My new Hatchet

[Wes]

I found a camp axe/hatchet at a antique shop. What caught my eye was the US on the head so I bought it. The axe is in decent shape but some former owner used it as a hammer and there is some mushrooming. The other side has a emblem like a crown, and some writing on either side. The only word I can make out is Arkansas. No date is visible. Any help?
