You look at what it costs HB to buy the raw steel , the energy it costs to run that factory, all the people that draw a Wage from working there. Even before a handle gets put on it and then to a retailer who gets there cut..... $150 for an axe in the right hands that can last a lifetime time is really not too much to ask ...quite cheap when you take it all in... Thank you HB for accommodating our two friends.
Not only that these things can and should be passed down generations as they make an amazing heirloom! imagine inheriting a chinese made shitty axe or going through your dads shed and finding one of these!!
Well said. It was absolutely amazing to watch. I was already sold on HB. Just seeing this solidifies the quality and craftsmanship. I'll be a customer of theirs for life!
A big thank you to Hultafors, that was a rare insight to a fabulous and historic Swedish company, and well done for recognising such a powerful brand and letting it focus on what it has done so well for so many years. Thank you.
Hi Buckin. What a wonderful video. You did a great job and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Too bad we couldn't have seen more . What a beautiful place to work at. I mean the grounds were beautiful. The people were very gracious to show you around for half a day. Great people. Can't wait for the Husqavarna tour. Also thanks for Shawshank Tim for bringing you over to Sweden. You guys are having a blast.
I can feel ya faster heart beat down to here - I'm sooooo happy that everything is running so well for all of you - THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH for sharing - Mach Daddy
Buckin, I am enjoying your trip to Sweden nearly as much as you are. A major portion of my ancestory is from Sweden and it has been interesting so many of the places you visited are places my ancestors resided in prior to migrating to the United States at the turn of the century. Have a great trip and adventure so we can follow along with you, it's fantastic! Nick, North West Farmer
Brother. You deserve this. You are an incredible person. Thanks a ton for thinking about us and taking us along with you. I know you think of others, but remember to just have fun.
Very cool that would be such an awesome place to see in person, the country is beautiful. I can't wait to see the Husqvarna factory! I have 3 huskies and a jonsered can't wait!
I worked and retired from Chrysler in which 9 yrs. was working in the forging plant making axels and other front end parts using large steam hammers and forging presses , so anything having to do with this this process peaks my interest . I could just as easily have chosen forestry or tree work or something along those lines if given the opportunity . Loving your channel from Indiana
Forging has always been really interesting to me!! Thank you fellas, for taking us along on the tour👍👌 I can't wait to get my hands on an arvika!!!! Love to you and the family❤️
Awesome Tour !!!!!! Thanks HB for your Hospitality shown to all of us here on the channel Eh. Special thanks to lenard and Knut for sharing your time and kindness ...🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪
That was awesome my friend,What an amazing place to be in,from start to finish those people are so nice and to give the whole history was much appreciated,I'm so glad you and Tim were there that was awesome and it all started with the water just like the tree's do..Thank you so much for that..Take Care..
Sitting here giggling, chuckling and laughing to myself...it's sooo fun to see the excitement and interest you have for what you two, Lord Buckington and Shawshank, are experiencing on your way across Sweden. Really neat stuff to see how the axes are made, even though we can't see the whole process, which is understandable. Looking forward to your visit to Husqvarna!
Amazing video I have always wanted to see their factory. I absolutely love hultafors axes they are in my opinion the best in the world. If Hultafors is reading this please always keep doing what your doing because it just works! Great video thanks for taking us along
Thanks Buckin. That looks like a cool place. So glad you got to take a tour. What a good bunch of people you had to show you around. Can’t wait to get my hands on an Arvika now for sure!!
Billy, You Tube friends that HB axe factory for my is mind blowing. Sweden great country. super video I enjoy every min .Meany thanks everyone doing this. Jacek UK
What a Great Channel! I can be over there, over here, over there, over here, hear☺ lessons from yesterday help get me through the day! Great Stuff Ol' Buddy
I have a hultafors bushcraft axe and it's absolute quality! It's small enough to fit in backpack and big enough for bushcraft skills aka chopping fire wood. Felling small tree's limming! If I had to by another axe. Hultafors all day LONG! Respect from U.K. 👍👊
Great job. The metal "persuader" was my favorite part. I was sort of hoping they'd give you a box of heads and you'd be able to offer a Buckin Arvika sale. I was sort of expecting a little Buckin' versus Shawshank chopping/throwing contest at HB though. Heading over to check out the other videos now. Thank you for sharing your trip with us!
Hi Billy and Tim, Great job with the tour!!😁😁 Keep up the good work!! Take care and have fun!! I know I am!!😁😁 It's like I'm on vacation with you. Talk to you soon!! Your friend Al. P.S. no axes yet. If they don't show up today, I'll start checking on them on Friday.
Looked like one heck of a tour guys. Thank you soo much for taking us along. Going to have to watch for Arvikas here now. I know mine has a date with some ash this weekend.
You are great. Welcome back. I live 800m from the factory often ride the trails around there on mtn bike. I really like your videos.Fantastic glowing person
Thank you, Billy, Tim & the whole Buckin army who pulled together to make this trip happen. And thanks for taking the time to visit HB during your trip, we're honored to have you both out. Safe travels
We The Stump'n Crew Are sooooooo Happ-E That we were part of being able to get ya there, Buckin' ! Shankster's quite a Guide Eh ? If that was a Yaucht, I'd hate to see the size of a Cruise-Ship Hah ! Even had Coffee & BisKits Mmm You feller's were sure treated swell. So happy we tagged along Eh ? 5-Star com'n to a channel near you real soon W00-H00 ! Love & Light to all from The East Coast ATB Ter God Bless
Wow buckin that looked sweet! Gotta be pretty warm in there by the forge eh? Pretty awesome to be able to see that stuff, bet you can't wait to get forging your own in a day or two! Have a good day friends!
Enjoyed this video. Plan to visit Hults Bruk Axe Factory in about one week (mid June 2022). My great grandfather worked at the factory in the late 1880's into the early 1900's.
Sphen just watched this for the 100 time but man i actually found a Hults bruk dealer a hour away from me in Louisville Ky and got to see there beauty up close. Needless to say i have 3 in my collection now!!!!
Thanks again to Tim (Shawshank) for the inspiration to call our pal Buckin' away from Nanaimo to share this experience with him and ourselves. What a gift. Thanks also going out to the folks at Hults Bruk for their hospitality. Knuth, Leonard, Sven and anyone else who was a part of the welcoming team. We so greatly appreciate the opportunity to see not only history, but history in the making. To Billy I say thanks for taking us on this video tour. Much like you have thought of yourself, I would never have had the opportunity to experience this stuff. I'm not jealous, but thankful. This is an awesome experience and it's not over yet! Be Blessed!
At work I broke my finger on my hand shipping some brush so I'm a little behind on Videos but I had a chance to watch on my phone today. One of my coworkers was wondering why I was so excited asked me how many cups of coffee did you have today Joe four or five? LOL no just watching the get the gullet guy oh that one you told me about the one who made your custom ask yes yeah he's pretty cool I've only seen a couple of his videos but I do like his style. I said yeah now you know who the bucking army is hehe
Hello sir, I’m planing on going to the buskin stock with my uncle Kenny , looking forward to meeting the family, especially YOU my new friend, a hug is headed your way.
That was so interesting. As a tool and die maker I can really appreciate all the skill and craftsmanship involved with making these axes. I would love to buy one of these fine axes when it becomes available here in the States. Keep on buckin Mr. Buckin☺
Interesting hearing you put on all the different accents. I was born just down the road in Seattle and didn't realize that the accent just across the border in BC was so different. Cool video, guys.
AMAZING video buddy ... did you notice buckin that """"" old hammer that was out side""""""" even though the HB company makes axses to chop down trees .... did you notice that the hammer had a massive tree as the arm for the hammer ,,, outstanding billy boy ..

Couldn't stop smiling during this. Your excitement about being there is joy to watch.
