Just a couple of weeks ago, a great axeman declared Council Tool the greatest value. These two together compliment each other. Having owned both these units, I must agree with U.L. Any knowledgeable axe orator can talk about these two tools. But who can talk about them eloquently and then demonstrate the effectiveness of the tools. Then to to top it off, stone one to shaving sharpness, all the while being a great father wading amoung wood chips with a goat and chickens conversing in the background. A visually stunning beam and excellent camera work URBANLUMBERJACK....

Really interesting how keen Gransfors makes that axe. I thought it's rare for even high priced axes to be keen these days. A major manufacturer doing it is pretty cool. Excellent hewing. Something truly wonderful about essentially carving on the scale of timber frame lumber. The tie hacks doing 10-40 of these a day is nuts!

I love the carving process of hewing. That GB is definitely keen. Good steel and good grind. I haven’t even touched it with a file yet

The favorite of many axe lovers. The Gransfors American felling axe. The Council tool Jersey with Forged in bevels holds its own. But when it comes to precision or carpentry, the American felling axe takes the cake. For around 400 dollars, you too can have your own piece of swedish history. Additionally great video and thanks for the information!

Nice vid! Good show of both the axes. Ive long looked at the GB but never bought mostly because of the longer handles. A 30inch would be great. Awesome work on your part with the broad axe, that thing really showed the advantages of a specialist tool, seemed to get the beam looking nice, pretty quickly. Without a cupped blade they are so much harder to use. Good stuff👍👍🪓🪓

I've just learnt a new axe related word - shwangle. Beautiful beam. I'm convinced that hewing makes a big difference to how well a log lasts, compared to sawing. I hewed the sill and door frame and a window frame for my log cabin 25 years ago and they are still fine in the wet climate of west Wales with no preservatives (Norway Spruce). I'm sure a sawn sill would have rotted long ago. The only difference, I used a saw for creating the hewable sections before moving on to a side axe. Unfortunately, I was so keen to get the job done that I ended up with carpal tunnel syndrome so bad and persistent that I had to have an operation.

That is so cool! I do believe hand hewn has an advantage over sawn lumber for durability. It does seem to expose less end grain along the length of the log and that could mean less moisture and bug issues. Sorry to hear about your hand! Thanks for the interesting comment!

Heck yeah job man !! Wow I’m really diggin that gransfors American felling axe. I too have an American felling axe, but mine is not as fine of an example as yours. I’ll have to measure mine when I get home from work, but it’s quite thick. If I had to take a guess it’s over 25 degrees and I don’t have a file hard enough to cut it to take the cheeks back more. If anything I’ve used it more for splitting or chopping in colder temps. Man I really need to get around to trying my hand a hewing a beam it’s looks like a great deal of fun and very rewarding !!

I feel like my tuned dayton is a better chopper and better splitter than my stock jersey. What do you think? Im thinking the jersey will bite much deeper once tuned due to the profile being narrower than the dayton.
@urbanlumberjack
@urbanlumberjack Месяц назад
I think Dayton v jersey comes down to preference and bit geometry. Generally the Dayton will chop deeper but the jersey will chop more. Both should be capable of being great choppers

I’ve found sharpness matters a lot for hewing. When my axe stops biting I tune it up pretty quick
