Bought this at an antique show yesterday. I don't collect this type of tool, but couldn't recall seeing one with 2 cutting edges before.
Has anybody seen this type before? Was it used for a particular job?
Doesn't appear to have ever been modified. Is marked in 3 places with makers mark "BV". Normal size range for bowl adzes: straight blade is 4 1/2" wide, and the handle is 7" long overall.
