I've never had an education on the history, styles, shapes, manufacturers, and purposes. I've only learned bits and pieces. You put the axes up to the camera so we could see logos, ingraving, labels, and stamps but the lighting in the room caused the visual to go dark. Not sure how to fix that but I'd love to see what you're showing if you can solve the lighting. Thanks for sharing. I ordered a hytest Tasmanian from you recently. I'm hoping to order a wedge banger from you in the future.
Sweet collection man! Looking forward to seeing more. I've been looking for a long handle for a Sager Chemical Puget Sound pattern I have, glad to see they are available.
That there plumb rafter 5lber on O.G. handle is pretty sweet. Be even sweeter if it was a waffle pattern pull. #3 & #5 are my favs, oh and I like the last collins 4lb 😊❤
You must get a head ache figuring out which axe to use lol. Enjoyed the video. I have a true temper {Lion} is that collectible or just common, see you on the next one.
What a collection! ❤️ Looking forward for the rest! I peronally love the Säter Banko axes. Most of those i can find are old military surplus from ww1. And after ww1, the company went away. If you are able to find some without stamp, that is a sign that the axe is from the mid 1800’s to early 1900’s. Best wishes from 🇸🇪!
What kinda setup would you recommend for a taller guy who knows how to split wood? I can still put the power to it so it would have to be skookum but I'm getting older so I don't want to swing a whole lot of weight. I can finesse and hit my mark and I know how to read wood but every once in a while you have to get to it. I'm splitting now with my last falling axe a 5lb.Collins, the handle is way too short, but I do like the impact it hits with. Just looking for suggestions. It's just a hobby anymore maybe 10 cord a year.
