The Ultimate Axe Video Haul

[@RaanDohmSchitt]

I clicked on this guy a few days earlier out of boredom. Here I am, after like 20 videos later, knowing all kinds of things about axes :))

[@theone2-three438]

The knowledge he shares Is definitely useful but it is different when you do this for yourself.

[@gautam9]

Doing the same, and I live in a city ...

[@sdig]

if I was an axe manufacturer. you would be my chief consultant.

[@wranglerstar]

+Steven DiGregorio Thank you Steven,

[@booj3432]

Simp

[@foreskinius5654]

Elias Harben you dumbass he said that 4 years ago

[@theone2-three438]

I think a lot of manufacturers don’t have any people that have ever even seen an axe

[@cott1494]

Your channel is calming and I like it.

[@jakethepeasant]

I have no use for axes, but I really like watching his videos anyway! Very calming.

[@graysonallender7019]

Cott14 you suck

[@graysonallender7019]

I like it to

[@graysonallender7019]

But at least I am not a baby

[@danielroncaioli6882]

He’s like Bob Ross, but with axes.

[@Akademee]

Psssh, I'm not going to watch an 18 minute unboxing video... (18 minutes later) ...dang it.

[@wranglerstar]

+Akademee ha!

[@Trent711]

Haha

[@staciestark2636]

2 years late but i just got the hatchet for 37 dollars.

[@cactuscamo9685]

Lol yeah time is weird

[@subungulate]

Watch it at 2X speed: All the information and half the disappointment.

[@LAW5784]

Cody, you remind me of Mr. Rogers with shop tools! I have followed you for a year now and I've enjoyed your family and videos. thank you very much for your kind spirit and wholesome content. You and family are in my prayers and may God continue to prosper your endeavors.

[@NorwegianWoods]

That is more axes than you would ever need for the rest of your life :) Thanks for sharing - Martin

[@HikeHuntHaul]

I know this video is three years old but I truest enjoyed watching an unboxing of italian axes. New tools to me are really fun to watch unboxing. It’s that first impression. Great video! Did you do a follow up video for these axes? Would definitely like to see that video(s) also. Great channel! Super happy I stumbled upon it. ;-)

[@sawyere2496]

Especially since they’re such nice axes

[@random_eskimo_in_the_rockies]

Cody, none of Europe has hickory trees. There are 5,000 year old hickory fossils, but they were wiped out during a climactic change and never came back. Eastern Asia has 3-5 varieties, but they've never made it over the mountains into Europe. America has just about 20 varieties of hickory. Early European settlers took a while to recognize the benefits of hickory.

[@cadmuscurtis4794]

Thanks for the info!

[@Dollapfin]

Rodger P who needs hickory when u have black locust? I mean it’s probably got 90% of the hardness and strength of hickory with nearly the same modulus of elasticity I believe and grows like five times as fast. Hungarian varieties can grow like hybrid poplars. Check the wood database.

[@Leyland15554]

England ash is very popular

[@ScrapwoodCity]

That was a cool present, can't wait to watch them in action!

[@dagwood64]

What awesome axes and mauls they make. I am really amazed by their quality. I have around 50 axes, 7 hatchets and 11 mauls. All of my axes I have found or given to me, just one a paid for on a lawn sale for $3 because it looked to be hand made and I have never seen another one like it. I have been making all my handles myself for about 30 years, nothing fancy but they hold up very well. Most of my axe heads and things I find around old abandon houses and farms. I have been collecting them just as a hobby. Thanks for the wonderful video.

[@mukymik6414]

You are going to be very busy trying out that little lot and I wish you luck getting past Mrs W with the wedge to put on display.

[@wranglerstar]

+MukyMik busted! mrsw :)

[@highonimmi]

+Wranglerstar bwahhahh...when will they ever learn?

[@connorsund]

what happened to mrsw

[@2agbh72]

I want that wedge

[@mr.delacruz559]

got my Prandi in and it's grain orientation is perfect and it came hair shaving sharp. thank you Wranglestar for introducing me to Prandi!I've ordered two more axes and it's all thanks to you!God bless!!

[@aleveraj]

Hey Cody, long time no contributions from my side, so here's one, in case you're thinking on exporting your planned signature axes: Varnish on the handles?? Many many countries, including USA and Canada, are quite strict in terms of the import of untreated wood. Applying just oil, does not guarantee that the wood will not carry some kind of tree disease or pest, so exports manufacturers choose to apply varnish, as a way of simplifying their customs processes. In my country, Chile, many of these products come with no handles at all, for the very same reason! Otherwise they have to apply varnish or be willing to watch their shipments sit in customs quarantine for some extent of time. Best regards to you and your beautiful family, from the other end of America.

[@wranglerstar]

Quite interesting. The hanks for that info.

[@nepabushcraft2817]

+Ale Vera Maybe this is why they come with American Hickory handles. Good points though.

[@random_eskimo_in_the_rockies]

+Ale Vera If you're from "the other end of America" with the way our politics are going, I guess that means you guys got the brain. (I love Chile, had a friend in Osorno.)

[@aleveraj]

+Rodger Pitts Great to hear that!! Osorno is a beautiful area, specially if you like endless forests and pristine lakes!! Lovely people too!!

[@MITradesmen]

Well let's see if the steel is any good

[@tomaslainas695]

+James WB its low carbon steel (0,45%) it has 0.6% of manganese. Prandi has the info on their webpage. the steels stats are not impressive.

[@dutchcourage7312]

+tomas lainas Here in the EU, historically speaking, Itally isn't known for it's quality steel, though it has improved (their cars were known to be rustbuckets, likely to do with the difference in climate from south vs north europe)... but from what i know of steels, the temper in the end is more important when it comes to tool applications.

[@dutchcourage7312]

TheJohn8765 Yeah, that pudding :) , looking forward to seeing the testing ... well Sweden has a high quality local source, not to sure about Italy or where this company gets their iron/steel from ... like I said, it's 'historically known', that for me is like 1960s or so when cars started to become more mainstream. Obviously these things have improved, especially now with global availability of resources ... so we will have to find out I guess, or rather, Cody will and we will learn by ear and eye ;)

[@dutchcourage7312]

Rich206L Yes yes you are entirely right, hence the extensive use of 'historically', and my often explanation that now a days these things are different (and the note on the climatic differences between Italie and Northern Europe). Still though, not every steel is made the same for some reason, though some of it also has got to do (I think) with the heat treat given to a product. But, I have seen a documentary on Japenese sword making, and they select (hand pick) steel they forged from one batch into 3 main categories. Failed junk (discarded), Soft steel (used for the outside), and hard steel (used for the inside). Then they laminate the soft steel around the hard steel during forging creating these super swords. Obviously you have also seen the older tools on this here channel (chisels mostly) that have these darker harder steels used a cutting edges, while the softer steel makes up the rest of the tool... But this has nothing to do with Italie or anything :) just steel in general... so yeah, again, you are absolutely right, and we won't know the quality of these things until they get a proper testing ;)

[@dutchcourage7312]

Rich206L Think he just put up one, I see axes ;) ... and yeah, the swords was more to illustrate the difference in steels, like the chisel there after. Cheers Rich :)

[@notsheeple2019]

With all those samples Mrs W may have to bring food out to the wood pile. You will be testing (playing) with all the new types of axe's. I am interested in the faller's axe and the wide head short axe. Guess a new series or axe test video's are in order.

[@kenbergee]

Thanks for sharing, Wranglerstar. Good luck everybody!

[@HEIGHTMIGHTFLIGHT]

2 Videos the same Day?! Is this already Christmas 2016? Thank you Cody

[@maytech7886]

I know, right?

[@benwinckler131]

+Bauer power yea totaly

[@lucadante3616]

almost christmas 2017 now

[@John330vids]

Cannot wait to see more about these!!! Very much looking forward to a possible collab!

[@firestarya]

Too early for HD, too late for 240p.

[@Easyflux]

lovely design on that wedge and the splitting hammer. definitely my fav

[@pastramichop]

That wedge gave me goosebumps in my gooch

[@carrichard]

Thanks for the unveiling of the Axe Collection. Made and sent from Italy !! Tools of the trade made with care and usability in mind !!

[@hootiebubbabuddhabelly]

I don't think I've ever even touched an axe in my life and I just stumbled on this video after watching some Japanese cats splitting shingles but - I need one. Hell! I need them ALL! They're just gorgeous! Wow! I had no idea there was such an axe...cult, LOL! Wow...fantastic! Thanks for sharing!

[@corydzbinski]

Acquired 25 axes in two weeks after getting the fever.

[@1stcSOLDIER]

Don't be a poser, don't get an axe if you have never seen or touched an axe that's one way how accidents happen.

[@hootiebubbabuddhabelly]

ROFL! So, you're saying I should touch OTHER people's axes...I bet you'd have the exact same hissy fit, ROFL!

[@NZ78503]

We enjoy your channel very much.My wife enjoys Mrs Ws input and I enjoy the tool reviews and outdoor pursuits.Keep up the good work.Kind wishes from New Zealand.

[@mogbaba]

So many great axes deserve: That you put the name of producer in the title. "The Ultimate Axe Video Haul: ???

[@kyle_noseworthy]

Phenomenal!!! I like the non-american style of hatchet. I love that that cutting edge opens up real wide! Elegant!

[@Thefreshp]

Whoa, beautiful. Those Italians are masters. Hopefully they sort you out on the benefits of metric.

[@carl-ok9gn]

Americans are masters too.

[@thispersonsdad7247]

grr ummmpee there are a few

[@1stcSOLDIER]

Metric and imperial systems shouldn't be a problem to convert. For your purposes 2.2 lbs per 1 kg or 2.54 cm per 1 inch.

[@marcharris6015]

That little American style hatchet looks to be my favorite of the bunch. They all look great. Thanks for sharing Cody!

[@suffolkshepherd]

There is almost 5k thumbs up on this one, so for 5K thumbs up we want to see the wedge video first.

[@dottiehildebrand3123]

Can't wait to see you use these axes. God Bless you and your family. ♥️🇺🇸💕

[@Screamingtut]

I guess the 1000 on the head was the weight, 2.2# or 1000 grams or 1 kg

[@MotoGPKain]

+Kristyanna Virgona Yup it was

[@highonimmi]

+Kristyanna Virgona circle gets a square!

[@deltavee2]

+Kristyanna Virgona What I figured instantly too. Canada - metric.

[@thispersonsdad7247]

A kilo seems real light for an axe head

[@four4bman979]

The main reason varnish is on wooden handles is to keep it from drying out so the handle head won't slide out of axe head. Great channel. Unless you are felling trees, I would go for one of the splitting axe and one of the hatchets for kindling and such.

[@TheUofAfan]

Your gonna have some tough hands once you try all these bad boys. Man what a gift! I smell a subscriber giveaway?

[@1stcSOLDIER]

You say your diaper needs a changing?

[@2222Incomplet]

I have been using a twisted wedge (1st unwrapping) just like the one in your box. 1st time I used it, got two more!! Although, not really needed, hardly ever gets stuck. I love them. I don't remember the maker, but not from Italy.

[@acsolutionsllc8453]

[@TacticalFleshlight]

+Wranglerstar $50USD

[@TacticalFleshlight]

+TheeIndubitably $80 Canadian right?

[@j.verheulst268]

Proof of the puding is in the eating: - How easy are they to put an edge on? - What's the quality of the steel/how long do they keep their edge? - How sticky or none-sticky are they when using them? - Do the heads come loose during prolonged and heavy duty use or are they superbly fitted? - How do those beautifully detailed handles work/feel during use? - How does the weight/balance perform (exhaustion wise) during prolonged use? - Etc., etc.? Some ideas?: If I were Prandy, I would sell them with a special Wranglerstar sanding kit including linseed oil plus instruction booklet on how to sand and repetedly oil those varnished handles. And a small botle of Wranglerstar Balistol, a Wranglerstar logo'd cloth and Wranglerstar logo'd tin can to store it in. So they can Balistol treat their axe heads after every use. Also let them explain in their booklet why they pre-sale varnish their handles so that even axe novices understand and appreciate that. It's that extra service and love for their product that would distinguish them even more from the other brands. I think people would love it to cherrish their favorite tools in such a way.

[@michaelrhodes7154]

Cody theses are IDENTICAL to the German OCHSENKOPF "ox head" including that big maul. They all look like a knock off? And the Swedish style ones too. Not to say they are good but you can already get any one of these identical axes almost anywhere. I think they just get Ochsenkpoh the make these for them just like Stihl. I believe you could do something way more original and stick with and American maker.

[@michaelrhodes7154]

www.ochsenkopf.com/en/products/index.html

[@michaelrhodes7154]

Can they confirm to you where the heads are being sourced. To me the handles look the same as well. Also most of the ox heads that I see now are terrible grain orientation. I think they just sent you the good ones.

[@michaelrhodes7154]

www.helkonorthamerica.com/store/c2/Traditional_.html. They also look exactly like these. Look at the one with wedge splitting axe.

[@michaelrhodes7154]

+Wranglerstar

[@wranglerstar]

+Michael Rhodes will look at

[@ianmartin7283]

That last ax you unboxed is available at any hardware store. The design is fantastic and splits wood extremely well. It turns a 5-6lb ax into the equivalent of an 8lb maul

[@goompapa]

Can you plug your axe into an amp? :)

[@ebrown198610]

\m/

[@jameskbattlesr.9761]

thanks for showing the many axes out there, I have use the spitting wedge maul many times and have grown to grab that one first when i have a pile of oak to render. Keep up the sharing of ideas and new products.

[@jamestrotman3238]

how did i get here? this is what happens when you get bored on KZbin, looks like this time i ended up in the axe department, still enjoyed the video though xD

[@DarylDennis]

Just gotta say, thank you so much for all you do. Keep up the awesome work with the videos. These axe and maul videos just keep getting better and better.

[@RichAllfieldnohit]

Oh sweet Jesus, I'll bet they're expensive.

[@kurtmartin2580]

I have a little tip for you,I welded a piece of angle iron to the bottom of my axe head to protect the handle.I also but a piece of peel and stick rubber behind the angle iron.Work's amazing my handle doesn't have a mark on it.Cuase you and I both know that sometimes we don't hit the sweat spot lol.My brother just used a peice of rebar work's almost as good,but mine will actually still cut on the angle iron.Not sure why but I love to cut wood.We have a 40 acre bush.I got enough wood for a life time.Cheer's

[@mfk12340]

Sorry for my ignorance. But what is grain orientation?

[@twelty22]

It's how the grain of the wood is aligned to the head of the axe. You want the grain to run parallel to the striking or cutting edge of a tool. The grain can be seen at the bottom of a handle.

[@darrellwilliams1581]

the grain orientation is the direction of the wood grain. It tends to be different depending on the tool. With axes good grain orientation would be in line with the blade not horizontal.

[@Valk69]

+mfk12340 Its which way the grain of the wood is heading looking at the butt of the axe. Think about a big block of wood you were gonna cut a handle out of. Depending on which was you lay the wood down to cut the profile you could either make it as stiff and strong as possible or as springy and weak as you would want. Looking at the butt of the tool, with the blade facing up, you want the grain running up and down. Not left to right. Hope that helps.

[@mfk12340]

axtra92 Yeah that would be of great help.

[@Valk69]

All three posted at the same time. Thought that would go without saying. No good deed go unpunished...

[@Kropikovo]

Oh man, i cannot wait for a video where you try them all out. Especially that unusual splitting head! Very curious about that. And the splitting wedge? That one has to be put to work, only to prove if elegant design can also be practical. I'm soooo clicking the thumbs up on this one

[@heathcoat67]

WOW those are some great looking axes.....Thank you for that unboxing, it will be a pleasure to see how they perform. have a great evening ......

[@johnr.timmers2297]

I am yet to find a youtube channel with the same calm energy as yours. I love it

[@TheSchribbi]

Today i got my smal hatchet from Prandi. I have to say, totally love ist. But mine wasn't shipped in the wax paper. Handle is not covert in varnish. Worth the price! Thanks for introducing me, and the other viewers, to Prandi.

[@rossclay3317]

What a wonderful box of goodies! Wow! A field day to try and use each one! Congratulations! Keep us informed how all this goes! Whoo Hoo!~ This little video was just perfect with my coffee! Thanks again!

[@jurgenritzhaupt5562]

I remember, 30 - 40 years back that when you bought a new axe or hammer with a wooden handle, you were encouraged to sand the varnish off. The reason given was to cut down on blisters. I didn't know until today why companies varnished their handles. I wouldn't buy a dirty axe myself unless it was a beautiful 2nd hand air loom that you can see someone loved and took care of all their life. You never know, maybe several generations took care of this great find.

[@manchagojohnsonmanchago6367]

yeah it keeps it clean and also it protects the wood from water damage, stains ect.. you can order oild handles from most of these european makers.. same with machetes.. martindale can provided unvarnished handles on request

[@JH_1095]

Very pretty!! Cant wait for the videos of you using them.

[@DerekKingMusic]

I purchased both a German axe and the German bearded splitting maul. Used on a many oak trees and I won’t use anything else. I have beat the snot out of both of them and they are worth every penny. A must purchase. Great job by Prandi

[@Saw_Squatch]

I've got a really nice 26" 3lb head prandi that was purchased for me by my work and it's wonderful for pounding wedges and after re profiling it on the Tormek it's a decent limbing axe too

[@ShawnWideman64]

I love that same axe you picked out, about 19-23 ". Beauty. Thanks a bunch.

[@elrickinslayer5821]

Grand unboxing, your excitement is palpable. Love that small, wide blade hatchet and the utility model. At the moment I use a hand forged Mora axe from Sweden. Definitely going to check out Prandi. Thanks,man.

[@BrendanHollingsworth]

dang!! i would probably buy the one utility one that you like!

[@rbjerlauer742]

when I think "Wranglerstar" I think axe man. you do a lot of really great videos and i've watched many, but i must say when i have a question about an axe you r my go to guy. u not only unboxed a box of axes but you gave a lot of good info. on axes, what to look for in one, grain direction, handle length, weight, etc. I know nothing about axes, would love to know more, it seems like one of those things you have to have a feel for, like art, music. some can do it, but only a few are gifted. you r gifted. tools and carpentry have been a love of mine for many years, axes have really never been a fascination, but i am acquiring a yen to learn more about them. you give details that you don't find everywhere. i really love your axe videos. REALLY GREAT VIDEO

[@fast_n_fowledlife8603]

What a great box of goodies!!! Will be waiting to hear the results...looking forward to reviews! Love the videos!!! Have learned valuable tips n tricks from you...Thank You

[@ShawnWideman64]

Hi Cody, we definitely share a love of good craftsmanship. I am with you on the varnish...sand it off. I would be really interested in a Wranglerstar Branded Axe. I am yet to own a good axe, and I have been holding off buying one due to the high cost of the Gransfors and Wetterlings, but I really am going to need a quality axe in the next 6 months. Thanks so much for your awesome videos.

[@mr.delacruz559]

just ordered my Prandi 14" German style hatchet. can't wait. thanks for this video and I really hope you make an axe with this company!Take care and God bless!!!

[@terpdawg]

Thank you Wranglerstar I will never look at a axe the same. just learned so much about how to select a axe from you

[@hondacamoutdoors7104]

My fav would be the classic fallen, what a beautiful array of art. Good luck Mona!

[@BAMAJiPS]

That WEDGE!!!! Trick Flow used to make some phenomenal heads for the ford 5.0 Windsor EFI called "Twisted Wedge" heads... The name kind of evokes that w the wedge. A twisted amazing chunk of metal that serves a purpose and performs, yet also looks SO GOOD just sitting there on display!

[@TrunkyDunks]

Wait wait wait...a Wranglerstar official ax? Where do I sign?! I see all these comments about how much is affordable? I could justify spending $100ish on an ax of YOUR standards, YOUR design, with YOUR mark, being approved by YOU personally. I'm sure that it would be worth more than that , but knowing how expensive some "bushcraft" style axes are now, the $50 notion is just not realistic for a quality production. (Not that I wouldn't love it at $50) I can't wait to see where it goes from here. Great unboxing video.

[@sarge27271]

Beautiful axes. I am anxious to see the last splitting one you pulled out in action. My uncle had one that integrated two "swivelling ramps" that pushed the log apart as it wedged itself. Never seen that since...Well, have fun!Cheers

[@matthewchastain136]

I love that wider bladed lighter hatchet. The shorter all purpose one you liked is awesome too. Will be interesting to hear the price points and practical testing results.

[@kevinfraser5179]

They look beautiful. I look forward to seeing how they perform.

[@ecleveland1]

You hit the axe Jackpot! This company really wanted you to review their axe line not just a couple of patterns. I hope the steel is good, if so Prandi made a great introduction to the Wranglerstar subscribers.

[@jasonmcnally8390]

I love that fanned out hatchet, as well as the short felling axe. Would love to see a video testing the effectiveness of the splitters!

[@joycejudd5109]

oh wow....Christmas for you all over!!! What a treat! I personally LOVE the hanging leather thong on each one, and what a beautiful display they will make hanging on the wall....even in that new area you did in the house! Personally, I would love the 2 littlest ones... and the smallest one looks as though you could make feather sticks with it if the edge is sharpened correctly. So happy for you...and hope you are able to put your name on them too. Thank you for sharing with us!

[@alanj7306]

My favorite would be to get that entire box in the mail. I have an Italian sofa and it’s amazing. Not just because I’m half Italian lol. They make some great and quality stuff. Definitely worth the extra money for it. My friend, you’re a lucky man to receive all of that.

[@thedyslexicorangutan8049]

For the pride of America, you should definitely get into axe manufacturing. Make your own company for high quality full function axes.

[@LumnahAcres]

those are seem nice. congrats on possible having your own axe series. that is a huge accomplishment. can't wait to order one

[@ajtaylor560]

I can see a trip to Italy for you and Mrs Wranglerstar. Looking forward to seeing ' in use' reviews

[@chrisgrewell6492]

We would like to see an updated video of you splitting with some of these. Any updates on them?

[@irlrsk8]

the last small hatchet and the pack axe you like is a Hudson Bay Style axe head. I have a couple different Norland axe & hatchet with the same design. Their founder went over to Sweden to understand the making of them. They were more prominent on the East Coast. So many of us on the West Coast were not as familiar with them. I was lucky since a couple friends informed me on them.

[@wardmillard8754]

Beautiful craftsmanship,the Italians definitly have style!

[@Targetfocus]

What is important about the grain orientation? Why do you not like the varnish? I like both of the splitting mauls and the wedge. I am not sure about which axe I like best.

[@lifetimesofjcm8582]

Mr. Wranglerstar, please do a comprehensive video on the felling, and medium 'forest' and small hatchets please. i'm shopping for those right now and i would love to see more in depth videos of them, and if they pass your ok, please make them available as soon as possible!

[@YaxisX]

I have been watching WranglerStar for a couple of years, but this is a video that never showed up in my feed. I am glad that I found it. I would have purchased the Prandi axes and hatchets to try them but I had never heard of them before and I am on a bit of a budget. I did buy a Husqvarna Hatchet with the head forged by Gransfors Bruk, and I like it, but I would not hesitate to try any Prandi for my next purchase.

[@timhurst7275]

Can't wait for some test results. A quick look on their site has this to say about the German hatchet HARDENED HATCHET WITH WOODEN HANDLE Material: HEAD: Carbon steel C40-C45; HANDLE: painted ash I like the German hatchet, but I have to agree with Cody the one he wants to put the boiled oil on the handle seems to be the best compromise on size for use and carry. Please don't keep us in suspense!

[@figtreeprophecy]

the big boy is my mind the best splitter in the bunch, if the wood selected is large rounds like the the fir you did the test on. more weight and good geometry gives it the edge. The trade off, as you aptly defined, is it takes more energy to put the process in motion. I have a good cache of axes to suit my needs, but the one missing from the tool shed is a proper splitting maul. I'm considering the Gransfors and I'm sure it will perform like a champ, but the big daddy " Bruticus " as you call her, has piqued my interest! Love the smell of fresh cut wood in the morning! Thx for sharing :)

[@davidlloydmiller]

incredible. I stopped what I was doing and gave this my undivided attention. You have received a remarkable gift box.

[@larryrobertson3310]

rarely get excited watching someone open a box !!! you lucky dog !! you are Blessed

[@olswole5057]

The splitting axe with the unique head is very interesting, but that wedge is truly the coolest thing I've seen. It's just awesome. Love to here about the grade of steele they are made of. Wow, what a great box of goodies

[@guns4funcajanajustin]

Great looking axe's and hatchet there! Very nice work!

[@vitolongo4511]

the dynamics of the Prandi axe is what has to be experienced. The lines of the Prandi has everything to do with movement. There's a subtle "squinch" in the inflection of the curve of their splitters that pops the wood apart. I have their spitter and a felling axe.

[@MrDynamitd]

WOW , I will take one of each and double the order on the multi -purpose axe. Great looking tools , love the look of the slight curve in the handle and the heat treated look of the head with the polished cutting area.Had to watch this twice in a row and now I will be disappointed as I would like to see at least one video like this per week !!!!!!. Looking forward to the testing phase, Thanks and keep em coming.

[@baddesigner]

they look amazing and it says a lot that each one got you excited and received a lot of praise. they look beautiful but my only gripe (coming purely from watching a video on youtube) is that they could design that 'Original U.S.A Hickory' detail to be a lot nicer. to me that's the only detail that doesn't appear as considered and thoughtful as the rest of the axe. anyway, great job and i hope they test well.

[@Anderon1210]

I found an old Ochsenkopf axehead in not so great shape. I removed all the rust and so on and now its all shiny. I oiled it and seated a modified gransfors brucks hickory handle on it. I would've made a Handle myself but my god, hickory is hard to get here in Germany... And i made a leather sheath for it. I did cut down one tree with it but now it hangs on my Wall waiting to get used one day.

[@gvc56100]

Between the handles and fit and finish of the axe heads ,they are truly a work of art that you'll have fun using,,,totally jealous! Guy

[@relyk90]

I would love to see a wranglerstar edition of any of these axes! Definatly will buy one

Nice. I have to say that my Fiskers has gone threw around 80 cords and is still going strong. I use it as a cheap axe and had it at the church BBQ last night and it sure quarters up the wood better and with more ease than my expensive ones. I'm still looking for something better. Gransfors Burks isn't even as handy. It's light weight and splits as good as heavier ones. But I keep buying axes trying to find a better one.

at 10:18, my still axe head is exactly the same, has the '1000' embossed into it at exact same location...hmm

Wow, what a beautiful set of cutting tools. Will be interested in knowing what you think about them once you've had a chance to use them.

If you're going to have a line of axes, would you consider adding a broadaxe?

good start. At first glance, I prefer the sheath with the strap. The snaps break, pull through, rust.....the strap...if it ever wears out, it is easier to replace....the snap, not so much. I did not see the wedge they sent, on their web site. Look nice out of the box....like to see how they perform, stand up to heavy use and, re-sharpen. And yes, price. Does not look at present that they have a supplier in the US.
