felling a tree with a restored vintage axe!

[@Brian2bears]

A job well done, sir. The video, the restoration, the chopping methodologies and pace, excellent...

[@elemental4rce]

looks like a well setup axe. i'm still working on getting myself a decent condition conneticut. nice clean axe work and good to see you managed to retain a hinge on it. Shame you're not in the UK! Keep turning out vids please! the more real axe content out there the better!

[@beavercreekwoodcraft8134]

That connie is my baby, with all of the cool and unique axes I have, its the one I always reach for. Thanks for watching!

[@brettbrown9814]

You are seriously my hero! Keep it up Dude!

[@beavercreekwoodcraft8134]

Wow, I dont know what to say to that, but I'll definitely keep goin!

[@FirelightFirewood]

Wow awesome video I did this with a full axe and double the tree size on my channel and it took me way to long this shows how important it is to have a sharp axe I have a like and a sub!

[@KevinsDisobedience]

Sweet axe. Nice cross wedging. Also nice clean face cut. I don’t know how much it matters with small trees, but it’s what I like to see.

[@elemental4rce]

i'd consider that a fair sized tree and it's definitely important to get your face cut clean and accurate if you want something that size to come down with any control.

[@KevinsDisobedience]

I don’t disagree

[@KillingerUSA]

I see you!

[@KevinsDisobedience]

@@KillingerUSA Lol quit following me. Jk. We all seem like bees homing in on new axe content. Lol

[@beavercreekwoodcraft8134]

@@elemental4rce i always looked at it like this, If the tree is big enough to kill me or do serious damage, I better take the time to do the job right so I know where its gunna go. On a side not, I was surprised my holding wood mostly broke after it fell. Odd for such stringy wood.

[@Loindeehaa]

Kerrassaan kunnollista ja tarkkaa työtä hienon kirveen kanssa!

[@adamboone6864]

Well done. Nice notch. Good control.

[@lancemillward2462]

first few strikes i wondered what he was doing. LOL. Shows what I know, he was marking the cut. Well done. Dropped nicely

[@KillingerUSA]

[@beavercreekwoodcraft8134]

Thanks JC

[@blakespower]

can you imagine the early european settlers having to do this to clear the land for farmland all by hand then they had to get a beast of burden to help pull out the stump from the ground the early Settlers had to be STRONG AF!

[@RSG_lol]

That notch was almost perfect

Thank you Mr Gibbons!

[@stowellsoutdoor2673]

Awesome sauce!

[@beavercreekwoodcraft8134]

Thanks Nick!

[@claudius.6444]

Excellent video with a lot of things to learn. The axe also seems nice. What weight is it?

[@beavercreekwoodcraft8134]

Thank you! The axe is a Collins Legitimus Connecticut with a head weight just under 3 1/2#

[@jakefehr9681]

What is the handle length on that beauty?

[@beavercreekwoodcraft8134]

Its a 28" that started off as a House Handle Co baseball bat. It seems the originals were on a 28 as well

[@laciihasz4734]

There were plenty of fallen trees to test cut ur axe, can't see the reason why u had to cut down a live tree. The axe is nice tho.

[@beavercreekwoodcraft8134]

This was not test cutting. It was felling a tree, one of many that were part of a selective harvest. Thanks for watching!

[@laciihasz4734]

@@beavercreekwoodcraft8134 In that case i see no problem with it at all👍
