Summer Of Knives 2017 The Axe

[@jerrydonquixote5927]

Damn that Army hatchet I got one when I was about 8 years old for Christmas that was the greatest Christmas present I ever got! I think I enjoyed it as much as I did when I got my 20 gauge about 2 years later! Damn being a kid was fun! I am 52 and I'm still a kid! Lol

I got a red rider bb gun. And I almost shot my eye out.

Great video. One point and double-bit axe is used for felling on one side and ground cutting or grubbing on the other, they did this so they could keep a very fine edge on one side and a steamer-grind on the other for more durability

[@davidhardin5530]

[@varun009]

Does sog actually make anything used by special operations units?

[@sgtsnuggles9112]

They sent a knife to trials for the Navy SEALs, but I believe it was either quickly replaced or was never adopted.

[@888_Karma]

Excellent video. Thank you!! 👌👍

[@OhCrxzeh]

16:42 Just waiting for someone dumb enough to do that and get sprayed up with AKs 😂

[@arctodussimus6198]

Nice video. The CRKT Kangee T-Hawk is an outstanding piece of kit. Designed by Ryan Johnson of RMJ Tactical. RMJ is well known for some of the best Hawks made.

Arctodus Simus : i am testing the Crkt Rune, it s a great hatchet to ! You can cut the spike if it s too dangerous for you. The is more compact but less’powerfull

Say Heah, Soon I'll be bringing out some of mine. One of my Fav's is my 24" Council Wood Craft Pack Axe with the heavy duty sheath and sling. Also my Gransfors Bruks Small Forest Axe and one of my Fav's Bushcraft Hatchet my 17" Hultafors Bruks Agdor Hatchet. As far as a Tomahawk. I love my 3 sharp edged 2Hawks Warbeast Tomahawk. Infact it's chops almost as good as a Hatchet, but much lighter and easier to carry. But when I go on a scout and I want to go Lite yet Compact, A new Trio that I'm using is my Cold Steel SISU Bushcraft Knife, My 2Hawks Double Bit Hatchet and my Wicked Tough Saw. I also like to add my Ka-Bar Johnson Adventure Parangatang to clear through the brambles. It's really a great Summer Long Knife. But I need someone to put a new haft on my Norlund Tomahawk Hatchet. It's a very small Hatchet Head, Yeah, smaller than what I find on the internet. It still has a faint red paint on it and I don't think it was ever sharpened and absolutely no mushrooming. I bought it at a Pawn Shop at a great price.,,. p

Your Grandpa may have used the term, cord or you may misremember, a cord of wood is a stack of firewood 4'x4'x8'. Always enjoys your vids

[@3riverblades]

Lee Stephenson yes you are correct. I meant the 2 foot log cuts.

[@fúckrussia-b7h]

I own one of these books

Unless your just trimming small branches, from a very young tree, hatchets are not only dangerous, but a waste of energy. By this I mean, that a lite axe is much more productive, and safe. Let me explain ! With most hatchets, you don’t get the power in the swing an axe will provide. It’s pure physics ! Now on the safety point, not only are you more likely to miss your mark if your not completely focused, it’s closer to your body, and it’s much easier to miss, and smash your fingers on the thing your chopping ! What happens when you smash the back of your fingers, you smash, possibly loose skin, and your fingers swell up. Have you ever tried to continue with everything else when your fingers are inflamed, aching, not to mention lack of finger dexterity ? Do I have to mention that it’s much easier to miss, or deflect, and accidentally chop into your leg, or somewhere else on your body ? I’ve been a woodsman, military, hunter, logger, tree trimmer, landscaper, and all around survivalist for almost 50 years ! Opinions will very, but for my money, I take a well curved handled light axe. I’ve smashed my fingers with hatchets way more times than I could every remember ! I’d like to add, I have dozens of hatchets, but they seldom get used ! For light stuff I prefer an old 30 inch, or longer, corn knife, which is a type of machete used for corn stalks, or sugar cane. Between the light axe, and corn knife, I have all chopping, outside of large trees covered ! Anyone planning on just one blade, is not living in reality ! That’s only in extreme cases of loosing all the rest of your gear ! Hatchets are more dangerous, and you want to avoid injury in the woods as much as possible !

Hi way not try RMJ, I think RMJ axe is really great for BOB 😄

[@eduardonavarro5910]

If you want a true fighting hawk or axe, look up Mccoun tomahawk on eBay, hand forged . I highly recommend it =)

[@ParasidicGeneration]

i love to axe people questions

[@bdcochran01]

I read the comments and would like to add some thoughts. The hole in the handle has a good purpose. You can put either 550 cord or a leather strap through the same and hang the hatchet or axe instead of putting it on the floor or leaving it somewhere that a person can encounter the same and get hurt. The reason that people wear gloves when handling a hatchet or axe is because a bare wood handle against a bare hand can cause blisters. Moreover, a bare weed handle requires maintenance. I took all my hatchets/axes/shovels/hoe/rake and did the following: 1. put holes in handles that did not have holes and some 550 cord. 2. wrapped the handles with electrician tape and then tennis racket tape over it. This reduces maintenance, allows the use of bare hands, avoids blisters and hot spots, and absorbs some impact. I have repaired/reconstructed or made a couple dozen hatchets and axes. 1. if you re-handle, use hickory and purchase a long enough handle. 2. don't use the top of the hatchet or axe as a hammer, unless you are prepared to reconfigure the head when you eventually distort the same. 3. if you buy a hatchet or axe without a sheath, get one. If you don't want to make one yourself and can't otherwise find some one to make one for you, capture a youtube video on a usb stick and take it to a shoe repair place. It will have the tooling to make a sheath for you. And, be aware that you might have to move the snaps on a cover that some dude on eBay swears will fit on your hatchet or axe head.

[@pipedreams57]

For a sheath, I don't trust leather. I make my own sheath out of a piece of aluminum and then add a strap. Much safer this way especially for carrying a hunting axe inside a backpack .

I do live in sweden but I like Ukraine more then sweden

[@yourdawgskip]

Why don’t they call them Vietnamahawks?
