It's videos like these that remind me of my father and one of the things he said so often to me "Son, you ain't right in the head, and I'm not sure who I'm worried more for, you, or the world!" did your dad say the same to you? And yes, oh yes please yes to more axes! I find them most impactful and never dull.

[@Leightr]

I collect (and use) axes. I've seen a lot of creative designs over the years but this is a unique one. I know there have been plenty of hatchets designed with a "full tang" handle but this has to be the first full sized axe I've seen with one. (I'm not counting Estwings 3/4 axe) I know that if you're swinging it all day It's more comfortable to have a handle that has some flex and shock absorption, but for sheer durability that looks like a winner. I love that your took the time and care to get the handle aligned straight and not lose the blade temper. I see axes on the peg at the store where the manufacturer couldn't be bothered to line up the handle with the bit. I know it probably won't matter with this handle design with the steel taking all the stress but the grain orientation for the slabs will irk an axe purist. Beautiful piece, clever design. I wish I could try it out chopping as well as splitting, see how deep it bites into the side of a log. I've got a Flotaxe in my collection, a hollow bush plane emergency harchet that's designed to be filled with sand/ dirt/ water to provide weight (kind of a deadblow axe) and it does chop, just not quite as well as a traditional hatchet.

[@mobilegamersunite]

Add a spring in the tube to spring load them while you swing the axe...just an idea 💡

[@clydecraft5642]

How would he push the balls back against the spring? It doesnt work with momentum if the balls arent free floating

[@mobilegamersunite]

@clydecraft5642 when you swing the axe it would push the ball aginst the spring. The power of G force...

[@ablindman3328]

Faster swinging.

[@Garthack]

@@clydecraft5642 when you add the spring it would become more a of a kinetic blow, if the tube was clear and you slammed it ball side down you would see it bounce back against the spring then the spring would force them down creating a secondary blow.

[@Charlielizard]

Brilliant build! After 16 plus years of putting together this axe, it was well worth the time. Not only was it beautiful, but it was effective. Really like this dead blow. Cheers mate 🍻, you deserve a pint or two after 16 years. Have a wonderful weekend and thank you for all your hard work on this video. ✌🏼☮️

[@LarryLeeder]

So, a dead-blow axe. Dead-blow hammers have long been a thing, but this looks like a first. Clever.

[@fomomofo6917]

Deadblow hammers are designed to not damage the things that they are striking, are made of rubber or plastic, and are filled with shot. This is pretty much the opposite of that.

[@LarryLeeder]

@@fomomofo6917 Yeahhh... I've been using dead-blow hammers for 30 years almost daily, I Currently have three Lixies. In a hammer, the principle is to amplify the 《blow》 as the shot or sand delivers an inertial hit, and also to 《deaden》 any dangerous rebound. This axe operates on the same first principle of amplifying the strike with the inertial load. So yeah, it works basically the same way. I work with blocks of steel weighing thousands of kgs, and I can move them on my machine table with my 2" or 3" Lixie. The non-marring property of the urethane tips is a non-issue to me. But do go on. 🙄

[@UNSCPILOT]

I don't have much need for an Ax (most of the birch trees in my yard have turned to pulp before falling) but this is still kinda neat, would be interesting to try out

Final product looks great! This was a really nifty idea. Reminds me of some weird stuff I read in a D&D book when I was in high school (third edition or 3.5, which was current at the time): Swords that featured a reservoir of mercury in the pommel that would get drawn into a tube as the weapon was swung, adding impact to the hit. Can't remember what precisely that did in game terms, but I thought the concept was pretty cool... apart from the dangerous monkeying about with mercury, anyhoo.

[@BillBird-df3pf]

It added 1d4 extra damage or increased the dice size one level for the weapon. I can't remember which. I was gonna mention this same idea....jed.

[@frantisekvrana3902]

I feel that kind of design is better than this axe. If the weight moves across the haft (or the blade of the sword), it moves the center of mass as you swing, making your weapon easy to accelerate but hard to stop. With what this guy made, it seems pointless. It would have the same effect if he just welded the balls in place. Perhaps that would be even better, since they would deliver their momentum with the rest of the head, rather than a split second later.

[@BillBird-df3pf]

@@frantisekvrana3902 any heavy weapon is like that which is why true battle axes are very thin and warhammers have small heads and a thin spike. Any deflection with a heavy weapon is very hard on the wrists and overall maneuverability.

[@shovelhead8]

[@ledzep215]

Read something online about using this idea for a sword. I imagine forging it around the tube would be an ordeal but it's still a neat idea. Its cool seeing it brought to life in an axe! Thanks for another great video :3

[@ledzep215]

Edit: I just realized you could put the sword edge and point around the tube. Like a sword with the middle of the blade missing. Kind of like a macahuitl but with a continuous steel edge and a point.

[@DH-xw6jp]

That would be so massively thick and heavy it would would be horrible to use as a sword.

[@Ezekiel_Allium]

​@@DH-xw6jp you should look up the historical examples, they aren't as bulky as you're imagining. Googling "Indian ball bearing sword" gets you one of them. If you go to Google images it's the one with a Chevron striped pattern on the blade.

[@Alzarahn]

I've got an idea I call the Gyromace. Make a two-handed mace with a ball head too heavy to lift, but then you run a shaft through the center of the handle that spins the head up. Put a little engine on the pommel with a bicycle brake style handle to rev it up. Gyroscopic force will make the head feel like it weighs way less, so you'll be able to swing the thing. Applications in demo work and firefighting.

[@denielalain5701]

Hello! One might argue that filling up those tubes with molten metal would result in more mass, and less energy loss on vibrations caused by the impact of the weights inside the tube, but the other might argue that a layered bullet proof glass can actualy stop a bullet compared to a not layered one with similar thickness. Very interesting idea

[@Gadrius]

TIL: Marty Feldman faked his own death, discovered a cure for his condition, invested in facial reconstruction surgery, and started a DIY KZbin channel ... And I absolutely love it :D

[@SvelaPrisera]

When you first showcased the tube with the balls at the beginning I originally thought you planned on making an entire axe handle with balls inside. That way, when you swing the axe around the balls rise to the head of the axe with the momentum and provide more power at the end of the swing. Although, such a concept might be too unstable and dangerous... This idea is pretty neat, though, since it would allow you to adjust the weight of the axe head in small increments if ever a need, or want, should arise.

[@AFT3RDAY5]

Great project and very fun to watch 😂😂😂👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@Tharnout549]

[@phasepanther4423]

It's because it fits. Having smaller pellets behave closer to a fluid whereas this only allows motion along a 1 dimensional line according to the axe head. It's like using those machines at the gym vs using actual weights vs using those wacky weights with springs. You end up using energy to stabilize it without realizing it. I wonder what else can be done to make it more interesting.

[@OsoGrande5150AZ]

Another great build!

[@VTPSTTU]

Thanks for the video. That's a cool idea. I'd love to see a test of whether that really splits wood more effectively. I can see where it should split wood more effectively. In a really fancy version, the balls would be held in place until the end of the swing and then fall forward to drive the ax head further into the wood.

[@DH-xw6jp]

I think putting a couple light weight springs in the tubes to keep the balls rearward at rest would do the job

[@phoenixsoren]

I'd test it with and without balls to see how much of a difference it makes

[@RevDrMatt]

Man, I love what/how/why you do what you do! Thank you for your knowledge and talent. I just watched V2 of Newton's ax. And what about adding a simple mechanism to where you could open the end or it could be forced open when bringing the ax down in a fast chopping motion as though you're going to throw it. But instead send the balls out as a defensive maneuver or just to create mayhem and or distraction so you can get back to chopping? Or heavier balls like tungsten heavy with a bit of lead powder in there? Anyway thanks for your time. No criticisms, no notes. Keep doing what you're doing man. You'll always be Deadpool to me!

Years ago I asked a boilermaker mate to make me a steel handle axe, he told me it was stupid because the wood handle would flex and not impart so much shock load into my arms and hands, well I had him make it anyway!
