Those types of attacks happen to UK firefighters and other emergency services too. Just the way the world is going.

If you're on the edge, go for Patreon, the voice overs are really good and very consistent! They give great insights into Gaders process and what didn't work... 👌🏼👍🏼

Great work. Now really impress everyone and turn it back into a Ball Peen Hammer! :-)

It's steel bro, not modeling clay 😂

[@Phthalo]

My 5 year old and I watch these types of videos regularly, and I don't think I've seen one done with only hand tools. Love it! Very cool looking piece.

[@craigwhite9906]

Great work, awesome to see someone not just take a angle grinder and destroy the metal. Nice to see so much of the work done by hand too! Looks great

[@sa9chit]

Not only he created the awesome hatchet, but genuinely explained how he got the hammer and its not his original idea, such humility. I wouldnt know, i dont watch many such channels. There is no limit to this guys knowledge and creativity. From Forging to casting, leather works to wood works, painting to polishing, hammering to soldering, welding to woodturning to etc etc... i dont even know the number of terms he is expert in. Hats off!

[@unknown-ql1fk]

Prior to seeing this vid, the ball peen to tomahawk was my 1st real blackmith project. I'm glad I made mine like yours (processs and shape) its a great 1st project and very forgiving for a noob

[@Exosfear13]

i never get tired watching this kind of videos.

[@Joel.Invictus]

A very beautiful hatchet. I'm very inspired to build a forge at my home and start smithing.

[@bretthess6376]

I used to buy old tool heads from my buddy who owned a scrap yard for 10 cents a pound. I've made 12 or 15 ball-peens into hatchets just like you! Good work!

[@loudieselj3165]

I have a strong admiration for a humble man and the fireman also, I scribed. I like to keep up with who made the hammers that usually gets lost but you can also trace back the steel.Thx

[@douglasfathers4848]

Very nice hatchet and a good use of a old tool .

[@MrJamesjustin]

Mate, that is beautiful. Nice job.

[@ph5056]

Sweet , like your style and the way you left it with with natural marks and haven't buffed it all up . All the best from a UK metal sculptor.

[@ManCrafting]

That turned out great. I wouldn’t have thought to do that, cool idea.

[@josetelesdasilva6612]

Thanks...

[@scooter4198]

Love the nubby spike lol soooooo sweet.

[@Br0za]

That's so cool that you use stuff that you repair or done to repair or make stuff. So satisfying to watch!

[@malia3614]

Right on good job ! Love seeing it done old school with raw muscle and 🔥 !!

[@redbeardsknives3278]

i'm going to give this a go myself. i still have some old hammerheads laying around. thank you for the inspiration.

[@666toysoldier]

It's good to see someone making use of these hammers, which are a glut on the market and would go for scrap.

[@louislarose4023]

Very Nice Hatchet ! Great handle design !

Beautiful, I can imagine myself going to Valhalla with this hatchet. Awesome work man, I'll see your other stuff inmediately

[@terrydavis2552]

The balance here between rough and fine finishing is fantastic! Just beautiful!

[@ericstoever9577]

A nice project! Inventive use for an old hammer head.

[@GooseGosselin]

Beautiful! I'll never toss an old ball peen again! Watching you make the handle brought back a flood of memories, my first job was a carpenter, I repaired furniture for a university. I spent many hours carving down square stock to match chair arms and legs, the exact same way you just showed. Thank you.

[@brovusmarillian3303]

Not only did I enjoy~ you showed me better ways to making hatchets? Thank you.

I really like the handle shape of that hatchet. Nice work.

Your efficacy and willingness to use hand tools is amazing and makes for a great watch. I so many wanting the latest & greatest mechanization, and I feel so many are missing the boat in this regard.

Good job Black Beard! Its a GOOD American Hatchet, now turn the Handle around.

[@paulabiscuit7767]

Love the tool Marks.

[@rodneylangstroth4577]

Dam! Thats a true blue sharp axe. Went through the wood like nothing. Id love to have something that cool

[@jessebaxter3143]

When you heat for quench, put a steel tube inside the forge. It'll heat evenly without flipping and contain heat if you blocked off, but I can see that for the camera

[@sbjennings99]

[@jacobbowen2563]

Are ball peen hammers high carbon? I was going to forge weld a piece of 1080 into mine so it would hold an edge, but you heat treated that so I guess they are already high carbon.

[@sperber-knives]

Yeah, must be highcarbon steel

[@jacobbowen2563]

@@sperber-knives what did you heat treat it with? And what temp for the temper?

[@sperber-knives]

@@jacobbowen2563 You need a heat that is so great that the steel is no longer magnetic. (I guess about 850C °) I would temper after the temper colors. (about 200-300 C °) it always depends on the steel, it is best if you know which steel it is, then you can read the temperatures.

[@krknfmkr8919]

@@jacobbowen2563 do you know the spark test? The more the sparks "star" or branch off the higher the carbon. Works for most carbon steels, not so we'll with alloys

[@neanderson1692]

This is a really beautiful and graceful design. I must ask if there is an ergonomic advantage in what appears to my hopelessly traditional old brain to be an ever so slightly upside down handle? Please do not consider this a critasissom, but a genuinely interested question.

Great work! Nice axe!
