    Axe point is a new one on me. i wouldcall that razor shoulderless with a square point.

    i'm wondering if the seller was talkingabour the way the spine is ground at the toe ... it looks like somebody was trying to bring that to a "diamond" shaped point.... i have several shaffield razor with that detail.
    Be just and fear not.

    That all sounds right. I have a couple of square points with that same type of detail. Here's a good pic from one of my SOTDs.
