That makes for an awesome photograph!! I'd be enlarging that and framing it and hanging it the Man-Cave!!!!

Cheers

I must be mis-judging the scale of the pic. I thought it looked too large to be a hand tool. I know men were men back then. :laughing:

I did the same thing.

Another good one. Any idea how long it's been there?

Back in the mid 1960s my dad and I cut and haul firewood from this area.
Look what I found just a couple of days ago.

Absolutely amazing... to think it has been sat there 50 odd year or so waiting for you to come back :tree:

The big question is - are you going to reclaim it for your shed, or simply leave it be for your kids / grandkids / greatgrandkids to visit in another 50 or maybe 100 years...?

Great pic & wonderful photo - thanks for sharing :thumbsup:

My vote would be to leave it.

Pretty interesting, seen many objects grown into trees as I spent a lot of time in woods and exploring as a kid. Not much different now other than I move a WHOLE lot slower

My mother in law has some ancient trees on her property with cannonballs in them from the Civil War. Were still visible when she was a kid, but have long since grown over. You can definitely make out the lump and weird patterns in the bark though.

I found three wornout pulp hooks like these stuck into a hemlock tree on a property line, of about the same vintage as the OP's.
Sawmill operators have all sorts of stories of things found in logs; which is why they won't knowingly buy residential trees.
Then there are the eco-nuts who drive spikes into trees to endanger the life of anybody trying to harvest them...
