The purpose of the two-headed axe is you can keep one side very sharp with a steep bevel for chopping a tree normally and the other side more dull with not as steep of a bevel for hitting things like roots near the ground where your edge could hit a rock or something. Source: Wacked a tree or two.
Hmmm.. Interesting.
Why not just have two different axeheads then? Or two different axes? Yes, it would be heavier, but you it would be way saver.
@@tomatopotato1136 To my understanding it was popular with loggers and railway workers laying track back in the day. Because it's only you carrying the tools in and out of remote area's and probably needing to switching back and forth rapidly.

Well, you can clearly see the nervousness on his face, nearing embarrassment even before choosing, suggests that he not only failed once before but much more than you would ever expect, so given 3 options you would expect 1/3 to be right with sheer luck, so probably 4-5 created that terror on his face, so im going to guess 21

Fun fact for anyone who sees this. A double bit axe has two blades for a reason other than looking cool. It has to do with edge retention in different materials. One side of the axe is sharpened to a different angle than the other. The sharper of the two sides is for chopping higher up on the tree, where you aren't in danger of smashing your axe into the ground, and the other side is for work closer to the ground, where the different angle is a sturdier edge that won't take as much damage when you invariably clip the ground by accident.

Ididathing: *talks about using a grinder safely*
*proceeds to grind over the top of two jerry cans*
joeystar8888 Assuming those two Jerry cans are filled, there wouldn't really be any real way for a combustion reaction to happen. The toxic-yet-non-volatile fumes that would build up (if there's any space in the can to fill it with gas) would probably ruin the oxygen-gas mixture to cause an explosion. But we don't know how full the can is, nor do we know how thick the cans are. But it's likely that there'd be no way for it to explode if it was full, or if it was empty, would have lost the oxygen-gas mixture a long time ago
It can't hurt me if I don't notice it
Also your not supposed to use gloves with any rotary tools
@Jeffrey Damen for a grinder sure but a lathe a drill press a dremel or a chop saw never. It takes too long to pull the fabric from your wounds after because a glove will not stop those tools
@Spackman Games I thought the exact same. There is a reason that a grinder has a shield so that the sparks don't come and fly on your hands.

The purpose of double bitted axes in history was (likely) primarily for woodchopping, so you could chop until the first got dull, then keep using the other side for a good while before they have to stop to sharpen the blades.
If you ever do something like this again, they make Sticks for welders that create a hardened steel bead. It's neat stuff.

The double headed axe is so if one edge goes dull you don’t have to sharpen it.
The amount of effort is put through his videos. Amazing
The purpose of a double bit axe is that one side is used for things like bark which blunt a sharp edge And the other is saved for wood only. This means you can cut many things with one tool and not worry about blunting it

Using 400 dollars and probably days to make an axe that doesn’t even work well...
That’s why I subscribed
1:55 to answer that
this is because double headed axe are actually much more balanced for swinging around, and the second axe could be more fine tuned for splitting logs vs for cutting down tree
double headed axes, also known as a double-bit, have two blades with two different bevels. One is a thinner bevel to chop into wood easier and to also dig in deeper each cut, while the other is broader to split, making each hit drive the wood further from itself.
Essentially the thinner is for cross cutting while the thicker is for rip cutting/ splitting.

@@devan2462 yah
This is a bit late but the reason lumberjacks have two heads on thier axes is because when one side becomes dull they don’t waste the day walking back to the camp. they just use the other side
Close but not quite, one side is kept sharp for for chopping at waist height away from the ground and the other side ment as a sacrificial edge when chopping close to the ground.
@@codywright6224 Could be either or depending on the overall job at hand. It could really be used for either purpose, which isn't much of a conflict, but a syngergy.
I thought one side was for chopping and the other for splitting.
All you internet experts probably haven't even held an axe, let alone felled a tree with one, bahahaha
@@jangofett7047 of course not. I fuckin googled jt
Bit late but a double headed axe has two heads, they have different edge angles on either side. One side is for stuff like splitting and not sticking as much, that side has a Steeper edge angle, the more shallow side is for biting deep into a tree. To take the chunks out and fell the tree. Essentially a 2 for 1 deal
When I saw him start to drip honey on his keyboard, I just thought, there's NO WAY this is a Honey ad... and it was amazing.
the part where he searches for the pice of iron he already placed there seems a bit like all those "restoring" channels that just "finds" swords laying around everywhere XD
put finds in quotation marks then yes. They did it I'm so happy! :D

God I love the part where that lady is yelling “YAH GARY”
The cup part was so fuckin funny
This is one of the only channels intertaning enough for me to watch the sponsor😂 truly amazing to watch
I love how you left the scale on the ax. I think it looks dope!
The reason some axes have two blades is for woodcutting, one blade is kept extremely sharp for easy felling of a tree, while the other is kept a bit more dull for chopping roots, as striking the ground is a quick way to dull any sharp blade, so one blade is kept a bit more dull.
And clearing off the bark around your cutting area because the bark holds dust and other abrasives which will also dull the blade quickly
well yes, but actually yes
Yeah pretty much for when you are dealing with abrasive material and don't want to have to keep sharpening your good blade.
At least a couple guys here know the truth
Also they can be ground at different angles for different types of work
There is actually a very good reason to have a double headed axe, especially in lumberjack work/logging. Two different heads for two different purposes, instead of carrying around a sharp chopping ace and a dull splitting axe have them both attached to the same handle to save weight and the extra weights helps in the swing.
I do the same routine of noises when I'm inspecting my work. Beautiful.

I love how sarcastic this channel is this is the best channel ever
The reason for a double headed axe: lumberjacks who got paid by the tree actually needed differently ground edges. One was used to remove bark, including moss and maybe little stones and all that, and the other edge had a more flat grind and was solely for cutting the clean wood. Thus allowed them to cut trees down more easily without having to re-sharpen their axes all the time
Oh I though it was for the wii remote strap so you can swing it around like a helicopter in the apocolypse
nice TIL right there!
Get paid by the tree? Why would a tree pay you to cut it down
@@richsterstites can't explain it better, English is not my first language. Per tree?
@@Kleiner_Lutz excellent! im glad others know about this... also the "cleaning bit" would also be used at times to deal with roots. keeping the "work edge" or "front bit" it top shape for the tree felling.

This comment is great.
What's so good about it?
@@khus7253 maybe because its funny(?) just my opinion tho
double headed axes are basically a backup axe. if one blade gets dull in the field, finish your work with the other side then go sharpen your axe
2 headed axes are made so you have 2 sharp parts so when one goes blunt in battle you can just flip it and keep fighting
Not sure if anyone has said this yet, but: “The purpose of the Double Bit Axe head is to have one side razor sharp and the other side more dull and rounded. Use the razor sharp side for chopping and cutting, and use the duller, rounded side for splitting.”
also using the hook on the duller side for hooking into felled trees for dragging it around
I thought it was to balance the weight so that it doesn't feel heavy on one side
I thought it was for battle. So you can swing left to right?

Double headed axes are used for bad and good conditions. One side made for cutting threw bark or close to grond where the cutting edge can get dameged while the other for better conditions like the tree under the bark to keep the cutting edge sharp.

The only historical reference I'm aware if for double headed axes being used for chopping was to give a variety of cutting vs chopping edges on a single tool. By changing the angle of your edge. You can make a more sturdy or more precise edged tool.
