    I love the fact that I'm not the only person who builds these axes, and stuff. I've never gotten tired of it. I have a few new stones I found for working with when summer gets here. For now, I'm just my regular, knitting etc. btw this fella gave his axe lots of love into the crafting of it. I make crude stuff just for use if I need it. Using a tong stick to pinch and bine the rock. This guy here did a better job than me. Great video nice capture angles. I need to put more effort into things lols

    I love this channel. That turned out really well. The chopping was pretty good too wasn’t it? Nice work. Inspiring as always to get back out again! Thanks

    Really nice stuff! Worked like a charm. Looking forward for future builds. Perhaps a spear? :0)))

    really nice job ! How fast do you think you could make it ?
    would it be possible to make a axe in a single day or even faster if you do nothing else ?

      In a place like this, with such an abundance of rocks, I'm confident I could make an axe head in a day. But I would need another day for the handle (finding a suitable branch, chopping it off and shaping the grip using the axe head as a handheld tool, and making the hole either with fire or with a stone chisel).

    Interesting. You should try flint pecking stones, they work great and resharpen during use. Pecking with flint is what the old timers also did. Grinding is also faster without the sand, as you just spent energy and friction crushing and rolling the sand to dust. Also when pecking, it is good to put the wristwatch aside ...
