I made my own version of your bushcraft axe from a shingle hammer . Cutting the hammer off completely changes the feel of the axe it was awkward to swing with it and now it’s very felt and lightweight
Each to their own. Im sure I have done some works that many people wouldnt like. But as you say, you bought the items so can do with it as you will. I for one enjoy your channel and gain good inspiration from the work you do. Keep it up mate. Speaking of which I am going tp make a bucket forge similar to one you used to have. Any tips on the mixture you used to create the inner?
Never do a video acknowledging someone that doesn’t have a life and doesn’t have something valuable to add. F that guy. F his thoughts. If he had something valuable to say, he’d have a video that people actually watched. He doesn’t. Osage is extremely temperamental. If you work with soft woods, poplar, or even oak… don’t even think about judging until you branch out and try to work one one of the most difficult woods out there, like Osage. Don’t want to hear you opinion on it until you put the work in. It’s no joke. A knot in oak is not the same as a knot in Osage. Thank you for sharing your journey. I’m slowly replacing most handles for tools in my shop with Osage. I’m doing this for “fun” but it’s really making me respect your work. I ran into a lot of cleanish Osage lumber that I couldn’t turn down. This stuff is incredible. I can’t imagine sharing my experience. I’d have to mute most of it. Keep it up and keep sharing. F the trolls.
🇺🇸 Great Bushcraft ax also like the sling and cover you made for the ax great craftsmanship. Somebody doesn't like it they can make their own. 👍🏼🤙🏼✌🏼 🇺🇸
I liked it. I personally prefer a small carving hatchet with my sven saw, 5 to 6 inch scandi or convex grind knife and a good pocket knife. Just depends on what you are out doing.
Enjoyed the vids. I have an old axe head my son and I are carefully revitalizing. I’m having difficulty finding information on it, but it was from a private land site in the mountains where last logging would have likely been for railroad ties. Can you direct us to any places for researching a 4lb head with a trademark B.J. from J.E. Pilcher St. Louis, USA? Model looks like a Blackjack 4?
I hope you're doing your due diligence to make sure the axe didn't belong to Abraham Lincoln or Paul Bunyan or Lizzy Borden... smh... Some people shouldn't be allowed to comment on RU-vid... keep up the great work!
