Late to the party but I just stumbled on this video and I got to say that as Finn, you've been mislead. Some of Finns don't like sahti, some love, many have not even tried it. It's basically a regional thing in Finland as in some regions there is like a sahti stand in every big family events like weddings and such. I love sahti and the homemade ones are far superior to the store bought ones.

Такие топоры у нас в России стали использовать в 18-19 веке,когда в обиход пришла распиловка . Это универсальный топор. До 18 века в России были топоры более удобной формы и не универсальные,а каждый для своей цели. Всем привет из России! ))

Just cut at a angle. Cutting at 90° just compressors the wood. Cut at a angle the chips will still fly! You should use a saw for the 90° cut! The back cut should always be higher. It can spin on you and kill you.

Like Russian Axes (and to an extent Japanese styles) the materials available set the design of the tool, and it looks weird to our eyes, because we had hickory, beech and ash to make handles from.
@beavercreekwoodcraft81343 жыл бұрын
The coolest part is understanding the properties of different materials and designs and seeing the positive and negatives. For instance, hickory is very strong, but transmits alot of shock. Birch is not nearly as strong, so the eye design has to compensate for that, but it transmits very little shock back to the user.

@yoman28542 жыл бұрын
@@beavercreekwoodcraft8134 yes, it seems like the lack of hard woods made a more durable design, even with birch these might have been less likely to break than a so called 'american' style axe. I have a French hewing axe and it has a very similar socket to a Finnish axe, it dosent even need a wedge! I just drove the handle in hard and I can't get it out using a punch (it was a wooden punch so I could have tried harder, but I figured at that point it will hold fine for now, and hewing is less intense than chopping)

I've one that I bought about 6 years ago from Omaha knife. At the time they offered free sharpening and you could cough up ten more bucks and get a velvicut handle in it. It's been a great axe. Keeps an edge well,long enough handle for a powerful swing. I use mine for limbing felled trees and doing bushcraft.
@beavercreekwoodcraft81343 жыл бұрын
Thats basically the same as what you get with this axe, the same FSS head with the premium handle thats usually reserved for the Velvicut line. WR has also been working with CT to improve their factory grind over the years, and I believe they have been successful. I still don't consider the factory grind ideal, but it is definitely useable, especially compared to what you would pick up from a hardware store, Fiskars aside. IIRC, the Omaha FSS was sold as a DIY kit? They sent you a head and habdle to hang yourself? Atleast the remnants of their stock was sold like that, I believe. Thanks for watching!
