Muchas gracias Mikel!! Me alegra que te guste el toque que le di al mango 😜 Yo no se los años que tendrá este hacha pero desde luego muchos... fué forjada a mano como se puede observar por sus irregularidades. Saludos compañero! 🛠🛠🛠
So glad you didn't sand and polish away all those forge lines. It really came out beautiful. A little more torch time on the grain for me. Not burnt but really bring out the contrast!
Thank you very much for your comment. im very glad you value the decision about left the forge lines.. I'll take your recommendations into account for next videos! 👍👍👍
It came out looking pretty nice. It's a wood working rather than a wood cutting axe so not designed for chopping. Have you thought about sharpening it (with a wet stone)? How are those lines along the front bevel? Maybe it's just rough casting but one of them looked structural (a crack). Interesting looking handle. How does that rectangular shape feel against the base of your thumb?
Thanks for your comment, i didnt know the correct function of this tool, so many thanks to say me. Yes, i will sharpen with a wet stone (I wiil make it like in my other video ''restoration some old tools''). I think the lines of forge are not structural and not a problem.. the time with the use will say it. I feel all the handle quite comfortable and i am happy with the result.
That looks like someone tried to copy a Hudson bay tomahawk from someone else's description. It's kinda longer on the blade side,but really neat looking! For a wall hanger,that's a descent handle. If you're gonna use it,the board was to narrow/thin. That's gonna kill your hand. If you're gonna make one out a a booard you need one half again as thick as that one was,to get the proper thickness to make an actual round,handle cross section. Otherwise,I liked it. You didn't over work the metal surface. I like the blueing that was a nice touch.
Muy buen trabajo ! Lo felicito por su esmero ! Me gustó mucho este vídeo ! Observo que no reparó la parte trasera del hacha !.....sólo le faltó este detalle para que su trabajo fuera completo. Saludos cordiales desde DK ! J.H. 🇩🇰
Muchas gracias por su comentario! me alegra que le haya gustado. Quizás si podría haber reparado la parte trasera del hacha, la verdad es que no me lo plantee, para la siguiente lo tendré en cuenta. gracias!!
1. As a video maker, I can't imagine ever giving someone a thumbs down on a video like this. 2. cool resto but what is the purpose of that handle shape with the flat belly? is it a weight balance thing?
Hey dude, thanks for watching and comment.. i'm sorry you didn't like the decision about change the handle, I wanted to give it a personal touch. The old handle is not destroyed! it is only a little bit shorter, i will use for another tool, im sure..Greetings
He sido malinterpretado, nada que objetar a tu restauración, se ve que sabes lo que haces, me refiero al posible valor que podría tener como pieza de colección que se pierde al quitarle la pátina que hay debajo del oxido, por lo demás tu trabajo es muy bueno, en cuanto a el nada que objetar, sigue haciéndolo, siempre gusta ver ha alguien que sabe lo que hace
Nice, I like leaving the patina instead of polishing! I think you should remove the mushrooming on the hammer side, it is very dangerous when it chips of!
It's your video and therefore you may not want to receive any negative comments, however, I find myself unable to withhold saying the following. That is, unless my old eyes are deceiving me, I detected a crack in the hatchet's lower area running crosswise on the right side of the broad face. A crack which you never attended to in any manner, which unfortunately in my opinion, negates all the work that you did do on the hatchet. As such, if I were you I would never have put my logo on the handle. BTW : That is a hatchet design which in all my long years have never seen before, but I like it and would like to know the manufacture if possible. Further, the style of handle that you made is also one which is new to me as well.
Hi. I appreciate all the comments as long as they are respectful. A lot of the comments help me to improve the work. What you have detected is not a crack properly, it is a delamination, signal that it is a hand-forged piece.. in my opinion, trying to eliminate that forge lines would ruin my restoration work. i could have polished all the axe and those lines would have disappeared, but I wouldn't have gotten a stronger axe.. I decided to put my logo on the handle, it is my stamp, but i respect your opinion. Im glad you like the design of the hatchet 👍 BTW : I like the critical comments I hope to continue seeing you here
@@timknight6246 Thank you for the information, but I still believe that it would be called a hatchet of some kind, like a shingle hatchet or a roofing hatchet, etc.
thanks for saying ''beautiful handle'' 😀 When I draw a design I never finish it the same day, I draw at times and I modify until finally the design convinces me.
Porque dices eso? Considero a capoteando el temporal un gran referente, aunque de estilos diferentes dentro de esta plataforma. Admiro los conocimientos que comparte.
@@bunkerTools nada hombre no te lo tomes a mal, esque a el le gusta hacer los cabos a la vieja usanza rebajado a hacha como el dice🤣. Muy guapo el efecto quemado👏
@@dekuamban1 Se agradece tu respuesta. Rebajado a hacha es como hice el cabo del hacha de mi 2o vídeo, y sinceramente, creo que es el más duro.. En este le he dedicado mas atención al aspecto, ya que me gusta darle formas más vistosas (y también muy cómodas a la mano) sin perder funcionalidad. Pero reconozco que el otro es mucho mas batallero. Saludos!
@@bunkerTools de nada amigo, pues me lo veré cuando pueda. Yo no entiendo mucho pero cuando Jesús lo hace asi es por algo jeje, ademas de la satisfacción que tiene que dar saber que lo has fabricado sin ningun tipo de herramienta electrica😁

No paper test this time, no sharp stone this time.. but as you can see the axe is fully functional. ( I will consider your comment for future videos😉) Thanks for watching!
Lamento que no te haya gustado la restauración. Respeto tu opinión pero no estoy de acuerdo, le he dado una segunda vida a una herramienta olvidada y condenada a pudrirse por el óxido. Me gustaría que me dieras algún consejo para mejorar el trabajo. Gracias
