Brute Forge Bushmate Racing Axe Chopping

[@cosmicbilly]

Idk why chopping wood is so fun to watch!
I hurt my back and shoulder so i haven't been able to swing my axes and do my chopping chores.
But thankfully Ben and others make content like this so i can live vicariously through them😅😅

Looking nice! Brute forge axes have been in my wishlist for a while, probably buying the "Aizkora" basque design in the future👍🏻

[@mytimbersportsjourney]

Brute forge makes a nice axe

[@jimmylarge1148]

That’s how it looks when I’m chopping wood too. 😂😂😂

[@MattKeevil]

That looks like an awesome axe!

[@johngibbons6155]

That was pure and simple awesome. Love it.

[@brettbrown9814]

Well that was amazing! Hope you don't put that one to work destroying houses. Nice shirt on the drying rack as well.

Nice axe. I would be afraid to try this. I would probably split my foot.

[@the_sharp_carpenter]

Love it, thats an axe I've wanted to try out since he was designing it, looks like it handles well

[@benscottwoodchopper]

Yeah really liking it, got another brute forge too to hang

[@michaelg.7311]

I think the competition ax from Ochsenkopf is very well suited to spruce wood.

[@benscottwoodchopper]

Its an australian made brute forge head on an ochsenkopf handle

[@ItalskeSekery]

Really powerful axe!

[@tigweldNY]

I totally understand how deliberate and accurate all of your movements are, and how aware of the danger you are, but that is a little stressful to watch, not going to lie, lol.

[@tigweldNY]

with or without chain mail

[@benscottwoodchopper]

Springboard is the stressful one lol 😂

[@kurts64]

Awesome👌

[@Ve-suvius]

Yeah buddyyy !

[@skaagkaal2613]

Very nice.

[@indy_red5125]

Hi Ben, what are your thoughts on the Fiskars x27 splitting axe, it will just be for the bits my wood splitter cannot handle

[@benscottwoodchopper]

Its a fine tool. Used one before it works well enough

[@glenurquhart2300]

Nice chopping Ben !
What are the particulars of that axe ?
That looks like a young spruce log, but looks like it had a knot or 3 in the pith.
Is that axe made to handle that ?
I mean, is it a work axe or a race axe ?

[@benscottwoodchopper]

Its a raceing axe but ive ground it to 16° so a little tougher than for poplar. 2.3kg head with a narrower bit 6 1/2"

[@glenurquhart2300]

I got a better view of the axe this time.
Nice looking axe !
Puts me in mind of a modernized Keech Timberman .

[@benscottwoodchopper]

Yeah pretty much a keech timberman but better quality

[@JimGGC]

Fak that’s sharp!

[@daweed4255]

My Spaltfix can do the same!!1

[@milanantonic78]

What is wrong with this felling: hard tree, bad axe, or axeman?

[@benscottwoodchopper]

good axe but needs the bevel thinned out. looks like birch to me so should be cutting a lot nicer
