That’s how I do it. Fine looking axes man!🔥⚒💪🏻
Thanks!
Where you been? Looking forward to your next video!
@@andrewneilson227 I’m currently working away from home. I’m a heavy equipment mechanic and work in road construction in the short Alaskan summers. I’ll be back in my forge October and have some cool projects I’ll be working on!
I find it personally amazing that you’re able to maintain the right angles when you’re sharpening tools by hand. To know the correct angle then to keep it. Amazing man! Thanks for the video, another tidbit to the learning bin
Thank you, just takes some practice. Thanks for watching!
That's a fine looking hatchet. Anyone should be proud to own and use it. Great job.
Tent looks the job plenty of space and a window is a must for them fresh wicklow mornings.. 👍
I really like your handle design. Having done plenty of axe work over the years I know how important a good handle is, the way you have the end of the handle grip so it won’t slip from your hand is really just right. Regards from Down Under.
Great to hear, and thanks for watching
Now I just need to shoot something big enough to butcher with an axe....looking good!
For sure! thanks for watching
Thanks for the Mother's recommendation. I was wandering what to use on a strop to get that fine razor edge.
Great, informative video! Thanks 👍🏻
Glad it was helpful!
I’ve never thought about using mother’s polish. I gotta make a new strop and try it out. Usually I just load it up with green compound, but this sounds like a good option.
Yeah! It's what we had on hand way back and then I just stuck with it..
I have a vantage Smiths black Arkansas that I'll trade for one of those hatchet heads!
That's a nice solid fawn's foot at the end. Should be enough to keep a fella's hand from slipping off, eh
Of course I was in bush Ontario when you posted them dang hatchets.
I'll be making more!!
hi all i like to know if a round stone is good for
Haven't used one but I'm sure they're useful
Watched an Old Pro sharpen the Plywood Plant Lathe Knives with a 4 inch round stone he kept in a coffee can of diesel. He would hold the stone in his right hand and work from right to left and remove any nicks and chips (if they were not to big) with a circular stroke. He was good, and down time was minimal, unless knives need to be replaced. Those knives were sharper than a razor, as a 30 inch log would be reduced to a single strip of veneer 1/8 inch thick and 100 feet long in 30 to 40 seconds.
why and in what universe would you think we want to watch you eat your breakfast... geez
