How To Strip Down Knotty Cedar

[@zeteny741]

Lady! You know what you are doing! :D When the notification popped up, it only showed: "Nicole Coenen uploaded a new video: How to strip..."

[@NicoleCoenen]

😂 didn't realize it would do that!

[@misolgit69]

one of the best displays of safe splitting and kindling prep techniques I have seen in a long while 👏

[@LaLa-ig5jf]

Nicole’s comment sections are always so genuine and wholesome 💕

[@thaliaperales9610]

Youll see a few thirsty comments but pretty much wholesome😂

[@NicoleCoenen]

I really appreciate them :)

[@LaLa-ig5jf]

@@thaliaperales9610 that I must say is true 😅

[@moose.knuckle]

Go bake me a pie

[@IdiosyncraticKnot]

I love love love the sounds in this video ❤️ Crunchy snappy echoing booming sounds 🥰

[@IdiosyncraticKnot]

I wish I could know the smell of cedar. But I have the smell of the Australian bush, so I can't be greedy 🇦🇺

[@Torana-gz5ls]

One of your best uploads. Love it. But as an older male, I'm so jealous of your guns.😅

[@pseudotasuki]

This video was knot informative!

[@NicoleCoenen]

Well, Sir, it's Knot my problem if you did Knot find this helpful

[@pseudotasuki]

@@NicoleCoenen It was very informative. About knots!

[@JubeiKibagamiFez]

1:21 I know it comes with a lot of practice, but your aim is insane. If I tried to chop on that thin line, it would not be pretty when I got done.

[@johnglowacki5515]

Nichole, if you made a video like this every day, I would watch it.

[@rescues_greyhounds]

As someone who is allergic to cedar, I thank you for your service!

[@seanhoutx]

2:28 - "knot bad."

[@lpeterman]

Your smile and physical presence are wonderful, but it's the double entendres that keep me coming back for more. "Stripping down knotty cedar", indeed. Cheers from a former West Kootenay Guy, now in the Willamette Valley, Oregon.

[@LawtonDigital]

100% agree with everything you said Option B: when I'm cutting the rounds myself, I'll make my cuts above and below the big knots. This gives me fewer 16" rounds, but they're super easy to split. This will produce a few smaller rounds with knots, I'll split the knot-free parts of these smaller rounds into kindling and leave the knots as chunks to toss into an already established campfire.

[@nicorololololo7046]

fishtre I have to use a translator to tell you: I too love cutting and splitting logs. walking with my dog ​​and exploring the mountains without necessarily having a goal. In short, I love what you do because that’s what I love too. A big hello from France 😉😉😊😊

[@robynearl]

I live in Missouri and just found your channel. We burn and chop wood. I think your channel is my new obsession. Makes me want to chop more wood! I love cedar too. We have so much cedar where I live. It crackles so nicely when you burn it. I actually live on "Cedar Hills" near a conservation area. Sending love to you!!❤

[@Daveweasel-o1s]

I was a pulpwood logger for five years in Louisiana. You impress me!

[@Dominick_Francione]

Great video. You’ve really honed your skills 🪓🪵💪. Well done. One tip: when checking moisture content, you will get a more accurate reading if you split the wood and take a reading from the long grain inside the split.

[@kurtjmac]

Well now I'm eagerly awaiting a @theslowmoguys collab thanks to this video!

[@prioritytree]

Absolutely Amazing Nicole!

[@TimMacPA]

It's been years since we moved from our farmhouse which was heated with wood and coal. And every cord of wood was cut with chainsaws, axes, and mauls. I kept 20-30 cords available consistently. I miss those days, it kept this old body in pretty good shape.

[@Fimbulmyrk]

Btw, folks, some of the smaller axes she uses she has forged herself. Nicole, you are really awesome allround, but this Video ist on another level. Really comprehensive and clear. I honestly love your way to squirrell your way through some of your other Videos, being a squirrell myself, but it is really awesome how professionally you present this one. Very cool!❤ I learned a lot!

[@fireabend_1226]

Hello Nicole, another great video. Great pictures, sound and effects. I'm looking forward to the next videos. 😊👍

[@DianeMcCall-v7f]

Fabulous! So strong and confident- you look like an Olympian, not an ordinary mortal 😊

[@jerrybrimhall7951]

Thank you Nicole.

[@RheaSeiros]

Came for the muscles stayed for the amazing tips!

[@philiplewis8213]

Who would have thought, not too long ago, that we would be watching a woman chop logs into firewood and kindling and enjoy it? Even look forward to the next?

[@TramJizzle]

I've split my fair share of wood and Nicole puts me to shame. Great video !

[@loka2479]

[@acesmith3092]

Absolutley loved this vid..... i have a firewood buisness in SW Oklahoma, US and i sell predominately Mesquite. Veriry similar knot splits!

[@PurpleL4bel]

wow you reminds of me chopping wood for ccold night when i was a kid. and had to9 subscribe. lovely.

[@williammattes1991]

Found you through others reacting to you. Gonna say damn I wish I had your arm, abs, and body in general. You are a personal transition goal both for my weight loss, and if I ever can, transition

[@scottperine8027]

[@JubeiKibagamiFez]

Also, you the best hatchets I've ever seen.

[@NicoleCoenen]

I'm going to be selling them soon! I'll be launching a website with an axe store. Sign up for my newsletter in the description to know when that's happening😃

[@JubeiKibagamiFez]

@@NicoleCoenen Are you gonna be restoring more? Or has your collection gotten to big?

[@elizabethstam5208]

Hello from Oregon! You and I have SO MUCH in common it's almost weird. 😅 But seriously wishing there was a way we could chat or something..

[@kizzmitten1]

Your videos are getting so good! I love this one. Also, your arms are looking great! Scary actually, haha!

[@kingboggles688]

That cedar with the knots could also make some beautiful bowls. Have you ever tried any wood carving with hand tools?

[@williamfleming2918]

Ooooo, that crisp cedar "crack".

[@wickedpissa25]

It's nice to get knotty every once in a while.

[@suetraptor2703]

anyone see the way the fibres of her muscles vibrate when she hits the wood? like the impact goes all the way up the arm. so cool.

[@lovinglife69]

I love the smell of cedar. Thanks Nicole 💪 💜 🪓

[@MitchellBallard]

Question! What made you choose this hobby/profession? Why do you like chopping wood? Like.. What is it for YOU?

[@PaulBielicki]

My eye was drawn to the hatchets you were using. Where did you find those? I couldn't place a manufacturer's mark on them.

Hi Nicole Fun fun fun

[@vellorenitin]

I have a genuine question, i know that you love nature and trees from the shorts and vudeos you make, how does is make you feel when you split the trunk? Did u ever feel bad for doing that? Just curious

[@PeTTs0n88]

Cedar just really screams kindling to me. ^^

[@alexhale2696]

I hated chopping wood when it was cold out, and the wood had sap all in it; the axe or sledge hammer would just bounce off of it when you made contact with it, causing your tool to vibrate down the handle to the grip, going into your fingers. It makes me cringe just thinking about it! And I started chopping wood when I was 12! 😅

[@3rupees10]

LOVE YOU NICOLE OWO

[@magnuswammerfors5769]

Good video! But way dont you use "backswing" when you split?

[@davedemyan3302]

I've split a fair bit of wood and after the first few months I settled on a full round house swing. I think the momentum is more that way.

[@richardhatt6541]

Incredible deltoids!

[@terrancevangemert7508]

if you have toilet paper rolls you can use those to stuff your bark kindling into.

[@robertbinkley6697]

I really like the sword she is using "Okie Dokie Wood Splitting Sword", Can any point me to the right direction to purchase one? Rob Florida

[@YoFreshBean]

I have a legit, curious question that may sound stupid but im insanely curious XD Is it possible to chop wood to this level with one arm? It'd probably take alot of practice but I like to think its possible XD

[@Thczero]

Please Merry me :D :D No, nice video and good work. Salute for Czech Republic. :)

[@Herbert_Eder]

Lovely, but ... is that a glitch in the Matrix or what happened? This is a new upload but i am quite sure i have seen this before? What's happening?

[@JubeiKibagamiFez]

0:27 Knots comes from a cut off or broken branch or do knots form with existing branches?

[@iamnotcreative4041]

knots are formed in the trunk of the tree by branches growing out of it, so as a branch grows the knot in the log would grow too at least that's what I understand it to be.

[@bloognoo]

Yep, all branches grow from the heart wood and out through the side, creating knots to navigate. By the time you get to log splitting, all branches have been broken or cut off.

[@JubeiKibagamiFez]

@@iamnotcreative4041 Oh, okay. I had read something somewhere that knots were cancerous growths and trees just naturally isolate abnormal growth.

[@iamnotcreative4041]

​@@JubeiKibagamiFezeveryone picks up some misconceptions somewhere but it is nice to know the truth

I have a question! How do you wash sap off your hands and things? It's such a pain

[@davedemyan3302]

Mayonnaise, butter or any cooking oil. I worked in the woods for years and one of the most annoying parts of the job was pulling gobs of pitch from my beard and chest hair. On a fire, this logger from Colville, asked why I was pulling my hair out. He threw me a packet of mayo and said try this. It dissolves pitch immediately. It removes pitch from the steering wheel of the truck, tools, hair, and skin. Packets of mayonnaise are an item in my saw box😊
