The Laser Beam Axe - hand splitting big knotty rounds of firewood

After a tree removal job , I pop in unannounced and start hand splitting these big knotty firewood rounds , the laser beam axe and the Wood Bullet put a hurt on this wood

[@T3hJones]

I am sure that there is something deep in our DNA that make us feel great when swinging and axe.

[@NickPixelTV]

Agree with this big time, just told my wife the other night i feel like it’s in the blood. Love these videos Buckin’

[@topchoppers7980]

It really does get in your blood, I've been a timber cutter for 12 years now and do res tree service too and I am absolutely the happiest when I'm on a saw or swinging an axe there is a very simple satisfaction in it peace and love my friends

[@buddyboy4200]

[@mistermatt9056]

I did Karate for 33 years, used to be an instructor. So there are movements I do that are just natural to me; I do them without thinking. This is the same way BBR splits wood. That axe is just an extension of his spirit. I could watch it all day!

[@johnhudson6469]

The laser beam was my introduction to the world of Buckin Billy Ray! What a fateful day in my life! Things have never been the same! And I’m glad! Love you Buckin and the Buckin army! Thanks❤️🪓

[@yooperquestionmark24]

Buckin, I sat down after an exhausting day at work in the hospital. 15 minutes into the video, I paused it to go out to split a few pieces of firewood. I’m still exhausted, but I’m invigorated!

I'm at about an 11.5 on the gratitude and spiritual scale currently. I'm grateful for this channel honestly. It really just started synchronizing with everything not only because of the tree industry. But about the whole direction and style of business That no one understands. It runs off karma. And one man. Helping his community with his lifeline and powersaw.

[@johns4584]

You have fast/deft hands. When the "Laser beam" bounced rather than split, you rotated the bit in your hands in your back swing. I try to learn something new every day, today that move was it. Thanks for what you do, stay safe in your journey.

[@bradmullins229]

My Wife was really into your tree falling videos until your your first snot rocket blow, I laughed so hard at her response......

[@moose1164]

I've got to say this channel has grew my skills exponentially in all aspects of wood from axes, saws, wedges and overall mentality. Watching these videos every day how could you not learn something and not become better? I'm a wood splitting lover whereas before I hated it. Now I know why. I wasn't good at it and relied on strength and luck which tired me out quickly. I could go on for days about what I've learnt solely from these videos. Thank you Buckin for these consistent uploads and always sharing your knowledge with us. Seriously!

[@moosa9850]

Subscribed, just because of the energy that oozes from him as he swings the axe and his not pretentious.

[@user-bb6iw2vw8k]

Game Changer Buckin! we can’t wait to be able to swing the bullet! And it’s so amazing to me a fellow woodman, how I could literally just sit here n watch you swing those axes! Your knowledge, wisdom, and experience not just on wood and axes and so much more but on life and how to live is inspiring us all to strive to be better! Ty friend

[@akersjon278]

Neighbor: Hiya buckin', you look happy today. Buckin' - Yep, had a physical therapy session, feel great! Neighbor: - Oh yeah, whats the name of your therapist? Buckin': - Laser beam...

“I just like my axes man!” ~B.B.R.

[@donsmith3314]

My friend, I'm telling you the straight truth here! Your videos have created a whole new passion for me. Watching the work you do has driven me to get trained in operating power saws in an area where all falling is mechanized. It has led me to begin operating a small firewood business, and I have found a love for going out and cutting wood. My Arvika 5 star and I spend a lot of time together, as well as my 372 when I am out in the woods. Am I learning? You bet! Slowly but surely. Making errors along the way in sharpening both the saw and the axe, getting both stuck in the wood, but I am out there at age 48 learning by myself as I go. And for that, I thank you from the bottom of my heart! Love to all!

Hey Buckin', last weekend I was splitting to stock up my old Mothers wood store after the winter and I got into some bigger rounds than I'm used to, I'd have been there all week if I'd not seen your advice about chipping off the sides! You do great work, and like the rest of the community here, I appreciate you sharing your expertise, thank you.

[@tomaspacheco6029]

Thanks Buckin you've really helped me improve my splitting, but you've given me a problem, so my wife says, I have to many axes. She tells me how many do you need, I tell her just one more!

[@willisfranks2476]

Can not wait till you start producing the axes to the masses. I know I will be buying. You are the "Man". Take Care, Stay Safe and Be Kind...

[@CaliforniaCarpenter7]

Your videos got me back into hand splitting and I’m very grateful for that. I’ve got a big splitter, and I had been processing firewood with it, but for a couple of years now I’ve switched back to swinging and honestly I feel like it takes *less effort* at the end of the day. I’m smack dab in the middle of the woods and my firewood is often pretty far from the road. Now I just split it where the tree lays and load a wheelbarrow that I push to the truck. Cheers, brother! I took down a 33” California Black Oak this morning and I got some swinging in! My hands hurt like hell, but I’ll sleep well tonight!

[@dabee4848]

Buckin does it again. I settle down at night, watch the latest Buckin vid and the day just melts away! It always lifts my Spirit to watch and listen to this guy. Keep at it Buckin'. We're behind ya friend!

Always amazes me how a guy can split fir over and over again and never seem to get tired of it. Green fir splits like butter more often than not. The only wood that I think splits easier is green alder or green maple. Fir is always tougher at the base of the tree to split. Buckin never seems to get tired of this stuff 🪓.

Awesome video to relax to man just splitting, that laser is one hell of a axe beautiful work

[@alexstark5568]

love the content buckin, this video has compelled me to look at axes on eBay for a couple hours. Luckily I’ve found multiple candidates for a laxer beam of my own, I even found an old Kelly real similar to the wood bullet. I already have two plumbs but I don’t really use them for splitting on account of their thin profile and the lack of softwoods in my area. I’ll make sure keep y’all updated on any future projects. Love always and be kind my friends

[@clausiusuf]

The axe isn’t a laser, you are. The ace goes exactly where you want it. Lol.

[@mikeliuzza4109]

Buckin, I'm surprised that you and I use the same handkerchief, my god man, you so funny! The laser beam axe is tremendous. You always make my day when you split timbers, it's something I never had to do. In fact, firewood is used in my town for esthetic purposes only, we use electricity to heat our homes. The was a time many years ago when I was dating my wife that her house was heated by a floor furnace heated by natural gas. You are knocking out the firewood, each Axe you use handles the job perfectly.

[@richardsullivan1776]

I really like hickory handles and some fiberglass. Fiskars X27 is a splitting axe, they have an eight pound Isocore maul too. Well worth the $60 price tag for the X27. Husqvarna has a line made by Gardena in the European Union (EU). I also have the Husqvarna S2800 splitting axe with a 27 1/2 '' handle and five pound head. It retails for $99 and you can pound aluminum bangers with the oversized poll, its well worth the price again especially if you split a lot of balsam fir for campfires, like I do. They can't replace the nostalgia of the "Old Hickory" but the heads have a more modern design, specifically for splitting purposes and stick deeper than a traditional felling axe.

Hey Buckin! Just recently fully subscribed to your channel but have been watching it blow up for a while now. I wanted to thank you for being such a positive friend and giving me the boost I needed to start refurbishing old axes. The timings great too bc I just moved up to Montana. I was wondering if you could do a video on a proper maul refurbishing/sharpening. I don't think I've ever seen you do one and watching your 500i vs 426 video I noticed your old man's mauls got some DANGEROUS mushrooming goin on. I'd love to see a video of you knocking the fragments off and putting a deadly edge on em!
