I love this guys demeanour. He’s the definition of a real man. Super calm guy, but you wouldn’t mess with him.

@philosborn1840 3 года назад

Wow, you hit it out of the park with this video. Of all the how to videos I have watched on axe sharpening, and then you come out with this right to the point of how to simply grind a axe. Congratulations 👍 🇨🇦

Thanks Phil, hope you have fun making everything sharp 👍 All the best mate. Skye

I chipped a piece of my axe today. Searched Fixing tips. This is the first vid to pop up. When I saw the drill set up . Im was sold

That's the beauty of a £40 axe, it's not so precious that you're afraid to use it and risk hitting the odd rock. Imagine doing this test with a Gransfors Bruks?! I'd cry if someone did that to my Gransfors 😂 Honestly you've opened my eyes and reminded me of why I got into bushcraft in the first place. Thanks👍🏻

Well here across the pond we refrain from chopping rocks with an axe 🪓 I suppose it does happen though 😕 Great video Skye, glad to see you back 😀

@SwampValley 3 года назад

Thanks, it felt so wrong doing it, I really like that axe too 😰 was impressed it wasn't dented more, just shows how tough they are. Hope it forgives me.

I thought I was going to have an axe to grind with you when you hit the rock with that beautiful axe. Great video, new fan. I found you from your interview with yankee.

Great vide with great advice but for me i dont have access to power tools, so a vid on how this could be done using normal hand tools would be good.?

@johnsuarez1404 2 года назад

Why do you polish your axe blades? What about field sharpening?

@SwampValley Год назад

If the axe is high quality it only needs sharpening once every couple of weeks, a mirror polish cuts better and stays sharp longer too 👍

@vincentroche6749 3 года назад

great idea with the angle grinder. What is your trade Skye? also by any chance do you live in Glasgow?

@SwampValley 3 года назад

Thanks mate, I don't really have a trade as such, just dabble in everything, at the moment I'm a bus driver but it's a job not a career if you know what I mean 👍

@vincentroche6749 3 года назад

@@SwampValley I know the struggle well. I taught myself how to paint after a few months experience on site and just decided to start my own business and sure am flying now.. We're in lockdown until Feb and then we will see what's the crack with the situation. I was asking because my younger brother moved to Glasgow and he will be looking for work soon, he's a carpenter but he can do a lot of other work.

@mobileupload4374 3 года назад

Extremely dangerous that. Get a linisher 👍🏻

@hazzardoutdoors 3 года назад

Ouch, that was painful to watch at the start there. My brother did this while cutting some wood with my axe on concrete, he's no longer my brother....
