I found this photo on the internet describing it as an axe from Sutton Hoo. It does not look like any museum photos of the large "axe hammer" I have found elsewhere. Is anyone familiar with it?

Hmm I am not certain that this image is really of an axe found in Sutton Hoo burial... looks much later to me. |

Hmmmm.... I do not know of that axe being related to the Sutton Hoo finds... The British Museum simply lists it as Anglo-Saxon.
