I thought you would be thinking of one of the smaller like the "Fist"
But true to form - you have expensive tastes @Frodo :-)
You choose nearly the top two just under the Butcher and the splitter - the Colun

Details are:

Fist

The total length is 260 mm
Head weight 900 grms
Head depth 170 mm.

Finnish Mini

Steel - SHK15.
The handle is ash, impregnated with Tung oil.
To reduce the grip of the wood, the blade is sanded "in satin."
Head depth 85 mm.
The head weighs 600 grams.
The total length is 390 mm.
