Never have I seen this technique of throwing your weak hand forward with the chop. Goes against everything I've ever learned. However, your tools are pure sex and this is an incredible demo, Mario.
You definitely want you axe to hit the wood BEFORE your off hand touches down! Still, not a technique I'm likely to ever use myself. That axe, however, makes me want to go find some wood to split just to have an excuse to buy one!!!
I love these artfully crafted tools that have serious working capability. Ill be picking one up for my spring processing season. Im tired of dealing with automated splitters. Back to the basics i go.
Superb axe in skilled hands. Would prefer to see the block that is being chopped kept more stable, though. This axe is a 'brute' and a fine piece of craftsmanship. That much is self evident.
My Stihl saw is 21 years old, and performs really good every year(about 50-80 cubic meters of firewood). But fiskars... I got 35 years old splitting maul from local smith and another one from GB, and fiskars x27, and about twenty other axes. I definitely don't like fiskars, but i see why people like it. You just take it and do the work done, and leave it outdoor... And never care about it. And sharpen it once a year. Good value for the money, but ugly.

I'll be happy to send you some Texas Live Oak.
We have enough our native latvian hard oak!
You've got such lovely timber up there, it always amazes me to see people chopping it up for fire wood.
Bad ass!! I'm ordering one of the polished hunters Axe

***** skills, bruh, skills.
I was doing this on a scout camp when I was 13. With a wooden mallet. Wood would fracture perfectly
A fine tool if I ever saw one..
I wanna see you forge one of these please. Awesome!
Beautiful piece

Are you making more smithing videos? I love those
SO DO I!
That axe is beautifull, but that tipe of wood is not a challenge, try to chop a rot of olive tree and that will be a real challenge:)
yes, 40 or 50 cm long if is possible of olive tree
Its fire wood. He is not chopping. He is splitting wood for fire.
sexiest thing I have seen all year.
Колун красивый, но такие дрова, да ещё зимой, промороженные, и простым топором колоть одно удовольствие.
That clothing lmao
Wait...wait...I think I hear angels singing
Is the tool or the skill getting the thing done? Is that wood a hard one?Lovely video anyway!!!!
psiconsultorio it's a spruce tree.
Love the handle, but I'm not super into the blade.
Holy crap.
I keep throwing money at the screen but nothing happens........oh wait I need to throw more. $450.00 DAMN. I'll bet it is worth every cent though!
For the price, I can buy a Stihl saw and a Fiskar ax.
Won't last you nearly as long
