Iron Spiked Belt Axe Trade Tomahawk Early 19th Century

Excellent spiked belt axe. I have a hard time dating these but would guess early 19th century to err on the side of caution; May be late 18th century. Adorned with a total of 21 brass buttons with one missing off of the top. Assembly is nice and tight with just the slightest wiggle likely due to wood shrinkage. A hole is drilled near the butt to tie onto clothing so it wouldn't get lost when tramping through the brush. Measures about 39.5cm. Very nice piece with a good feel to it.
