Survival AXES 101: Types & Uses

[@ONThree]

Some people said they couldn’t hear anything. That was an issue on KZbin’s end. Please watch again. I’ve listened to it and so has several friend. None of them has any sound issue. Thanks for watching! Let me know what axe is your favorite.

what do you use for a camera

[@MichaelRobertson-i8f]

Being 74 years old and having carpenters in my family, the Plumber roofing axe has always been my favorite, it was used to cut the wood shingles to size and hammer them into place.

Interesting, I don't think I've ever seen all the varieties of axe's. I do have a mall, a medium size axe, and a small hatchet. But I generally use the chainsaw when I need it. I'm in the southwest desert and I can count on one hand how many days I wear a jacket. We have the extreme heat to deal with down here, but I've lived here in So.Az and have learned what my limitations are. But I really appreciate your craftsmanship especially with wood and minimalist tools. Thank you Jason 🙏👍 Just a thought, maybe somehow put a Ferro rod in the hollow end of the axe and mount it on your SHTF motorcycle? 🤔

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Cool idea!

[@dsimp765]

@@Nyeupe-Nguvu Axe me later 😂

[@Valor515]

Great info, keep it up.

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Thanks, will do!

[@RomeoDelta-gw7dd]

I do carry a small hand axe in my pack. Between the hand axe and the silky big boy I can handle most tasks on the trail

[@timc46440]

Mic got the axe

[@Walterliquori]

People have hit those fiskars with sledgehammers in cold weather too they are bombproof. Thanks for the video

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Crazy!

[@user-McGiver]

the first weapon a human(noid] used was a stone... followed by a pointed, or broken [edgy] stone... soon a stick was added to the stone, for extra reach... and the first axe was born... when the metal [copper first] came into use, axes were the first tools/weapons to be made... the first swords that followed were the Egyptian ''khopesh'' actually an evolution to the axe... just keeping the edge to make it longer, but lightweight... that's why the ''weird shape''... straight blades came later... (useless info of the day...)

[@asmith7876]

The Cold Steel Trail Boss stays at the campsite, the Trailhawk or Hudson Bay hawk is for back packing, unless I'm bringing the Council Tools Camp Carver, that thing is amazing! Nice overview, nice collection.

[@SlasherSociety09]

Man i think its a good thing how you bring things back to a reasonable level with your mindset and approach. Its cool to see what some utuber cooks up using an exotic combination of sponsor driven products to achieve an unrealistic objective. But it gives people the wrong idea and causes discontent when there really shouldnt be any. So man here you are and your entertaining without feeding the " buy more beast". What would you think about making "101 sniper veil hacks and the time you had a sniper veil fail" video? You dont have to answer right now. Thank you sir

[@The-Collapse-of-Civilization]

Which one?! ALL OF THEM (and then some more… can never have enough)

[@alextaylor9521]

When I was 15 years old splitting wood regularly for a wood stove I really liked a double headed axe. Now I was dealing with perfect logs, old telephone poles, so that might have had something to do with it. I was also small so I just couldn’t swing a maul all day. I really liked how accurate I could be with the double headed axe. And I could get it moving way faster than other axes.

[@BoxcutterBushcraft]

I typically carry a slightly modified Gransfors Bruk Outdoor Axe. It'll take down what I need, it'll split wood for the fire and it's small enough to do fine work.

[@withoutfurtheradoforever]

I have the Fiskars in my truck. I have the handle wrapped with paracord and have a survival kit in the hollow handle. I got that idea from Luke at Outdoorboys channel.

[@sixshooter4570]

I own only one ax at this time. I would like to have a felling ax. The one I do have is a Gransfors Bruks Scandinavian small Forest Axe, I'm going to make a leather handle protector for the wood.

[@jeffechols5302]

Very informative see ya on the next one

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Thanks!

[@blueridgerealtor]

Great video

[@tylertapp131]

So wild this just got posted, ive been workin on an axe handle for a good majority of the day today. Just got back in and cleaned up, and just sat down with a plate of food when i saw this 😂, good stuff god bless from ole Carolina.

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Very cool!

[@charlessalmond7076]

Excellent video sir!

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Thank you kindly!

[@DanielMeloAraujo]

I'm Brazilian and I can say that the machete is much more common here, you can find one in practically every house, but axes and hatchets are very rare, and there are few quality options on the market.

[@RatsAndFunTV]

For about the Fiskars , when i have seen in a north pole expedition than they use it, i was really sure than nothing could appen.

[@cwsmith17]

Great video!

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@elevatorman7750]

Great video brother

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Thanks!

[@thevirginiabushcrafter8833]

Every Bush Crafter is advised to own and efficiently use an Axe / Hatchet.

[@flingshotlife]

What state are you located? I just ask because of the open end shelter you’re working out of, does it close up? I wondered how cold it gets there in the winter. I don’t think I ever paid attention to that before.. Thank you for the content. I heard it fine.

[@Troy-nr7ku]

If you don't think you need an ax, a hatchet, or at least a tomahawk in your kit, your not thinking about survival. Trust me your going to wish you had one if you don't in that situation.

[@andymaciosek212]

Great video but you really should grind the mushroom off the end of the maul. Would hate to see you get a chunk of ace stuck in you

[@66bigbuds]

I always thought Fiskers was plastic junk. But now some of the quality brands are making a version with polymer handle.

[@bobbymills4476]

Your sound is out

[@chris1638]

Very odd. No isse while I listened to it

[@66bigbuds]

The boys axe also called a cruiser was made for carry. But now we all carry a lighter version. I have one axe that you could shave with.

[@GBall_Vision]

Fiskars is the way

[@danielandrews7028]

The best axe is the “GOLDEN AXE”

[@bobbymills4476]

I can't hear you

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Very strange. I think it was a KZbin issue.

[@davidglazener7921]

Axpert??

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Ahahahah. Good one!

[@kentgreenough75]

Fiskars is a Finnish company, but their axes with the composite handles are made in China these days. They usually need a sharpening or two to get to a good edge, the initial edge chips a lot. I live in Finland and never,ever heard of a composite handle breaking in the cold, even in Lapland. Fiskars now offers a line of Nord axes and hatchets, half wood, half composite handles.
