6:20 Sondre: when driving wedges don't have your leg up against the tree as someone else is making the backcut. If the tree isn't round the bar might poke back through or they might move the power head too a different position to reach the far side and hit your leg.
I think he does this because how he does back cuts is quite different and there is no risk of the bar poking out. In the norway video with Sondre it seems like the way they do backcuts in Norway is they do a plunge cut a few inches from the "far" side face cut corner and plunge halfway through the tree, bring the bar around halfway(so a "quarter" slice of the pie is cut with the nose of the bar in the dead center of the tree), put a wedge in, then continue around to the other corner of the facecut. Through this process the nose of the bar is pretty much always in the tree. He explained they do this to insure that they can get a wedge in while theres still a ton of holding wood and with the bar orientated in a way where you can get the wedge deep in quickly without the bar in the way. I assume this is because while their trees are fairly tall they are also quite skinny, so not alot of space to drive a wedge in with a conventional back cut even if theres enough weight to get pinched.
Hey Jake how are you buddy good to see you my buddy he met you a while back he's a good friend of mine I forget where he met you at but we're from the Pittsburgh area he passed away this week he's also a tree guy like I am we've been cutting timber for many many years and it's just broke my heart man I'm at a loss for words I know you went through the same thing it's tough buddy God bless you Jake stay safe my friend
What a treat! I woke up to this brand new GoT video this morning. I have my coffee and I'm settling in to watch. It's great to see Sondre from your Norwegian Wood series again, and Gordy is always fun. He met his face cut on that Humboldt like a homing pigeon. What a great cutter he is! It's gonna be a GOOD DAY!
It's Sondre. Sandra is a female name. Sondre is from the Old Norse name Sundri, which is possibly derived from the Norse word for South. In contrast, Sandra is from the Italian/Greek Alessandra/Alexandra.
The 394xp and 395xp saws are legendary. I've got a couple of them and they just run and run without fail. Super reliable, they run like a banshee, and love to go wide open. I run 32" bars on mine in NorCal. Fantastic saws. It's awesome to see your Norwegian buddy in the States too. Very cool.
Great job as always guys!!! Liked seeing Gordy show Sandra how to use that axe jk lol That many wedges, you know she was a big girl!!! Stay safe crew!!! Just wish Jed was still with us!!!
This video was missing one thing but I can’t quite put my finger on it ….huh good job nicely done but I can’t help but feel something is wrong here like there’s a puzzle piece gone guess it’s just a feeling I have that’s all hats off to you guys great job
Everytime you cut a big tree next to a house like that, I think of your "Idiots with chainsaws!!! My first tree as a business owner" video. Amazing video to watch if you haven't watched it; life is a learning experience
Gordy once again demonstrating why he is the MF man, and at the top of his game. I would pay to come learn from you for a week, keep up the great work!
I have a couple 592XP saws. Great potential, but imho Husqvarna over rushed the R&D and released too soon. Particularly the first one I got, I’ve had nothing but problems. The 2nd one was 15 months later and even sounds completely different.
The 395 came out in 1996. It has few changes other than the cylinder and intake boot (vs block), to its predecessor, the 394, which came out in ‘91. So damn near 35 years of the same platform. It’s really impressive. Kinda like following the 044-046-440-460-461 Stihl saws. That 1128 series had some serious staying power too.
great job getting them down safely! and on the mark. just amazing taking down such large trees and not having issues EXCEPT FOR THE NAILS! how did they get that deep, and oriented in the vertical. always the last tree! it did not look as he hit them, still rusty with no chain marks! wonderful video!
Are you kidding? Our borders are wide open and they give this guy from Norway a hard time? I need a.NYdot number on my truck for Homeland security., but our borders are wide open. What a joke., good video guys
I saw some K+H wedges in this vid. A friend of mine lives about a mile away from me in a house that he bought from the people who started the K+H Grass Valley wedge company in their garage. The landscaping in their yard was all edged with 7 1/2" wedges. I once had about 50 of those wedges from that yard.
Husky some years ago, bought Jonsered,,, for the engineering team. The saws produces by Jonsered and Husky 20 years ago are absolutely the best. On the second tree the sawyer stayed much too long cutting. Once the tree starts to go walk or run away. Especially because of the rotted core, a barber chair will kill you dead.
They gave him a hard time at customs, but others just flood across. Sorry, but that kinda stood out for me. Welcome to the US sir…really hope you enjoy your visit with Jake! Really enjoy this channel
Brilliant video Jacob as ever. Super quality on the picture really stands out. Do you guys not like using high lift wedges? Are they commonly used over in the states?
Funny how they gave Sondre a hard time at customs but yet we let 1k's run across the boarder then pay them to stay 😂😂. Awesome video cant wait for the jext one!!!
Jacob, you may not read this but thank you for using the word "rippin'" to mean cutting through wood well. I got accosted on my channel for saying that and not meaning in the context noodling. Anyway, love to do a collab (I'm in Snohomish county) and/or having you on my firewood addicts podcast. Keep cuttin'!! (Go pinkway!)
I just started tree climbing, and it's almost entirely your fault. I have to say I fully understand why you and Randy like the hawaiian shirts. Also, how are you not completely jacked? It's easily the most physically demanding thing I've ever done. Thanks for all the great videos.
Jake- why do you do so shallow a face cut, then beat on wedges to fall? I know that this is common practice, but it’s a hell of a lot of work! What is wrong with 50-55% face and 40-45% back cuts?

Great video Jacob 👍 I really like the parts with me in them 😆 I
😂
You couldnt find a bigger tree for that little saw? Holy shit man 😂
😂😂
You should change your channel name to Gordy of TreeSon
Me too 😅😅
Gordy always delivers the best zingers without being a real prick, ya know! He's my kind of guy!! Seems like a fun dude!
great to see sondre doing well in life. i remember his story from the old video, a good dude who has paved his own way
Good to see sandre for sure

Good eyes!!
I k ow I was screaming at the screen waiting for it to happen..can't believe the camera guy didn't catch that!!!!
Not a good habit

Came here to say this as well. What a gong show. Huge NO.
Dang Gordy, experience is a great value. That’s an impressive cut.
Also helps to knock the bark off where your wedges are going. The bark doesn't help lift the tree at all and it limits your travel with the wedge.
Hey Jake how are you buddy good to see you my buddy he met you a while back he's a good friend of mine I forget where he met you at but we're from the Pittsburgh area he passed away this week he's also a tree guy like I am we've been cutting timber for many many years and it's just broke my heart man I'm at a loss for words I know you went through the same thing it's tough buddy God bless you Jake stay safe my friend
Dang man I am sorry to hear that. God bless you too, thanks for all your kind words buddy
What can I say…really awesome to see Geordie and looking forward to seeing Sandre in the coming vlogs
Seeing dude rest his leg up against your back cut on the first tree gave me so much anxiety while you were cutting 😂
What a treat! I woke up to this brand new GoT video this morning. I have my coffee and I'm settling in to watch.

The safety squints are strong in this video!
another great video brought to us by G & J. Great to see Sandra from Norway - enjoy your visit

Gordy can bang a wedge. Flawless technique.
Gordie was so polite with asking to help
The cow cam gave me a good chuckle lolol

Love all your posts. Thanks for the entertainment.
Great work! Open fields are a rare luxury! Thanks for the vid!
Your son did a good job with the sharpening! Gordy could do worse than ask him to fix up today's chain.
Gord cuts like a surgeon, superb precision
Great job Jake...... keep em' coming.
Great job as always guys!!! Liked seeing Gordy show Sandra how to use that axe jk lol That many wedges, you know she was a big girl!!! Stay safe crew!!! Just wish Jed was still with us!!!
Excited to see you bringing new people! He's probably stoked to be here
I love this channel, could watch it 24/7
Gordy makes it look so effortless with that small bar!!!
That's really cool that you brought Sondra over here. Really cool.
God bless blue collar guys! Great video Jacob.
Nice to see a fellow Viking ;) Greetings from Sweden :) Love GoT!
Wow, those trees are truly magnificent!
This video was missing one thing but I can’t quite put my finger on it ….huh good job nicely done but I can’t help but feel something is wrong here like there’s a puzzle piece gone guess it’s just a feeling I have that’s all hats off to you guys great job
Love your videos! We had two firs that size and near our house taken down in March here in Maple Valley. We felt them when they hit the ground.
love to watch and hear the big ones fall❤
This is so awesome! I remember watching that whole Norway video when it first came out!
Gordy...is...the....man.
love these kinds of videos thanks Jacob!!
Nice work guys...
We thank his ancestors for bringing the highly invasive Norway maple here, it keeps my house warm all night :)
Happy to know that Sondre is "studying" with you for a month! :)
Great video all the way around!❤❤❤
Super smooth transition from the helmet to the phone at 9:06 very cool.
Really good video!! Picture is awesome
That chain is sharper than 90% of us that are watching could do.
Nice match up on that humbolt cut
You, Buckin’ on Vancouver Island, and August down in Grants Pass are my Big Tree PNW style guys. Love to all of you Pros.

“My six-year-old sharpened this” 👍🏼
gordy really is at the top of the league! fantastic work fellas 😁
Love the growl of a big Huski
That was so fun!

That was a good one & with Sondre.
Just watching the action. lol
592 is the best saw I have ever ran
Nice felling guys! And amazing video quality, must have been absolutely perfect lightning! 👍🔥
Gordy showing who is Top Dog again…very nice work all of ya
Gotta get me thoseDogs for my 572

Your name always gets my hopes up for America when I see your name pop up.❤
great job getting them down safely! and on the mark. just amazing taking down such large trees

always the last tree! it did not look as he hit them, still rusty with no chain marks! wonderful video!
Way to go need more content
395xp has been built since 1994
Nice to watch 😎
Another Great Video Thx Guilty of Treeson
Glad you enjoyed it
Nice great to c bro from the north'
Gordy is just too dang cool.
Dude whaat I thought those nice looking shots were filmed on an expensive DSLR. So surprised they were shot on a phone! They look great.
Awesome to see Sondre getting aquatinted with some PNW trees!
6.20 screaming 'get your fricken leg off the tree'. Good of you not to edit it out Jacob, good learning point right there. Regards from Scotland.
Love gordy keeps the lid on in the wagon. Gota be ready bro'
Excellent sound quality when the tree falls at the 8:00 min mark... Glad you killed the saw so we could hear it.. Thats like some ASMR stuff
The 394 came out in1997 , and the first run of the 395 was 2000 or 2001 somewhere in that time frame,
Huskies usually have the date manufactured on an aluminum tag….😊
SONDRE!
my 394 is a 1996 > Love seeing the 93cc saws eat. I just restored one on my channel. Happy cutting Jake !
Greetings Sondre 🇨🇦
Now you need a friend from Iceland and you got Twin Peaks!
Are you kidding? Our borders are wide open and they give this guy from Norway a hard time? I need a.NYdot number on my truck for Homeland security., but our borders are wide open. What a joke., good video guys
Yeah 💯 it’s so dumb
AND he’s going back to Norway in a month. He’s not going to be a new resident leeching off of the government
@@gs1100ed They gave him a hard time because they knew he wouldn't be voting. haha
Sondra needs to take down a big one! That would be so awesome.
If he does, it won’t be on RUclips…
Thats Crazy about that Tree beieg Rotton and have a Nail in it 😮
Man that big husky is really singing the blues lol.

What?
Yeah it’s so backwards 💯
i guarantee nobody ever 'just floods across' usa customs and immigration.
I really enjoy the US, and i am already looking forward to more trips here! Except popping my panties at customs, that kinda sucked..
He flew to Mexico and walked across the border he could have gotten a free flight to Washington and a😅 debit card
I have a lot of very bad things to say to customs. But this is a family show...
❤️from 🇳🇴
Wow pretty cold there in May 😃
Brilliant video Jacob as ever. Super quality on the picture really stands out.
Do you guys not like using high lift wedges? Are they commonly used over in the states?
395XP was 2001 to 2005, as in the Chainsaw Collectors Corner, Sweeden.

On the second tree , he's done that once or twice before.
Back bar straight to the kneecap. goodness bro.
I have a Stihl 090 with a 59 inch guide bar. We used to use it to cut long packs of imported timber.
Send him to northern Vancouver island we can show him some big wood
I just started tree climbing, and it's almost entirely your fault. I have to say I fully understand why you and Randy like the hawaiian shirts. Also, how are you not completely jacked? It's easily the most physically demanding thing I've ever done. Thanks for all the great videos.
Great precise felling, nice job but why don't you guys use eye protection ?
I want to see how the 661 with the 42 on performs!
Always wondering how much a job like this would be
Hi Jacob , good again but not getting many from you in the UK now
Jake- why do you do so shallow a face cut, then beat on wedges to fall? I know that this is common practice, but it’s a hell of a lot of work! What is wrong with 50-55% face and 40-45% back cuts?
