Here's some photos of the Norlund hatchet I recently purchased from a
fellow galoot:

The wider metal wedge hammered in nicely, but I could not for the life of
me get the longer, narrower wedge to drive in. I guess it doesn't matter,
because the wood wedge locked the hatchet head onto to the handle super
tight (so I probably didn't need either metal wedge). But it got me
wondering - where does one purchase different shaped/sized metal wedges?
