Steel Wool... As an Army brat in Bolivia 1953-1955. I watched an artisan finish mahogany tables and chairs with progressively finer steel wool and oil by hand. The result was amazing and I never forgot the finish you get with fine steel wool and oil. Thanks for all the great videos.
I'm a professional window cleaner, steel wool is the go to for clean windows. if you try it, make sure you use the steel wool with a liquid to act as a lubricant(dawn, joy, ajax, etc.......)then squeegee off................... perfection!

I have quite the extensive collection of Gransfors Bruk axes, hatchets, mauls and wedges. You can accept full responsibility for that little gem in my life Cody. I've spent countless hours while working overseas watching your channel as it's full of great material and life lessons. It also passes the time away from home that I spend peering out my window at the 3rd world countries that I inhabit as I day dream and plan projects and goals on my own small chunk of 7 acres in Eastern Virginia. Thanks for all you do and be well friend.
2 axe videos in 2 days! Thanks Cody!

A boy scout recipe for waterproofing anyi has work great for me on wood ends. Old boots and fabric waterproofing.
Melt 16oz beeswax with 8oz of boiled linseed oil then add 8 oz of turpentine. Stir as it cools. Once set up. Apply liberally and apply heat to area. Heat gun works great. I've also waterproofred hats as well.
A workshop saver for thos who didn't know always put boiled linseed oil rags in a air tight can or in bucket of water or when it drys out it will spontaneously combust. 👌🏼
Use the back of the blade. Doesn’t dull the knife and still knocks off the chunks
Just sharpen the knife? The sharp side works way better.
@@pivotalpigeon2914 Nope. A 90 degree edge on the back of a blade is far superior for scraping wood than a sharp blade with any kind of grind. That's what it is meant to do.
I really enjoy looking after my equipment and making it last this just makes me want to get out to my shed and start going through my tools and it's 00:50 here in the UK. Cheers for the video
Maybe I will regret it.... I am using walnut oil to oil leather, and at the moment I am thinking of using beeswax and a hairdryer to wax the outside of the sheath on my brand new Gransfor Bruk hand hatchet sheath, to harden it, and use a cool fabric glue to glue the floppy end of the sheath. That could fail when I later oil the inside only. I thought of this when I saw people using Brazil nuts to oil wood. Hmm....
Thanks for the inspiration. I rehandled an old hatchet and I've learned so much. Still haven't perfected things but your axe videos are great.
Skidmore's Leather Cream!
I bought the Council Tool Woodcraft Axe at Blade show. Before this video I thought I was finished with Linseed Oil for a while. Now I know to apply it once per month for the first year. THANK YOU for that.
You bring joy. Thank you
Wow i love the "Dalahäst" in the background ! :D
Way to hack away at those ax care chores! Enjoyed the vid!
Thank you wranglerstar. This old video is relevant and helpful to me. So many lessons to be learned in one sitting.
I'm not going to lie but I kind of thought your videos sucked at first but I've really grown to like them. Thank you for doing all you do. God bless
Thumbs up for Ballistol. I use one of "Oaklyn (6Pk) 14 Oz Plastic Squeeze Bottles" for my Ballistol and other oils, on my workbench. Works really well
My two favorite video elements, axe stuff and manly manners!!
Buy nice or buy twice. You've got some nice axes there, Cody.
If you'd boil raw linseed oil, would that be the same as what you used to get?
I'm pushin' 40, I don't look anything near that age. I act a bit younger and I spend some time now and then with younger people. Good to keep that young spirit. Sure makes for a gooder life.
Thanks, Cody, for the Manly Manners. That's a good little book. Always waiting for that
Ahhh! Fall is in the air! A wranglerstar axe video!!!🤗
Happy Monday Wranglerstar
What a beautiful axe , thanks for the great tips .
Isopropyl alcohol (found in hand sanitizer) is a great solvent for tree sap. Definitely need oil afterwoods though due to drying effect.
I also really like using Rem-Oil on my axes. Wonderful video!
Dude.... You have an obsession with axes !!!
@wranglerstar, have you ever reviewed the Karesuando Big Axe?
This is the Bob Ross for axes and leather
"Manly Manners" and planting a small seed of Christian faith. Very cool. Way to use your platform for the greater good. Subscribed!
it is very important to pass these trades on to the young. everyone thinks they can just use the internet how to do anything, but it takes much more experience than just that one google search or video.
An axe video, and Manley Manors. A great combination, keep up the great videos.
Great video, even if i dont need an axe is still cool to watch.
Didn't we read that page already in a previous Manly Manners or am I crazy?
Yes I remembered so scrolled through to see if I was crazy haha.
Yeah
he did, maybe last year though
Would really like to see an update to the best axe under $50 from 2014. Especially after the Bacho situation.
Good video Cody! I'm going to have to check into the oil rather than the LP
@wranglestar is there a reason why you would not use mink oil for the leather? Also i have noticed that people don't use tung oil for the wood. Is there a reason for that?
I have asked before and am again :) Have you ever reviewed axes by Council Tools ? They have a saddle double bit axe that I would like to hear your thoughts on!
If you look at the MSDS Ballistol is essentially mineral oil with a bunch of alcohols/solvents that make it work well as a cleaner for gunpowder/gunk. I'd imagine alcohols/solvents on leather would be bad news and dry it out - especially if you put it on thick and put the leather sheath on right away! If all you're doing is sealing the steel, why not just use pure mineral oil or even just the linseed oil that you already have out? Also, a lot of guys swear by a product called 'Boeshield T9' as a more durable wax-based steel sealer/rust preventor; other just use good old paste wax.
Excellent video Cody, I so enjoy your opinions and outlook on life.
Tried and True Danish Oil. It’s a polymerized linseed oil with no heavy metal dryers and is food contact safe. More expensive than BLO at the hardware store but worth it for some people.
Back to axes!!! I boy o boy o boy!!! Thanks Cody!
Great job
James Wright (wood by wright) did a video on making his own boiled linseed oil where he added beeswax. He uses it for the handles of his tools. You might check it out, see if you like it.
You can get some "Tried & True" Polymerized Linseed Oil - it dries quickly; similar to "boiled" but without the chemicals. A little more expensive, but worth it for things that come into contact with food and to avoid wearing rubber gloves.
Great video!
Ballistol ❤️ Use it for all my metal hardware, including guns. After a while they get the surface like an old skillet saturated with oils.
Kraakesolv just a good german product
I love this channel
Nice dalahäst in the back there! The one that says Välkommen (welcome) :D
I like how you mentioned stewardship as a skill. Seems like no one these days has very well developed stewardship skills.
Great observation! I love using that word too.
Just got to love a good well kept axe.
Can you use fix n wax for these leather sheaths?
When doing the linseed oil could you sit the ends of axe handles in a coffee can of the oil to help protect what would that do to the handle ?
I've seen people drill shallow holes in the ends of handles before, maybe 3/8 inch wide? They then pour in an amount of BLO and let it absorb over time. Have also seen this in combination with a small "bowl" made of duct tape on the top to hold large amounts of BLO, often done without drilling at all. Seems to use less oil than filling a coffee can and accomplishes the job.
I've always manually applied it here and there and have axe handles that have lasted decades with moderate use year round.
Hay wranglestar I love ur vids and one thing that I’ve found to be a great leather oil i olive oil it keeps it nice and moist for so lone and it keeps rust from forming on my axes
I enjoy wranglerstar but why would I put my axes etc away during the winter? That is when I use them the most.
Glad I found your channel. Love your videos
New subscriber, found your channel by accident. Love your videos and thank you for letting us be a part of your life.
Why are these videos so good?
I think because they are well edited and photographed and-most importantly-Cody has the knack of being able to make it seem that he is talking to YOU face to face.
Just one question ¿what you do with all axes you buy?
Great video!!!
I've use 00 steel wool to polish my truck windshield...yes it wont hurt it. Clean it and dry it and then just dry with 00 steel wool and polish the windshield. Then wash off and when you have your wiper blades that work well. Also use Rain X after and wow your looking out your truck nicely. Done this many times.
Considering that the tanning process is designed to remove natural oils, fats and moisture, it becomes a good way to prematurely breakdown the leather by re-adding "oils". Suppleness is not always a desired trait in tanned leathers. Stiffness in hiking boots will add support, suppleness in your purse is nice. You are much better suited to find waxes that preserve and protect without breaking down the leather or stitching. Sure, Ballistol is a wonderful product, I love the stuff, but it won't become intimate with my leather gear. Sno-Seal is one that comes to mind that is excellent for keeping leather in pristine condition. Ask a good boot manufacturer what they recommend, unless they've come up with some synthetics that don't start to break down the leather you'll most likely get an answer that avoids oils.
murphymb Nick's Boots, White's Boots and Danner Boots all recommend Obenauf's.
"Youth is wasted by the Young."
Help them not waste it.
using linseed oil on metal to begin with gives it a very good surface protection to start with. (I guess this was already pointed out..)
Much appreciation for the life haxe!
‘Some mad coin’ CODY THE ROADIE hehehe
Oh thank goodness! Seeing that beautiful axe all a mess was making my head hurt
what watch is that? i like it.
How often should the leather be cleaned and the handle covered with boiled linseed oil?
Yep, my buddy and I always said “everyone gets old at different ages” !
Thank you for sharing and did I miss the lock tight ??
Nice
Will you continue the One log bridge project? (Next year or so)
(Or did you already and I've missed it?)
what knife is that with the white handle ?
Whats the difference between boiled linseed oil and regular linseed oil?
so do you knock the bees wax off a fresh Granfors Bruks before oiling?
God bless a good Axe video thanks!
Cody I'm looking to buy a splitting maul do you recommend the axe eye maul or sledge eye maul thanks. You make great videos.
Good tips!
great video ! and nice advice !
Does linseed have a scent to it? I haven't used it yet
Yes. Its a distinct smell. I love it.
It does. Slightly sweet smelling. Not an offensive smell, but some people don't like it.
Great script for your "Self improvement how to be a man" section. Best. Righteousness.
Ever.
Cody, I’m in need of clarification. I thought Dutch oil is what you said is the superior oil for axe/ hand tool wooden handles. I’ve been using the Dutch oil. Should I switch to the boiled linseed oil, or continue with the Dutch oil?
Use BlO
Great stuff, as usual. Do you know about ACF50? It was developed by the aircraft industry to prevent corrosion. An alternative to Ballistol?
Also Boeshield, developed by Boeing as a rust preventative.
Have a link for that axe?
You are the best
Great Video
Guys I could use some help. I oiled my axe handle but didn't wipe the oil properly and now it is sticky. How can I fix it? Do I scrape it again with knife or sand paper or steel wool? Or it will dry out eventually. It's been a week and it is still sticky.
What would be the logistics of boiling your own linseed oil?
You can use Ballistol for the leather, the wood and the steel ;) No other products needed...
Mad Coin!!!
Have you ever considered using Never-Dull wadding polish on you axe heads, and knives?
Great vid
I’m trying to rehandle an axe and I can’t find where to get wooden wedges. Where would I find them?
Cody... look into making your own cleaner better than Ballastol. It is called, "EDs Red." RUclips it.
I use my axe through the winter
I respect your opinion on how to care for your axe but it's backwards to the way I go about it. I especially when it comes the the head. If I did it your way I would come to a axe in the spring covered in rust because of how humid it is in my state. I don't sand or scrape them except if my tool has been in the dirt, I coat the head in linseed oil and it forms a coating after it dries that doesn't wipe off with your hand and won't rust, it will turn yellow but that comes off after a couple minutes of use and I have never had it rust on me even when left in snow.
Dont listen to a word of this leather care advise if you carry your axe strapped to the side of a $200 Vanquest or similar backpack.
Scraping? Oil slicks everywhere? I'd rather just buy a new sheath every few years than have to forsever deal with a slim mess and oily fingers every time I thouch it.
Put a *little bit* of your favorite leather oil on the inside using a popsicle stick to reach the crevices, treat and polish the oustside like a pair of shoes, clean sap off of the head and handle with alcohol on a rag, use fine steel wool on the handle and follow up with BLO.
What would be the best hatchet for the least money
Elliott Clark the one you find in a thrift store, or if you are truly blessed, the one your grandfather hands down to you!
So what's the problem with soaking the axe head in water because it's loose?
What about raw linseed oil?
Hello I’ve finally gotten signed up, watched for years now I’m a new guy go figure, go new and extra content.
In the future, I saw someone rub fat into the pine sap and it took it right off without taking off the old oil finish.
Can you put on the products in your store please
