Looks great! can't wait to see it, really like the overall shape
Thanks for all the positive feedback!
it weighs in at 13.5kg with the axe head fitted, so we are in the limit - just!
Some more pics in a more-or-less finished state:

The event was great fun, and I learned a lot being there - including lots of ways I can improve Battleaxe. It's quite a list of things, but the most obvious being, the type of mild steel I used isn't up to being spinner (or more precisely, 722) proof.
I will probably repair this properly and keep Battleaxe 1 running for a while, whilst work gets under way on a new version

Blimey, that looks used. A bit of metalworking to be done there.

What happen to the axehead as I do not see it in any of the bouts. Where you overweight or something ?
No, it's there bar the last whiteboard fight. I did want to go larger, but yes weight stopped that. I'm designing the new one to be bigger and have better impact
