It does look French! Like a French executioner's ax. The ax even has a barber's notch.

My inspiration was my W&B Faux Frameback. The monkey tail is all De Pew.

Nice! I thought it more a hybrid of the Thiers Issard 69 and the De Pew tail, but the barbers notch makes it more W&B'ish. Interesting. Can't wait to see that one finished.
