- Blacksmith Dave Budd shows the process of hand-forging a Bearded Axe and then crafting the handle harvested from his woodland. Filmed on location in his workshop on the Northern edge of Dartmoor. Part 1 shows the forging of the axe head and the work that goes into that whilst part two covers the heat-treatment and handle making process as well as finishing the item.

the serenity that this would bring people. it makes me want to go fire up my forge now.
I have so much respect and admiration for the skill, knowledge and creativity of true craftsmen. Looking forward to part 2.
Cheers from Mississippi, USA.
That's awesome, man. I could watch that all day.
What a fantastic video, I was fortunate to meet Dave last year at the Wilderness Gathering so was great to see him at work. Looking forward to part two ~Peace~
i wish i had a place to make stuff like these :( nice work man :)
Beautiful process. Beautiful result. Beautiful video.
Excellent work Dave. Fascinating seeing you use big tools when compared to what I see you using at the Moot. lol! Well done fella.
Awesome video bro. Looks great. Looking forward to the next part. Atb. Robert
Glad you enjoyed it, hit up the NaturalBushcraft website the second part is online and on the frontpage, enjoy :-)
***** Ok this was obviously intended as a long hafted wood chopping tool right?

I think your flypress is really cool
I'm headed for part two
Very Nice work smithing a broad axe head. Very nice job filming as well. Thanks for posting the video.
the music for this is perfect
I would like to see more from Dave Budd
You're straight up a man's man
That looks so fun! If possuble, please post more of this stuff!
The first vid I ever watched on this channel was a forging vid. Love this stuff. Good vid.
Cracking work Dave & brilliant filming Ash. Thank you.👍
Glad you enjoyed it & appreciated the camera-work / editing ;-)
awesome shot at 8:22 with the hammer on the anvil with the forge in the background.
Radical face👍. awesome work!
Nice job! Awesome video-making skills too.
I love the mixture of old and new methods.
Love the radical face soundtrack!!!
That’s the biggest angle grinder I’ve seen! I thought for sure you were about to pull crank it when you had it in your hands! Awesome job!
You do some really beautiful work. Thanks for sharing it!
Great music, awesome forging, awesome outcome! 10/10
For a novice blacksmith (me) this is very interesting, I've always wanted to make a axe this way (by forge welding a peice of steel into the iron) but I've never done forgewelding before, I know that you need (or should atleast use) Borax. I've made a axe before though, I made it out of a old hammer, so I basicaly only needed to flatten the hammer side, saw of the backside, shape it the way I wanted it, grind it to the exact shape + a bevel, then heattreat it. :)
Nice video and a great ax. The man has a nice shop, those kind of flypresses / screwpress are amazing workhorses. I wish I had one.
Really like the way this turned out. Liked and subscribed
great video quality. a joy to watch. please keep them coming
I'm just learning smithing. wow. Amazing work.
I can not get over the number of people I see doing blacksmithing without any ear protection.
great clip, Durnik☺
lovely work sir
I would love to get a few weeks worth of blacksmithing lessons, this is somehow inside of me to be doing this..
superb before long there will be no one capable of doing this in the country, unless we rethink the apprentice scheme & not just this other trades too.
Beautiful!!
Nice work!!
He's a talented lil bugger is Dave Budd :D
Amazing just amazing
Awesome!
Beautiful work. Both the axe and the edit :D
I wish i had the property for a shop like that.
parabens pelo belo trabalho...
Art.
What a wonderful video. Without the music it would have been perfect. The great forging sounds would have been plenty.
Great video wish there was explanation about what you were doing and why.
cool vid man! great job... -Workshop Of Death
Music on point
nice musical background. Dave also likes real ale. (craft ale in the US, I gather) so do I
Thats an awesome "power hammer"
Отличная работа!
Kısa sürede mükemmel bir balta Yapımı 👏👏👏
Really like your "power hammer". Did you design it, or was it a commercially obtained one? Nice, low-tech but powered option for moving metal.
Wow I'm inspired and the music suits it well. Is that 3/4" thick stock? I have 3/4" x 2.5" stock and want to try this. Thank you sir for sharing this video.
beast of a flex
I love the video
the song reminds of of The Outsiders, stay gold ponyboy ;(
Amazing work! Is that round bar welded on just for better control versus using tongs?
Not trying to knock on your work. It looks great. But, is there anyone who does Viking-style weapons from scratch, without power tools, and includes the Viking-style etching, or whatever it's called, that they decorated their weapons with?
the tranquillity in this is amazing ! anyone know the song?

I would've prefered a voiceover of you explaining what you are doing, instead of a music track. Would have been a much better video, maybe next time???
+DIECASTER I think it's really obvious what he's doing... :)
+TheRollysk8 ^^^ he is right, it's obvious.
+JR Wood & Metal if he is so obvious what type of metal is he using. or temps
my assumption would be a mild steel for the bulk of the axe while the insert would be something close to 1084
as for temps exactly does he even know, I mean he is just going by color range
Next time, make sure to sprinkle some mead on the forge
why did you weld that piece in there? Is it higher carbon content or something so the edge is harder?
hello, very good job , the coal used to finish the ax ?
Hand forged but out of nowhere a precut and profiled bit appears to accept the blade. I was really hoping for an axe handforged start to finish.
What is the purpose of the criss-cross pattern chiseled into your high-carbon steel insert?
xmaswitguns Larger surface=stronger weld.
xmaswitguns Its to keep it from sliding out when he welds it, the little barbs hook into the mild steel and stop it from slipping.
Great job, can you give movie about your belt grinder, I made something like yours. Thanks.
Beautiful piece, may i ask what steels were used?
How do you like that viking anvil? Iv been thinking of getting one for Medieval Demos.
what was the white pasty stuff that was put on, and what is it for
BELISSIMO WORK
Would it cut better with a thinner blade?
Love the forging...but the music sucks lol. Hammering steel was the only music needed
hello, how is the tool used at 9:28 called? the one with the signature stamp
what kind of gloves are those? Heatproof?!
How could I obtain the material needed for the head of the axe? I want to try and make one for myself but I am not sure how much material is needed for the head or how to get it.
Decent materials could be hard to find, it really depends on your location. Also, try practicing this method/ technique before actually attempting it. Im not trying to insult your experience in this, but making a crappy first weapon and using the best materials for said crappy weapon could be very disheartening and, in some cases, you will stop perfecting this skill.
Best of Luck!
What type of press are you using? Brand,model?
What could be done in place of using a flypress to make the hole for the handle?
ethan shipley sorry for being so late, but I saw no one responded, and most times a good drift, and optionally a drill, and a good hammer, you can probably guess what to do, simply drill some holes, and use the hammer to shove the drift in
how long have you blacksmith for
what is that pulling forge press tool???
it's good
Why do so much shaping on the grinding wheel? Why not hot cut the head to shape with a hot chisel? Might save you some time.
Does he forge and sale these axes? Im interested in one.
What is with the silhouette dog? 3:44
What is the powder you were pouring on it as it was red?
It's referred to as flux for forge welding the 2 steels together. Borax is commonly used as the flux n junk! ;)
ok how much and are you delivery to ireland? pls ansawer
what's the sound track? anyone know?
👍
Respect :)
die klinge der axt ist viel zu dick , du hättest sie noch dünner ausschmieden müssen. so taugt die axt nur zum brennholz spalten...
Oder um einem Besserwisser den Schädel einzuschlagen.
+Gunnar Niederhauser dazu hättest du aber den stiel mit stehenden jahresringen schnitzen und in die axt einsetzen müssen wie das ein fachmann mit hochwertigen werkzeug macht...
what kind of steel is he putting in the edge
it will be some form of a high carbon steel
+Matthew Howard thanks
the music is far to loud
great vid but had to mute music was putting me to sleep
what's that powder he put on the axe head
flux :)
+Shane Hamilton in class we used borox
+chan moua he used borax (aka flux) to weld the small bit of steel in between the spine. I bet he also used charcoal dust on the inside to make the hole.
you pot lots of affert to this axe buy a power hammer an save your self of geting tired nice gob by the way keep up
Broken by_distiny where is the fun in that ;)
I love Jesuuus !!!! haha
Shame he is banning other blacksmiths from attending the bushmoot,.....he could learn something.
I think wayyyy tooo much flux!
I like your work but, man.,.. your gloves.... are rubber!! not good for fire
Hammer control, son!
Nice metalwork, shite music. Why does everyone feel the need to add a bloody soundtrack?
get rid of the music
I rly loved the music actually
depressing am i right. jesus it feels like im at my grade12 graduation meaningful part of the ceremony. Amarite?
