[@jamesmtdownie]

Question. Alot of people forge weld harder steel into the blade. Does that matter much?

[@danielivanov3463]

Exellent

[@ericjensen260]

You do great work man. My only issue is that to my understanding a Hewing axe is offset to one side, so that it splits the wood away straight and even for squaring up logs.

[@1873Winchester]

That's one tradition, in Finland and Sweden double beveled hewing axes are the most common type. Almost completely unheard of in my region when it comes to single bevels. Google billnäs hewing axes for some examples. Also the swedish Gränsfors 1900 is still made and is most commonly sold as a double bevel, but can be had in all styles.

[@argyleforge]

Nice, what was the billet size you started with and what alloy do you recommend?

[@keesflakes6211]

amazing axe dude, really enjoyed this layed back video!! keep up the nice work :)

[@rubenludwick9473]

Wait so is it all mild steel? Or all steel that is hardenable?

[@kevangogh]

I'd like to buy one of these but couldn't find your website...

[@garypickering7981]

Beautiful work. Unable to get on your website looking at cost of this item

[@sam_lada]

Great video Paul! Ever considered to make a finnish collard axe? Ive made a few and they are quite difficuld😉

[@PaulPinto]

Thank you! And I’ve seen a few of them but maybe I’ll give it a shot soon

[@martinbissonnette257]

Can you do an updated shop tour?

[@PaulPinto]

That’s a good idea!

[@user-lt6hp1sb1s]

ขวานสวยมากครับ

[@honakerblacksmithing]

How do you like the ameribrade grinder been thinking about getting one?

[@PaulPinto]

I love it! It’s been working great so far. If you get one from them tell them I sent you

[@user-mm1nh1jn9j]

👍🏻

[@aguilayserpiente]

Dear Mr. Pinto, what was the total cost to equip your shop? What video editing software do you use? Fine video.

[@martinlaramie2797]

Nice ! it's for sale?

[@D100janovski]

Perfect axe, but aren't hewing axes supposed to be single beveled?

[@mgmcd1]

Hew did a great job! Is that the first time you’ve made one? Axeing for a friend. (Sorry for the dad jokes, Father’s Day is coming up and I need to get in shape.)

[@PaulPinto]

Haha thanks! And it’s the first one I’ve made

[@nihatbahtiyar6431]

@@PaulPinto bende bir tane sipariş vermek isterim yardımcı olurmusunuz

[@junkman1561]

Indeed a good-looking axe, but to make an authentic hewing axe, it has to be perfectly flat on one side. So they are made for a left hand or right hand person.

[@NKG416]

how many hours did it take to forge this?

[@PaulPinto]

Probably like 3 but the filming adds some time

[@NKG416]

@@PaulPinto do you think it's possible to forge a single piece axe from leaf spring, about 1 cm thick ( kinda little less than 1/2 inch thick)

[@davidoliver2826]

Very nice craftsmanship! I have been looking for a quality made 19” forest/boys axe. Interested?

[@PaulPinto]

Thank you!! I Definitely am send me a message [e-mail]

[@davidoliver2826]

Paul Pinto looks like nice work and I would be interested in having you forging a small forest/ boys or pack axe if you would be interested. If you could give me some information like steel used , handle wood and price that would be great. Thanks, looking forward to hearing from you soon.

[@jacobsnyder8738]

Yeah, I'd take that axe into battle.

[@tommasofossati5123]

Make a large Eye with the handle passing from the top of the axe: better fitting, stronger and simple, no wedges needed!

[@oscarsimpsonjacka7917]

I may be wrong but isn’t that just putting an axe head on a tomahawk handle

[@tommasofossati5123]

@@oscarsimpsonjacka7917 same thing, tapered Eye and handle matching and locking. Also Is Quick changable, which Is wow on a hewing axe, depending on where you are working on you throw a different handle in the axe

good idea, i want make~! My channel subscription👍😆 좋아요~!

[@LoganBiren]

I think you have a real talent there but I don’t think you show it. It seems like all you seem to be doing that is showing your skills are straightening the piece at the anvil after main forging is done by a press and grinding. It’s a lovely tool you made but it’s disappointing that you aren’t showing your true skills
