If I had this hachet, I would simply attach a handle to it and take it in use. But this guy is next level. Hats off to you brother 👊

[@Aleeknives]

I liked how you chamfered the edges on the back and the small detail on the bottom! Excellent cleanup and nice little additions! Great work man!

[@Brett_is_Veng]

i am always surprised by the extra steps you take long after i would have declared the project finished, the difference between a competent and an extraordinary piece every time

[@chiya2006]

Beautiful work. For people who questioned why the handle was short, this type could be used for hunting, backpacking on the mountain which is more practical being shorter so it could fit into a backpack. I have used similar once on a long trip to mountains. Its very essential tool to have beside the knife and a hand saw.

[@sdnlawrence5640]

Very nice work! Thanks for showing us how it should be done.

[@jerrystark3587]

A great restoration. This would make an excellent camp axe. Thanks!

[@woodlandbiker]

Stunning little hatched.

[@King20966]

You did a beautiful job it looks very good 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@mikem6468]

Koss, I really like your aesthetic choices you make on all of your knife and bladed tools. Keep up the great work.

[@shedmanx3640]

Now, I really like that. Fantastic work mate. The details of the chamfering and cold blueing the indent take it to the next level. Great job. 🇦🇺👍

[@SimranKaurHarry]

Very nice sir. I respect and appreciate your work 📯

[@280AI]

Great job on the head. But completely blew the handle. Have a look at some good hatchet handles and give it another try. Good luck taking the one you made out.

[@thatguythatdoesstuff7448]

Agreed, but drilling that handle out to rehang it isn't going to be difficult.

[@gordondeitz7838]

Nice project, I found a bucket of hammer heads and hatchet, ax heads. A buddy told me the hammers were black smith's hammers. I took my time and brought them all back to better then new with oak handles and sold the "set" for two grand. His offer not my number. Not bad for a bucket of rust. I'm still working with the others.

[@406751]

Love the design!

[@dixonqwerty]

Excellent job. I really like the handle design! Nice proportions, and something different. Great looking axe.

[@nightwalker5278]

Wery nice axe. Like from Russia.

Gorgeous tool. Compact, sharp as hell. This would also be a perfect thrower.

[@johnmutton799]

Nicely done sir! One of the best i have seen. Giving a tool a new lease of life is the right thing to do. You have made it look a really attractive axe. And most of all it looks a cutter. Make a fantastic carving axe. I would buy it if i saw it for sale. Well done!

[@michaelbatts7149]

As always, excellent job! You always bring your A-game to a project.

[@botolkecapABC]

Thanks, that was relaxing me a bit

[@rajbeerkaur7861]

It is very cute🤗 and nice 👌

[@ASCarvings]

End result was amazing

[@freedomisntfreeamerica7151]

The head work was excellent, but the handle was a disappointment. It was not even in the same class as your skill set. Thanks for the video!👍

[@allenwilson9656]

Exactly, and I've never seen anyone put wedges in like that

[@edenbul6140]

Allen Wilson not only weird things is wedge. I think handle should be curved

[@CloudfeatherRusticWorks]

The hang job was terrible, I'm afraid. That little shoulder creates a weak point, plus it looks pretty rough. With as much time and detail went into that head, it was ruined with that handle job.

[@hernancoronel]

I think gluing the wedges with no oil could have been a better option. The handle was much more for a hammer than for an axe, however I liked it anyway because for such a small axe it kind of fits. Great video thank you!

[@dermax_hd]

​@@hernancoronel not at all. id say a small hatched need a proper handle even more than a big axe.

[@rodmarkins.fromwv.1625]

Very nice!! Made me subscribe to your channel. Thanks for sharing.

[@franmol01]

that axe head is a work of art

[@bryce_hello]

Axe restoration videos are my secret pleasure 😂

[@kims2r]

All the comments about the handle, I really like it:) it’s a stubby 😍 could very handy in some situations and very portable

[@Onileb1]

marveling at the blade

[@lezliebeans5639]

Damn dude, you're a magician!

[@mrprocrastination25]

im not the only who thinks this looks like the axe from animal crossing right? i loved the video, i'd be more than happy to learn how to work like yours one day! hopefully it can be available in my upcoming options while im still in highschool

[@pjhalchemy]

I always appreciate the 10k strokes you put into these projects by hand and sometimes smell the metal dust while you are working. ;-P Beautiful finished piece...love the shape of it. Me too on the Chamfers on the head...perfect symmetry! New Vice? Thanks Koss, well done!

There are several female blacksmiths and knifemakers on KZbin. There are also a handful of female Master Bladesmiths in America. Follow your heart, pursue your interests; then life is more enjoyable.

Very nice. When I showed my ax that I had restored to a coworker he asked why and said nobody does that. Boom. I’ll show him this video

Tremendous job on the metal...the handle is so short though.

Adam işi biliyor abi..

[@RynoDBones]

I am a fan of the handle. It always bothers me when folks put on a handle that is so ill proportioned as to make the tool useless or even just ugly. You did a great job. I know that doesn’t mean much coming from a random person commenting on your video, but I appreciate a good handle. Haha

[@shaquilleoneal117]

Great job on 69th comment though

[@yamilespanol4527]

can this axe keep an edge? doesnt the edge need to be hardened?

[@Naramyx]

Nicely done, have you ever done katars? I think they are underrated because they are mainly used with an indonesian martial arts style.

[@reenareenami1971]

Nice and cool

[@chuchupanicorniocastillo7916]

Hey Koss, as you may know I’m also into knife making, I was thinking on buying a Grizzly H6070 belt grinder, but could you tell me if that one is good or recommend me a great belt grinder?

[@nicoxstyle]

well, i know i'm not who you're asking, but i know for a fact that jonathan katz moses uses a grizzly bandsaw, not that exact same model though. And he seems to have good knowledge and judgement when it comes to tools. so, my advice, if you can afford it then it probably is a good investment. (video for reference: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sKTPo6R3jpWKgs0 )

[@LillyLegacyWWOD]

What is the tool you are using for the fine sanding by hand?

[@coutinho4843]

Ficou maravilhosamente lindo👏👏👏👏👏

[@aleksanderwojciechowski2124]

First I thought about a longer handle, cause Polish highlanders have traditional ornamented lightweigth canelike axes, used as walking sticks, climbing pickaxes and personal weapon. Anyway great job.

[@mateoboschify]

Great Success

[@blakewestwood8096]

I would prefer a longer handle with a little more shape to it. I am not sure your wedges will hold up.

[@ganumanc7201]

You are actually good in making beautiful weapons, i have one suggestion for you, make a weapon which name is ' trishul ' as per hindu mythology, its awesome, i want to see you making trishul, please friend 😄

[@whitevine9236]

I hope your video for the long time

[@masemasemasie]

Ah yes you can in fact speak intellectual and extremely fluent English.

[@TheEdrichard]

Great work! Question, did you make the jig that you used to sand the cutting edge of the hatchet?

[@golovinmaestro287]

Hi friend. A new video has appeared on my channel about how I made a sword from Skyrim with my own hands.

[@patrickallain9045]

That is awesome

[@JB-qx8ew]

Ahh..Koss...or some say Kosm...grant..us..eyes

[@DEEPVLOGS96K]

Can anyone let me know what is that chemical he used for that black colour he put up on the hatchet??

[@nicoxstyle]

Ferric chloride probably. Could be cold blue , maybe.

[@vbonz6239]

After recovery, you can use it to cut paper enough to let me know how well you recovered !

[@angerytoad]

I never would have thought to burn the handel. Real gienius stuff, well done

[@logananderon9693]

Why did the handle have a sticker mark?

[@88wolffy]

I appreciate your style quite a lot. The decision not to include information about what you are doing as most other channels I’ve seen do (e.g., “T6160 stainless” or “heat to 1850 for 2 hours) is oddly nice. It doesn’t distract the viewer, but more importantly for me, I don’t feel like I can’t look away for fear I’ll miss something. I hope I’m not sounding disrespectful. Nice work.
