TIM!! I HAVE SOME INFORMATION TO SHARE! The small marks on the side of the axe are very common with trappers and fur harvesters, a lot of us carry small axes/hatchets for pounding ground stakes in, which are commonly rebar. Wonderful series, and as always; awesome workmanship bringing them back to life!
As a Swede, living not too far from Hults bruk I feel a bit touched by your appreciation for swedish axes and that you are ending the year with this video. God Jul! (Good Yule) as we still say over here and thank you for this year.
I found/stole one from my local dump, someone did not appreciate Swedish Steel. It is rustic and misused but I can't wait to start restoring it :) God Jul til dig
Are you kidding me?! You get to keep a Puget Sound, an HB and a Sandvik just for restoring and hafting a Collins Legitimus?! You got the sweeter end of that deal! And YES! Of course you should make a run of your own Puget Sound pattern! I've been waiting...! Love your work and your attitude! Merry Christmas Tim!
And if you didn't see my other comment... the Puget Sound run is a MUST! I don't think anyone makes the pattern anymore and hasn't for a long time. As an axe collector/restorer who lives in WA state in the PNW I would gladly place an order...
In high school my senior year I was splitting firewood with an ax and a wedge. The wedge had severe mushrooming on the edges. I took a swing, hit the wedge slightly off center and the mushroomed chunks of steel exploded. One piece hit me in the knee hard enough to blow a hole through my knee cap, went through the cartilage at the end of my femur and stuck almost completely buried in the end of my femur. They took it out, it was about the size and shape of a nickel with jagged edges and looked like a circular saw blade. Since then when ever I'm splitting wood I check my axes, mauls, wedges and hatchets for mushrooming, if I find any I file it down and make sure nothing is going to fly off. The surgeon who worked on my knee said if that shrapnel had hit my gut or chest it could have killed me or it could have hit me in the head with the same result. BTW, I live on Whidbey Island in the Puget Sound and find it interesting there is a Puget Sound ax.
Thanks, I really enjoyed this series. I got an old plumb from a second hand shop, used it once and noticed i need to fit a new handle.. so it's been educational for me. Thanks.
Love that small hb you did fighting cancer and Dr bills I just can't afford it. You did such a great job love your work and all the ones you built just amazing thanks for the great videos. Terry
Beautiful way of finishing this year. Thank you Tim and Martin for taking us for this year ride with you. Great team, great work, great content. Wish you the best for 2022. Bye
Thank you so much for this year, Tim. I'm so glad I stumbled upon your channel. I look forward to seeing more and buying more of your incredible hard work!
happy Holidays. Merry Christmas an a happy New Year. Very beautiful ending to this axe video series. Very beautiful job timmothy. Can't wait to see what 2022 bring for you and your videos. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Forge on. Keep making. God bless.
Hope you, Martin and families have a wonderful Christmas and New Year. Have you thought about forging something small like the bottle opener but for those who may have brought one or do not drink, maybe something edc or for the keychain?
If you are cutting the handle off you can cut it as close as you can then put it in the vise and flip it upside down. The wood just pops out no drilling I have a video of it if interested Love your vids
i do this on the side and enjoy it, love restoring an awesome tool back to better then new, double bits all the way tho lol great job man. you consider trying your hand at adding some leather grips to the handles or carving a spiral into them for a nice unique grip? also a more detailed video on making the handles would be awesome, some of us struggle a bit forming and fitting them that awesome and do you sharpen entirely on the belt sander? highest grits you use?
Can't most of those really nice looking but rejected handles get repurposed for shorter axes and hatchets? Or they could become the basis for a future series where you craft the perfect hammer head to mount on those beautiful handles.
I think Ive seen four or five axes dropped on the concrete, some multiple times. Why not use a bench vise over a table? Seems reckless for a product you will then try to sell for $300-$500.

Thanks for the information. Very fascinating. I got the little swedish axe. Nice to have that story to go with it.

Have a break. You and that sweet sidekick need time with your families. Have a safe holiday season you two. See ya next year.
I honestly think it would be awesome if this kind of axe restoration was a reoccurring series.
Enjoy the time off with the family. Merry Christmas!

I’m almost sad this little series is comming to an end. It has been an interesting journey. Merry Christmas to you all
I really liked that hatchet, it’s just got that perfect shape to it that you picture in your head when u think…hatchet
Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones from Australia
Don't stay away too Buddy, We'll miss ya.

Puget Sound Axe an absolutely beautiful axe. Please make at least a dozen. Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas 🤘🦊👍🎄🎅🤶☃️🦌☕🇺🇸
the puget sound axe pattern sounds awesome
Just got my bottle openers! Thanks for making these and offering them for sale!
Loved this series, it was really great to see all those awesome Swedish axes! I vote for German/East Bloc axes, as a native Washingtonian.
Thank you so much for this year, Tim.
I'm so glad I stumbled upon your channel. I look forward to seeing more and buying more of your incredible hard work!
This channel is wayyyyy under rated
Nice work on those axes. An idea for next year, a titanium axe!!!!
Looks like your buddy Joey has a Collins Legitimus (that’s the crown & arm/hammer logo)
Very sought after vintage axe here in the states. 👌🏻

Happy Holidays mate. Enjoy the break.
Merry Christmas, love all the work and videos Tim. Can't wait to see what you come up with for next year!
hey Tim, got a project idea. why dont you forge a large tipping scale and you can forge different size axe heads as the counterweights.
puget sound!!! yes!!
Beautiful axes, definitely make at least a dozen double bites. This one is unusually long. Keep up the great work.
Happy holidays friend!
Yes . Should make some Puget sound taxes those are just beautiful.
Merry Christmas!!
Tim, enjoy the videos. Do you have a video or make a video on how does Tim sharpen his axes.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
Merry🎄Christmas 🪵🪓
I just can’t get over what people are paying for these axes just because you regardless them it’s nutz you got some supper fans bro all I can say
Hope you, Martin and families have a wonderful Christmas and New Year. Have you thought about forging something small like the bottle opener but for those who may have brought one or do not drink, maybe something edc or for the keychain?

oh yeah last day
Dibs on the puget
Hi Timothy, What was your first step in cleaning these up? Was it just wire wheel, then belt sander?
Can't most of those really nice looking but rejected handles get repurposed for shorter axes and hatchets? Or they could become the basis for a future series where you craft the perfect hammer head to mount on those beautiful handles.
Have you ever had a Billnäs axe head they are from Finland
Carbon steel (low alloy) gets better and better with time, like wine does.
Finally have a scale! Yes!!
For swedish people sake, what is the weight in grams? Just one click on the unit button, Timothy!
What do you think about grans fors bruks axes?
DO THE PUGET SOUND AXE RUN.
Just curious, is a norlund voyager a good hatchet? Found one in a lake the other day.
Det svenska stålet biter! “The Swedish steel bites!”
I think Ive seen four or five axes dropped on the concrete, some multiple times. Why not use a bench vise over a table? Seems reckless for a product you will then try to sell for $300-$500.
O h man run the puget sound and a rafter too my guy
Watching in retrospect...seems like the two of HBs has a crack at the bottom, or am I seeing things wrong?
Beauty
Yo yo yo
