Antique Ski Pole, Push Stick USFSA This pair of early Norwegian

This pair of early Norwegian transport skis is a very fine example of skis used for recreation and transportation

Sleigh bell straps are adjustable - so these can be used on working horses

hand forged one piece ferrule/spike and a beautifully patinaed pick and adze

That didn't stop us from buying them - as we find that all the above reasons more than overcome the lack of label to make them worthy of any ski lodge or cabin accent

Bells like this adorned cows
