I really enjoyed watching this. Thanks for sharing.
You know it's a good video when it's midsummer here in Sweden and I'm inside watching this instead of being outside where the party is. Skål!
Glad to see another vid out. Excited for when you move into the new workshop
yeah me too!
And again a nice project. Thank you for sharing!!
Kiitos.nice demonstration of various tools and return to function of your felling axe and no music
Thank you very much! I'd never use music!
Excellent work!!!! She's a beauty!
Thank mate!
Enjoyed and gave a Thumbs Up
Если есть горн и навыки кузнечного ремесла, то есть смысл оттянуть лезвие, или нарастить сваркой. Там явно уже несколько сантиметров сточено....А так хороший колун получился. Лайк.
Nice work. A+!
There have not been any commercials for a long time ... I waited very much ... and as always everything is great !!! Definitely like !!!
Thank you very much sir!
Good job! 👍👍👍
Thank you!
Impressive work! Teach yourself, or learn from a master craftsman
Great job looks awesome
Good, but I would have gone with the more traditional straight handle instead of the splitting axe handle
Edit: forgot to mention, how good of a job you did, it's good to see these old axes be restored, I even have one that I need to replace the handle of. It broke while I was making some fire wood
I thought that handle looked very straight, the traditional handle sweeps back a little, then back again so the bottom of the handle and blade meet at a certain spot when you put a straight line between them www.trapperman.com/forum/attachments/usergals/2015/05/full-2820-281028-image.jpg
Never thought about using a welder to get excess material to work with thats awesome asf
If you weld the hammer the edge cooled in water, no forging is needed.
Ha! A ruler tattoo. Awesome.
That's a beautiful axe I would love to try one out
Just watched a second video; you do wear safety equipment, my apologies. Also your skills with a draw Knife are rare to see. Kudos!
Love it
Hello :) I'm restoring a Billnäs 12.3 at the moment, and I would like to ask about the tempering you made on this one. Did you just tempered in the forge or did you use the oven? If so, how hot and for how long did you set it in? Very cool video!
Very nicely done. Love it. 18 whole minutes of Make N' Create!😀
Also, I've never heard of a billnäs axe before, so what is it? Is it a brand, or a type of axe? (Like, a type with an extra rectangle on the back) And what is the extra rectangle for?
its a finnish axe brand. i thinks its type 12.3, made in 1945-1960
Billnäs was one of a few forges that made kirves(axes) in Finland. They are probably the best known outside of Finland. They became Fiskars, the brand we know today.
The preferred forge in Finland was Kellokoski/Mariefors Bruk, but Billnäs made fantastic axes nonetheless.
What oil do you use for quenching?
Thanks in advance.

I love axe ye
After every video, you should give us your opinion on the build. For example if you are happy with the way it turned out, were there mistakes, in for example the hanging, or are you going to use the axe , just some further information.
Anyways, awesome channel bro, keep it up
Good job on that #12.3?
Where can I get one? I would love to begin a collection of tools that I also use
Nice man I just got one of those to kinda hard and expensive to get here in the states
Here too, bought a couple off of ebay. Thank you!
Kitos...Ihana!
I live about a mile from Billnäs.
Класс!

@@iltoni6895 if you know history it is hilarious 🤣
@@iltoni6895 yes its funny as fuck 😂😂😂
Ahh Tovarich , the cuckoo's in the tree's are shooting at us !!!!
What kind of weld is that? You did an awesome job bringing that axe to life!
Lovely axe, shame on whoever mistreated it before.
Yup, looks as if it was used as a wedge.
Was wondering where to get one of those? And what would you use it for mainly? Trying to get a collection of tools
i have to ask that why didn't you shape the hammer side by forging the steel while heating it to fix the eye profile? I've done so many times, and at that time the hammer side of the weight remains intact ..
good job mate
Thank you!
What kind of wood do you use for the handles? Amazing craftsmanship. These videos get me motivated and ready to hang axes. Also do you prefer soft wood or hard wood for your wedges?
Typically Birch was used
Nice viedeo
thanks!
What kind of grinder do you use?
Absolutely love your work, by the way

You need few axes to make an axe, too bad for the one who had to make the first 😁
Suomi mainittu! Torilla tavataan🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮
Describe the wedge process
Yay your back
Indeed!
Love your channel 💕
If you need an axe to make an axe than how was the first axe ever made
christopher dean um how do you think you idiot? someone obviously made one WITHOUT an axe

Damn daniel

👍 видимо прошлый хозяин топора им по пьяни рубил
You r good
GOD /LAIK
Do you pre heat your oil before you quench, they say you should. And why split the end where the axe is going for the wedge with a chisel, why not cut it. Won't there be a possibility of a split going all the way along the grain of the wood. Nice Job though.
Splitting it is a traditional way, and as long as you are carefull you really cant split it all the way.
Топорище нужно было перед насадкой топора в воде прокипятить!
Where have you been?! 😀
He has been moving houses
I've been in the UK for a couple of days and then in Canada for about 3 weeks!
Все хорошо, но я хз, как такой топор в реальной жизни использовать.
is the ruler on your arm accurate?
yup!

Thanks for making a tool, not a piece of "art"
Thr axe is Swedish . Perkele!
Wandering Tall Guy it's not mai boi
No it's finnish mate!
Make N' Create , they looks nearly the same, so for some people it is kinda complicated to distinguish Finnish and Swedish collared axes...

Billnäs is swedish no finnish
Nonsense. It’s here in Finland www.visitraseborg.com/en/see-and-experience/castles-villages/billnas-village/
@@petrisandberg3887 oh. Nice IT IS from Finland But Name is swedish.
And i from Finland so I proud Finnish hand Works👍💪🇫🇮 Perkele
How did I get here I was just watching a guy build a pool in the woods
I see you usually have a hard time splitting wood, you should forge a froe
Anyway great restoration, thanks for sharing
Not at all. Just went gentle so I had more control. Thank you!
Always great to see a hand hewn axe haft! Possibly next time lightly burn the wood with a torch to bring out contrast in the grain..really looks good after the wood is oiled. Really great job!
Nice save.
These old kirves used a soft iron for the main body and considering the situation of the average farmer on Finland, these axes were worked hard!
The Swedes dropped collared axe production in the early 1900s, but the Finns continued to manufacture them up through the 1970s.
Fantastic axes when you understand their method of use and the environment they were made for.
Why have a froe when you can have an axe that does the same work?
Топор был не горелый,зачем заново закалял,заводскую термичку испортил.
What kind of weld is that? You did an awesome job bringing that axe to life!
мягкое дерево будет быстро гнить
I missed you. Is very good to see you again
Nice work 👍
Very good restoration axe 👍👍👍👍
Thank you!
I have seen and read that the tradition method calls for boiling the handle tenon in water for 30-60 minutes to soften the wood, then you split it after it's already in the head, but I wondered how it would go if the wood was left dry; seems to have worked well.
I am trully in love with your vids. You are awesome.
Thank you very much!

Man you should make a Frankish throwing axe.
Man, just a question.
It isn't dangerous to tremping your axe in oil, knowing that your box can fall, deliber the oil content and burning your workshop ?
It's just a question, I'm not a blacksmith. But I'm not 100% sure that's safe.
Moreover, did you use the sapwwod for your axe handle ? It isn't better to use the hard heartwood ?
Anyway, your restauration is really great. Thanks for sharing !
Greetings from France
Most certainly is! I get a better shot of it on top of the anvil though so I'm willing to take the chance :) Sapwood is more flexible and not a brittle as hardwood. So it's better suited handles. Thank you very much!
@@MakeNCreate Thanks for your answer.
However, I just want to tell you this true story. I know a guy who has a workshop with clay floor. His ground contained mechanical oil and hydrocarbon. One day, he cutted metal, and because of the sparks, his workshop caught fire. And he was burned very badly. The surgeons did a very good job, but he kept marks.
That was just to tell you to be really careful, especially with burning oil.
Anyway, that was a realy great video.
Thanks for answered me.
See you next !
PS : If you want, I have some ideas for video. As making a crossbow (with tremping and tempering the spring), or forging an historic sword or a cavalery saber ...
What for wood to you use? Thanks for your reponce.
I'd assume it is ash
Skills 👍

I have not seen the video yet. But I just know it is going to be a good one.
