That certainly looks possible, does that indicate/say anything about date and area of origin?

Interesting suggestion; a smith called (last name) Farenc, with a workshop in Bedarieux.
Browsing on the city, the only possible connection found is a restaurant, called La Forge, converted from a XVII century forging workshop. Possibly nothing to do with Farenc's axe.

Fun though to speculate. I think I will keep this one after all.
