up some roots! 
  I'll be taking a wire brush to it to clean it up some, and hit the blades with file first to clean up the edges, then put them to stones to hone them up.
  Am curious if anyone has one, what you use it for?

Cool! You are on a run with revitalizing these old tools.
I'm diggin it

Appears to be a  fire line tool called a Pulaski. Used for grubbing line and stobbing small trees and branches.  Used to tool up and work my ass off on fire line when I was younger.  Now I like being on my engine. 

Wish mine had the axe.
