Yay! Jill Swan’s video on your channel was an early one for me, and the first one I recommend to new carvers! Thrilled to see a part 2! I was “star struck” to carve with Jill online! Cheers!

[@Zedoutdoors]

Sincerely appreciate the kind words and a round 2 with Jill was long overdue ~Peace~

Nice one Jill.....I'm missing your lovely log fire.....and the floor....it's concrete. Never seen that before!🤣 Thanks for bringing this to us Zed!

A sincere thank you for watching and for the kind words ~Peace~

[@jamesmiddleton6464]

I tried to save this for later in December but I couldn't wait. Lovely to see you both. I still say if English Heritage had half the brains they aspire to, then they would give Zed a generous stipend to produce this type of documentary all over the country.

[@Zedoutdoors]

James compliments will get you everywhere, a sincere thank you for your kind and generous words my man ~Peace~

[@robertlockery3454]

You two are awesome I’d love to learn from you guys and hang out one day!!!!!!

As always Maurice thank you so much for your kind wirds and for your support ~Peace~

[@kenedgerly6473]

So impressed with your control. I've been working on learning to use an axe and can never seem to hit the same exact spot twice. Guess it's probably about practice. Great video!

Indeed it's all about practise and many thanks for watching Ken ~Peace~

Jill is brilliant. Always learn a lot from her. Great teacher! Thank you for this. P.S. The background music was distracting. Your videos are great Zed. Like the peeks around and you have a great eye for letting us see the carving.

[@Zedoutdoors]

I sincerely appreciate your kind words and for watching Teresa thank you ~Peace~

[@CarlCampbell]

Love this idea! I usually strip the bark right off my billets immediately, but after watching this video I think I'll be holding back next time!

[@Zedoutdoors]

Indeed yes most of us strip the bark off so this is a cool way of incorporating it into the design ~Peace~

Great to see how your channel has developed since I first discovered it back in the year of "Swamp Bushcraft Show" Very interesting vid, thanks, something tranquil in these times of mayhem and nonesense. Cheers Ian

[@balista9831]

has it really been 5 years ! i'd just begun carving and it was raining that day if i remember.

[@Zedoutdoors]

It really has, shocked me when I stopped to think about it, how time flies! ~Peace~

[@michellegiles4152]

Loved the video thanks so much. Can you give us a link to purchase good axes and hatches please. I only find junky ones

[@Zedoutdoors]

Hi Michelle thank you for your kind words, reg hatches it all depends on your budget and where you live. For a more affordable range I would recommend 'Wood Tools' in the UK and 'Greenhaven Forge' in the US ~Peace~

[@michellegiles4152]

Thank you

[@madsingh]

awesome vid thanks guys :)

[@Zedoutdoors]

Thank you kindly Nimai ~Peace~

[@dyvel]

I believe she's using the Gränsfors bruks wildlife hatchet. I believe that is the case because that's the one I'm yearning for :)

[@Zedoutdoors]

Indeed yes I think you're right! i''ve been using their hand hatchet for quite sometime and will hopefully be upgrading to a Soulwood Creations axe soon ~Peace~

[@dieabsolutegluckskuche5174]

Your channel is superb, I wish I found it earlier.

You are very kind my friend thank you! ~Peace~

Great video. "MM" on the axe stands for Mattias Mattsson and "AS" stands for Anders Strömstedt.

[@Zedoutdoors]

Ah nice I appreciate the clarification thank you Torgny! ~Peace~

[@lesliecrowther7004]

High Zed, another great video sir, Jill's a damn good carver too, her scorp is something else, what a tool that is, she mentions Nick westerman, and also Lee stoffer, I guess nick makes the blades and lee makes the handles, does lee get the blades from nick and put it all together ?? Big question, how much would it cost ? Would i need to be seated when you give me the shock. This might give you a laugh!! When jill was doing her axe work and some of the cutting, I found myself tilting and turning my phone I time with her did make me feel a bit silly lol . Yet again all the best Be lucky. Les.

[@Zedoutdoors]

Hi Leslie first of all thank you for your kind words, Reg the Scorp, prices change so not sure what Lee charges nowadays. I must stress though that they sell out within minutes of him putting out a batch so you do have to be incredibly quick, well worth it though if you are able to get one ~Peace~

[@jacobitejake]

Jill's a lovely lady :)

[@Zedoutdoors]

Amen to that Jake ~Peace~

[@nicolegibbons5784]

i just started spoon carving. I woke up at 430 am with visions of spoons. I wish I could talk with Jill Swan. I love the idea to leave the bark on. Does she have an email address so I could ask her questions?

[@Zedoutdoors]

Hi Nicole you are more than welcome to message Jill, the best way is via her Instagram which I have linked to in the description just below the video ~Peace~

Lovely spoons. Especialy like the birch. The music is a bit annoying. I have tinnitus so that may be why. Sort of like trying to read when the music is on. Some can and for some it is quite hard.

I would love to keep watching your videos, but I am not not going to use KZbin as they insist on banning voices because of their opinions and points of view. I hope you will start to post your videos on Rumble, because that is where I am now going to watch streaming videos. I am sick and tired of big tech trying to control which voices we can and cannot listen to.

[@Zedoutdoors]

Indeed yes it's very sad to see what is happening across all the major platforms ~Peace~
