Buckin, I am a 21 year old young man and I have always felt that I needed diversity and novelty in my life, and more when it comes to my work. It is so assuring, and refreshing to see you with your never ending, youthful enthusiasm doing all of these fun and cool things. You do it all with such a genuine, and positive attitude. You teach everything you do, and to pass your knowledge on is a gift to us, and yet possibly even more importantly the way you share your wisdom with us when it comes to life. The simple yet perfect philosophy of being a good person for goodness sake(and everything that comes along with it). To accept and adapt to the things that annoy me (or worse, affect me to my detriment), it has been pacifying to my stresses and anxiety that I allow in my mind. Keep on doing what you love man, stay healthy, be well.
Thank you for this information, I always cleaned my axes with rubbing alcohol then oiled the bit followed up by a wiping of linseed or flaxseed oils, zero varnish or wax. In a real pinch vegetable oil will work, but needs cleaning off in a shorter time

Billy! I just want to tell you that, in this struggle of life that is going on in the world today, you are a dream and a blessing to watch! Been watching you for the last 2 months and what a ride brother! Learned so much that I can now carry on.
Binge on Buckin then carve out your own drum sticks. If knot to play just for whittle of the wood. Big Buckin fan here, buck-private in the Buckin Army. Enjoy some of the last 6 years of content... Greatest show on earth. True insight into the Woodman and his life. Love this dude. It is a blessing that he is alive and we are blessed to be able to experience through the digital airwaves. Yes times are tough, but they've always been rough, and once you've had enough then come see Buckin Billy Ray and he will guide you into a busy versatile mindset of love/kindness/work.
Awesome intro Buckin. Great description and showing of different patterns. Love the explanation on what makes them work well and what they will work best for. Thank you sir. Hello Buckin Army you rock. Love ya brother🌲❤🌲✊🪓
Morning from the Okanagan sir! Good stuff as usual on the profiles. Last year buddy gifted me a bigger HB Hudson Bay axe that his late father bought in the '70's and never used much. Upon close inspection I saw it was actually a hollow grind, so that led me to trying a few different heads with a hollow grind to see what I could learn. They don't seem to spit as well as expected, but I'm thinking they cut "a bit" better than a convex. Likely not enough to make a difference, but it's an interesting rabbit hole to head down. Stay well.
Old timers in my family used to tell me when they wanted to take a break from sawing they’d pick up an axe. I thought that was like a funny joke or exaggeration like walking up hill to school both ways kinda thing until I actually picked up a cross cut saw.
Nice video Buckin, thank you for the patch and sticker I received with my 4 tee shirts. that I ordered last week. Christine is doing a fantastic job getting them out super fast. Got my eye on a few hoodies fall is coming up fast I'll be ordering them soon. I bought an axe last week. It does a great job on the small wood. But not very effective in the bigger wood down at the base of the trunk. Thank you again Buckin
Good evening Buckin. Just caught up to this video. Was notified of it and had to save it. I'm just diggin your videos, please sir keep them coming. Thank you and God bless you and your family.
Thanks for showing the different profiles. I am starting to understand the pros and cons of each. Now I need get my files and practice the different profiles. It will take me a little time, but I will understand it when I get it right. Will be waiting for the ah ha moments when I get it.
Your content has been wonderful! Heard a beautiful quote the other day...."Love is a verb, not a noun"! Could spend some time thinking about that, eh??? Love you all....❤️❤️❤️ Lieutenant Bradley
hi buckin, i wish you a happy weekend,buddy! btw, the rubber boots go great with the shorts, hahaha! greetings to all the newcomers and oldtimers on the channel and a nice weekend to you all! see you tomorrow in buckins bunker!
Lovin that movie trailer intro!!!!! I hear you on work variety. I’m a self employed carpenter, I do all kinds of renovation services. All the tasks I’m interested in doing, I aim to master. I enjoy striving to perfection. When I achieve perfection, I strive to get perfection with consistently, when I achieve consistency, I strive to get consistency efficiently. The game never ends, I am grateful for all the progresses I make, obtaining great tools and have fun making things of beauty. I say, fall in love with the process, and you will eagerly rise to every challenge.
Billy, It’s cool to see the Killinger French curve handles as well as the ones you make from boards. I had a old school bushman great uncle who used to make them out of black ash bolts my dad would get him from the bush. He would split them by hand with wedges the use a fro to slab off pie shaped pieces he would make the handles out of with a draw knife. His handles were skinny, curvy and strong with very little run out. All the best from Ontario
You got my 10 year old twin boys out sharpening our axes in the garage and trying them out on junk trees on the homestead. Thanks for the great, educational and inspirational content.
Holy cow, twin ten year old boys with axes....? You could have the whole neighborhood chopped down in a week. Keep them on the junk trees please. 😊 If your anything like Buckin your boys will grow up strong and well versed in many things. All the best to ya Daddio-bear...
@@jirusjirus9322 they chipped all the bark off a 12'×20" poplar log before we milled on my bandsaw mill. They've been using axes for a few years. Very supervised
My storage situation gets pretty damp in the winter and condensation happens. When I oil the handles(danish oil or linseed or teak oil) I also give a light coat to the metal parts, it cures on the metal into a nice anti-rust coating that doesn't pick up dirt, same for my pruners and handsaws. It wears of where rubbing happens but those spots don't need protection anyway. For sap I use something like turpentine or kerosene/paint thinner with small fraction of the same oil. Now, the fun bit of chemistry is that Watco Danish oil is a mix of linseed oil(or was it tung?) with a few percent modified rosin (Esterified, aka reacted with an alcohol using a catalyst); rosin is the solid stuff left after you boil the turpentine out of pine pitch. Boiled linseed has a tiny dash of cobalt and manganese added to catalyze faster curing. Teak oil is either linseed or tung oil with UV protection. Esterfied rosins are also used in bar oil to make them more tacky. (And many other uses in adhesives, coatings, even making wax more pliable. But there are many different alcohols used for different properties.)
I was looking to get an axe for felling and splitting on the homestead. The deeper I got, the more I discovered there's a ton I dont know about axes!! Your videos are great! Started looking at the more vintage axeheads rather than just buying one made on a current production line.. Still lots to learn.
I'm definitely starting to respect there's different axes for different jobs. I like a maul, but when I pick up a old HB Tassie I love it. I've snapped 2 handles recently. I've learnt the hard way but no I know 👍 I'll probably use my maul to split in half and then go after it with the HB after Nice video as always!
The Killinger “Snake Juice” is thick and amazing! On handles and the head it looks amazing. Also, the bottles are small but it’s thick and I’ve done 10 handles and the bottle still full. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge Billy!
Medium steel wool is great for removing sap from heads and handles.👍 Over winter I cover the heads with a light coat of clean motor oil or general purpose oil like 3 in 1.
Ha ha... Leave him in the dust or jump on the bus" RUclips is great and Buckin Billy is great and it blew me away how many folks he has responded to. I'm still a buck-private in the Buckin Army. Glad your aboard the bus.
My job when I turned 6 was to split wood for the house ,stove and heater. We’d cut it to length with my dad on a saw bench ran by the tractor. People say I have big hands and broad shoulders, probably why.
Doctor Billy Ray Smith, I want to thank you for all of your chainsaw, I mean power saw, chain sharpening videos. This past Thursday I removed a stump with my power saw, wedges and sledge hammer. I usually like to burn out my stumps, but this one literally sat in the middle of my wood pile and burning it out was not an option. I dug out from around the stump but still managed to knock the point off of the tooth. I must have sharpened my chain 6 times (nothing left at this point). Anyway, I recalled how you talked about getting the gullet and then pulling up on the file to sharpen the chisel side of the tooth. I could literally watch the edge of the tooth curl into a wire and then the point would come right back. After figuring this out, I would head back to the stump and watch the long sawdust come rolling out of the cut. Thank you once again - cheers
If you would, when talking about , showing Tassies. Tell what they are. I have a HYTEST Craftsman from the 1950s that looks like one you were showing. I'm hesitating going below 25° bit bevel on my tassies due to living in Interior Alaska. The Cold and not wanting to chip or break a bit on a fine old axe. But I do get tired of then not being multi purpose. I have a HYTEST Forged that is 25°or less that I will try . Hope I don't chip it ! I run 30" or 29" handles mostly.
Hey buddy have ya seen the Stihl large splitting AXE ? It’s a beast weight wise but a great splitter for the hard stuff. For a few years my buddy from Montana always uses it in Elk hunting camp And just loves it ! Ya definitely need to profile it loose some material and sharpen it , but man it’s a brute has a wrap around steel handle guard that’s not just for looks ya see. I’ve had one for 5 yrs and last October I tried to give mine to him as he burns wood living in Montana and loves the axe . He refused to take it and said he’d just buy one . I said yeah ya can do that but it’s not the same as stock and won’t be the same . So when we were packing up camp I snuck in the back of his truck . “Spread the Love “ I Just purchased a new one and will be profiling, sharpening, removing some material taking the stupid lacquer/paint off . I understand why the Manufacturers put a finish for the store shelves but man ya think just a light coat lol . I’ll be sanding and oiling the handle with linseed oil or Balistol .I appreciate the knowledge you spread and the love ! Keep Swing , DS
I think back in the day that all metal tools had a light coat of oil and waxpaper wrap for transportation and storage. That new lacquer finish is a pain to remove.
Glad to see you doing good buckin. Ya it’s hot everywhere. I noticed it is getting very hard to find a good cruiser double bit axe. Or any double bit. How do you find yours being on an island.
Are sharpen my split necks on the very end so I can pick up wood and yet I don't sharpen the rest of it quite as much but I do sharpen all my axes and splitting walls and my steel splitting ax I sharpen the crap out of that so it does a very good job of splitting and chopping by the way I love your show it's always positive I find it very educational
Thats right buckin. Iv ben doing that more and more lately. I try to support like minded businesses with the same moral standards. I wish I didn't but the otherside is more than they ever have.
Hey Buckin I gotta Titan Series 40 chainsaw from back in the 50s. Handle on the bar for the second guy. If you think it would make a good fixup video, I let you have it for free...just shipping costs. Motor free and has loads of compression, but no spark.Think it needs a coil.
hey first let me say that I love all your stuff and your vibe. Now I have a question for you Im looking for a good axe. It will be my first real axe if I can say so. I got a fiskar spliting axe. Do you have any recomandation for me. I will use it mostly for spliting but If a can get an all around axe I would love it. Thank you very much
Buckin, could you do a video on how to keep handles from warping? I have a few that I have to keep in my shed while I’m away and I’m worried they will warp super bad.
Do the axes you make split as well as a fiskars axe? Or possibly better? What are your thoughts on those?. I love the look of the ones you make but i would be affraid of busting the wooden handle. With the fiskars i dont have that worry.
Ha ha... There's a ban on the power saw band... Good call, the more axe work the better the workout. Buckin sometimes reminds me of another guy with 4 names. Buckin Billy Ray Smith Jean Claude Van Dam
Billy AKA Buckin..You might want to do an axe training type video for the youngsters..Proper stance.swing. safety concerns etc so they dont think its ok to go out and free swing axes..You have experience and control but im afraid some of these kids watching you might think its ok to just free swing an ax that might be too heavy for them.. Just an observance since i trained others in equipment use..Thanks Brother... :)
Hey buckin' can you make a video on how to get the proper axe. Handle lenght and weight for a person? Lots think a longer handle and heaviest axe head is the way to go!
Just started thinking about that recently. The different size /weight /age of a person can be a good reason to be having smaller handle or lighter axe. Custom fit for larger hands or taller faller.

With the powersaw band up your way all that chopping is putting little extra muscle mass on ya. Get it!
Ha ha... There's a ban on the power saw band...
Good call, the more axe work the better the workout.
Buckin sometimes reminds me of another guy with 4 names.

Billy AKA Buckin..You might want to do an axe training type video for the youngsters..Proper stance.swing. safety concerns etc so they dont think its ok to go out and free swing axes..You have experience and control but im afraid some of these kids watching you might think its ok to just free swing an ax that might be too heavy for them.. Just an observance since i trained others in equipment use..Thanks Brother... :)
Even me an oldster will want to free swing my axe and if i chop my foot it becomes even more of a learning experience... Yikes 😲
Hey buckin' can you make a video on how to get the proper axe. Handle lenght and weight for a person? Lots think a longer handle and heaviest axe head is the way to go!
Just started thinking about that recently. The different size /weight /age of a person can be a good reason to be having smaller handle or lighter axe. Custom fit for larger hands or taller faller.
Hey buckin would you be interested in working on a papa el cedro axe ? I tried hanging it finally and it looks horrible
Any recommendations for splitting in Australia, the timber here is next level tough
im on my way
lol
😂😅
Yes, we hear that Aussy wood is hard stuff. Gotta work twice as hard to split.
How about when it good and dry. Does that make a difference...?
@@jirusjirus9322 surprised to hear that when it's green it's easier 😅
💥BOOOOM💥. LOL
Peanut Butter also takes off sap AND it’s great on sandwiches too. Who knew?
Have you used hornbeam for ax handle's
little bit of baby powder on that axe head after polising helps it sleep better.
