    Steel Wool... As an Army brat in Bolivia 1953-1955. I watched an artisan finish mahogany tables and chairs with progressively finer steel wool and oil by hand. The result was amazing and I never forgot the finish you get with fine steel wool and oil. Thanks for all the great videos.

      I'm a professional window cleaner, steel wool is the go to for clean windows. if you try it, make sure you use the steel wool with a liquid to act as a lubricant(dawn, joy, ajax, etc.......)then squeegee off................... perfection!

    I have quite the extensive collection of Gransfors Bruk axes, hatchets, mauls and wedges. You can accept full responsibility for that little gem in my life Cody. I've spent countless hours while working overseas watching your channel as it's full of great material and life lessons. It also passes the time away from home that I spend peering out my window at the 3rd world countries that I inhabit as I day dream and plan projects and goals on my own small chunk of 7 acres in Eastern Virginia. Thanks for all you do and be well friend.

    Learning how to take care of things (sharpening, oiling, maintaining, etc.) is how I fell in love with this channel. It's always good to see these kinds of videos. One question: do you still recommend sand paper for those tools you get that come with a coat of varnish? I was looking forward to doing my handles in the fall just like you said you used to do every fall and I have several that need the varnish removed.

    Great video Cody - my splitting axe could do with a clean up for certain, will get some linseed oil on it too. I use Lincoln Neatsfoot oil here in England. It’s bone meal based and excellent for leather. I use it on all my leather outdoor stuff and if you can get your hands on some in the states you might well add it to what you have already. Yeah the axe videos are some of my favourites - thanks!

    A boy scout recipe for waterproofing anyi has work great for me on wood ends. Old boots and fabric waterproofing.
    Melt 16oz beeswax with 8oz of boiled linseed oil then add 8 oz of turpentine. Stir as it cools. Once set up. Apply liberally and apply heat to area. Heat gun works great. I've also waterproofred hats as well.

    Years ago I started using good old canola oil on my motorcycle boots and now I use it on all my leather including my sheaths that I make myself. The leather really soaks it up and I have found on my sheaths it soaks all the way through applying it only on one side and gives them a great looking finish also. My boots are now six years old with a lot of riding time in all kinds of weather and the leather is still in great shape. I ordered a new hatchet the other day and I'm going to try the canola oil on that also. Very curious about how that will work out. The canola oil works great on my wood cutting board so I'm curious to see how it will work on an outdoor tool.

    Maybe I will regret it.... I am using walnut oil to oil leather, and at the moment I am thinking of using beeswax and a hairdryer to wax the outside of the sheath on my brand new Gransfor Bruk hand hatchet sheath, to harden it, and use a cool fabric glue to glue the floppy end of the sheath. That could fail when I later oil the inside only. I thought of this when I saw people using Brazil nuts to oil wood. Hmm....
