Posting here because it's such a great gift:

Got an axe handle from my buddy (known each other since kindergarten times). One of 4 he got from his mother. She got them from her uncle before he passed who hand made them, and had passed them on to her because he didn't trust them to anyone else. Now I have one.

Anyone have any recommendations for a quality are head to put on it?

Looks good, hardware store axe handles aren’t going to have a nice profile on them like that. That’s a serious handle, maybe the guy who made them spent a lot of time with an axe in his hands.
You’re in Canada right? These guys sell hand made axe heads that would probably top that off nicely - depending on the size of that handle. I think all these heads are mid sized.

Excellent, thanks for the reference bro.

I would find a blacksmith who can make a handmade high carbon folded steel head. Might as well go all out!
