    I was also afraid to hang the first tazzie I had. I just wanted to make sure it was a good tight fit. Through having the right handle and a lot of patience, it was a success. I also notice that when the bottom eye is chamfered it looks like it's not a completely tight fit. I sometimes will put some blo on the axe eye about midway down to make this process easier on the wood.

      I definitely caused my own problems on this hang. At least I know what I did and I know I can correct it. That's what I like about all of this. We can all learn from each other and also make it our own. Thanks for checking out the video and commenting.

    Havnt hung a tazzy yet either..looking forward but also intimidated for sure. Alot of the hafting ive done, that i had a question about, i went ahead and tried to remove to rehandle and, make a "pretty" axe. Guess what? That hang was a act of god to remove! It would of lasted a lifetime. Like you say try it and true it! For sure! Do save that handle at all costs..looks like a whiskey river premium heritage from here. Thanks for sharing bro. Look forward to more about it.

      I truly appreciate you checking out the video. There will be a sharpening video next week, and a video using the axe to fell a tree the week after. I always say go ahead and try something new. The worst thing that can happen is it doesn't work out. Just learn from any mistakes and try not to repeat them.

    Thank you for the video, despite you not being happy with it. That's why I like your channel, you are not afraid to show us the ups and downs. I still learned a lot. Pardon my ignorance as I know nothing about axes, but what makes it a tasmanian axe?
    (I have found when shaping handles for hammers, planes etc, as I'm shaping them I use a bright light close to them and use the shadows to get nice flowing curves, all the highs and lows are really highlighted. I don't know whether this is obvious common knowledge or not as i am self taught) anyway keep up the awesome videos

      I am self taught as well and definitely use lighting with feel . From what I understand a Tasmanian pattern axe was designed for hard Woods and is normally a heavier head. It is shaped a lot like a Connecticut pattern with a shorter poll. I will try to do a comparison video. Having said that, @Nsvens89 has a good comparison video on his channel.

      I will definitely record the corrected hang. I have already used this Tassie and the video will be out in two weeks. Next video is hand sharpening this Tassie. Thanks for watching and commenting.
