Hey Justin! That tool looks like something any Viking worth his salt, would be proud to lug along to Valhalla! (I'm sure that Ukranian blacksmiths were heavily influenced by their Scandinavian ancestors/neighbors. By the way, you know that a fella has confidence in his skills when he is carrying a "Wickedly Sharp" axe and is barefoot! Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! The linseed oil ought to make a good tool... even better. That is great news about your proposed Tipi by this Fall! I'll be looking forward to seeing that project come to pass. The ending of this one was hilarious!
Another great video really enjoyed. Watching you talk about your new ax. Think it's a really cool tool. And I know you'll get a lot of employment out of it. And I cannot wait to see what your TP looks like when it's finished. See you later. Bye.
I really like that bearded style head. I have never had a nice axe like that one. It will chop, won't it!?For the folks that are worried about you choppin your piggies, they need to notice the technique that you are using, which is the only way to cut wood, either with a sharp axe, a machette, or a power saw... That technique is simply keeping the parts that bleed on one side of the tree trunk and the cutting components on the other side. Nothing short of steel toes boots will save you if you don't know what you're doing, and they only protect your toes. A firm grip on a long handle, firm enough where it does not twist in your grip, and muscle control will keep you safe. You don't swing it like a ball bat. You could clearly see that your ducks were all thoroughly in a row, based on what the axe head does when it clears through the wood. And that all comes with practice. The fact that you got all your piggies should be sign enough that you know what you are doin, but my guess is, some greenhorn will feel the need to edumacate you on how to use your axe. Folks that know what they are lookin at can tell that you know what you're doing, based off nothin else except that you are using it as an axe and not a grubbin hoe, keepin the steel outta the dirt. If I was rich, I'd buy me one of them. That would be a cool project to learn how to etch some viking designs on it with a battery charger and some salt water. Enjoy your new toy!
they aint squablin that hawk is just tryn to invite that squirrel fer supper the style of that axe looks like it would lend itself to hewing logs and splitting them longways my granpaw n great granpaw would coat the handles of all their garden tools every fall with lindseed oil
Cool axe!

Use a $200 axe to open a 10 cent popsicle lol. I bought my other canvas today. I gotta get started on it
@@SpiritoftheOutdoors OUTSTANDING! Let the preparation & construction of "Peden's Lodge" begin!
You’re smarter than this, put some boots on
I think not. Mountain men used axes for years In moccasins. They wernt stopping an axe. Just dont cut at your feet
Sure makes me nervous 😳 but your feet prolly tough as leather anyhow. I bet you can run barefoot down a gravel road. 😂
@@mrjeffgray a pare of rubber boots would have made folks feel better and ida been as save as i was in this video lol

Looks like a bit of a midevil style axe. Looks like it would get the job done .
Nice, Thanks for sharing Justin.
That's a real nice camp axe.
