Thank you for the knowledge of Bog Wood, I had never given it much thought. I am now very interested in finding a knife with Bog Wood scales. Thanks for a great video.
If you can see the middle knife the fighter bowie in my profile pic I made that handle from a block of ancient bog oak. )) Nice stuff. Feels very nice in my hand to grip and everything and I love the deep rich black colour. It's almost like transluscent like you can see deep into it. Nice to work with too. Only problem it's a little soft so it'll get dints and scratches in it pretty easily but no bug deal.
What's so bad about it? I do my own wood cutting, would love some examples of what not to do. I know the basics to be safe and efficient for small stuff but stuff like giant oak trees, seems sketchy without an industrial mill.
You’re right, it’s horrendous they seem to have nfi. Why the guy didn’t do an undercut to start then chock it is beyond me. I won’t even go into the cutting technique.
Drying out Bog Oak is the most important element of preparing this log. For more information try Adamson & Low (UK cabinet makers) They use this timber and it them took some years before they mastered the art of drying. Hamish is a brilliant cabinetmaker with an amazing CV. I am certain he would give good advice.

Wonderful. For twenty eight years here in Australia, my business made tables from native hardwoods amongst which were Red Gum logs of similar ages also turned black. We used this for many years as inlays and decorative motiffs as it was very expensive.
Quite amazing, thank you. I'm lucky enough to have some swamp Kauri which is approx 25'000 years old. Compared to this bog oak it looks freshly felled but that's deceiving. Put a chainsaw through it and you get the occasional spark and a very dull chain, lol.

Some smaller corrections: "real" bog wood comes from high altitude bogs, situated so it does not have contact with ground water! The only water the bogs receive comes from rain, creating a very acid heavy water condition - the same tannic situation you have when preparing leather. These bogs are exclusive to Northern Europe.

Его необходимо правильно высушить, а это должно происходить медленно и при определенных условиях. Если процесс сушки будет протекать слишком быстро, то из-за внутренних напряжений, в древесине образуются множественные трещины, что сделает её непригодной для производства

Thank you for a fantastic video. As an amateur wood worker, I find the whole concept totally fascinating. I hope to see what they'll do with this outstanding material.
It wasn't floating its waS under the water, may be even buried. This preserved it. As a hard wood this is easier than softer woods. In the usa they have swamp Cyprus that they harvest for the same reason. In Australia in Tasmania we even have Huon pine and eucalyptus that is protected like that.
"STOP THE CHAINSAW!" Safety does matter.. Sad to see people who work with chainsaws for a living NOT know what they are doing. First, you never start a chainsaw that way. Always hold the chainsaw with trigger firmly between your knees or step on it while on the ground then pull the cord. Second, it's ok to saw a log that is only supported on the ends if done correctly. Which is to cut down from top about a third of the way. Remove saw and put a wedge in cut. Then start cutting from the bottom and saw nonstop until you reach the top cut at which time the log will split without getting saw blade pinched.
Unless these guys are gnomes, I think that tree was WAY longer then seven meters before they started cutting it up. As for all the negative comments, this tree fell into a bog a long time ago, and somebody found it and dug it out. This tree was NOT cut down in the present. So, slow your roll, haters! All that being said, can I have the stump?!
I didn't see a thing they were doing because I had to read the captions thru the whole video. All that info can be given at the beginning either written or narrated. Then let us watch the action.
LMAO did that dude just seriously try to saw through a floating log??? Bro...bro...brother...you never saw a floating log. You always support each side of your cut. But muh professional woodworker right?
@@chadachwilliam5515 in case like on the video you have to start from the top and finish from the bottom. Whatewer. My point is - it's a common thing to cut a floatin log, right?
