Thank you! Just like grandfather taught. He worked the lumber camps in Salmon Arm, BC where mom was born. I think every thing grandfather had could be used to shave.
i know its been 10 years! but the songs were made by ken britton and steve slaughter, if you were to want to find the song you need to go to missoula and find steve himself
You don’t want to just throw away your rags that are soaked with linseed oil they will combust in the trash and catch your trash on fire. lay them out flat to dry before disposal or soak them in water before discarding. just wadding them up and throwing them away will cause them to heat up during the drying process and catch fire.
Very Good Video, I just had a Iltis Ox Head 2 3/4 lbs. with a 5" very thin cutting edge, put on a 19" White Hickory Unex handle. I plan on using it as my camp axe. What is your opinion on my new axe, I was thinking the extra weight would same time and energy.
Great video, but SAFETY NOTE: For all his wisdom, and the guy obviously knows a lot, his advice on oily rags is a little sketchy. With oily rags, the danger is in them being wadded up and in a ball where the exothermic reaction causes a potential fire. So don't wad the rags up, as he does, and don't casually throw them over your shoulder onto the shop floor as he does. Take them outside and spread them out flat on a non-flammable surface such as concrete or gravel. Weight them down with small rocks if it's windy. Wait til they dry hard, then discard. The fire potential is gone at that point.
Thank you!

The original, back when the linseed oil on RUclips was still wet! This is still probably the best video on the subject!
So many rainy days season after season showing this to the new seasonals.
Good to see my tax dollars actually paid for some worthwhile information. Thanks for posting.
Reduce your tax dollars enough and these skills will die off.
Tolles Video! Habe einiges gelernt. I learned a lot. Thanks.
hubert, germany
Someone that says proper more than Wranglerstar!
LOL
+Michael StJohn love this comment
Wrangler star learned it from him. This guy actually is “Proper”!
Thank you for this video. I learned alot by watching.
Enjoyed the video. I learned a lot.
What song is that in the start of the film. That's some good music.

Excellent video!
Now that is a great video.
I don't agree with the step wedge because it makes it even tighter. Same thing as using a cross wedge with wood to fill the eye
pt. 2 looks just like our farm truck. Wish I had it!
So much bad how-to on RUclips, so much good accurate information in this video series!!
Priceless video...and I'm a city dude.
Axes should have convex edges as he said. A slight outward curve to the edge. What a great video full of info.
cool...cool....and cool !

What's wrong with driving in an extra metal wedge for hanging the axe?
+Simon Jacobs You stand a chance of splitting your handle.
nothing I think. I have tried without the metal wedge and the wooden wedge tend to work its way out slowly when used

"AWAY from the edge, AWAY from the edge, AWAY from the edge, or INTO the edge". so which is it? how about TOWARDS the edge.
Almost need a translator. This guy uses some weird words and phrases.
