- 8 minute compilation of just felling trees and chopping with sharp axes including tuatahi, muller hammerwerk and various old axes such as brades and true temper
A lot of people don't understand what an axe is really capable of because they've used/seen others use axes that are just plain dull. Geometry is also super important when it comes to wood
Love it when an axe is tuned up right
👌that's the good stuff. Especially those Mullers. And that strange Italian slip fit. And the giant Brades. They're all great.
Great video Ben! Lots of beautiful sharp metal in this one. Have a great Christmas and all the best for the New Year.
Thank you mate, I got the Biber Canada, probably the best axe I ever had!! Happy holidays and Merry Christmas full of health for everybody and peace allover the world!!
Bieber Canada? As in Justin Bieber? He markets axes?
Thank you Brother for your time..knowledge and dedication. As a young man I worked with my Father clearing land in North Carolina and Illinois. I'am a stone/brick mason by trade. But I have always loved the felling strategies and tools used. Your channel provides the education and techniques that I never learned...until now!! Your approach and experience is the best I have found...You are at the top of the game.. I can't say enough....Again thank you for the gift...Godspeed to you and your family...Much Respect from St Petersburg Florida...
7:57 that chip said "stay here" to the gopro!
Always a pleasure to see you chopping mate!
I enjoyed that very much! just so satisfying to see you do that Ben. Thanks
My hair doesn't have your flow either! Great stuff, dude.
Hope to see you out there again this year. Need some new footy from the 🐐.
Good stuff Ben!👍👍
Nice work 💪
and
Merry Christmas Ben🎄
Loved the video.
When felling a tree with an axe you can hear the tree crackle, along with its surroundings. Its very important and great for safety, something that is difficult with the sound of a chainsaw.
Enjoyed this man
This is insanely satisfying to watch. I don't even think my table saw is that sharp lol.
Nice footage!
Dammit Man....A 4 pound scalpel!!!...I know there's horsepower and a strategy involved... But those are amazingly sharp.. Much Respect from St Petersburg Florida...
That’s hardcore.
One mistrike .. 😮
Nice!
thats sharp
I seem to have logged onto the Paul Bunyan channel 🤔
Merry Christmas Ben. Hope Santa brings the axe you want......if there's any you haven't tried already lol.
Oh yeah...New Sub here...Again thank you Brother for sharing your knowledge....
This guy bucks.
I'm sure this guy wants a chainsaw for Christmas 🤭
Wtf man
Thats crazy shit right there
Could it be that your just swinging that thing super humanly hard?! 😂😂
You are a machine brother!
There is quite a lot of technique that helps
damn it just melts into the wood
That was satisfying 👌
soft wood init ;)
@@benscottwoodchopper I mean I could ship you some wood with more testicular fortitude, but your Skillz still Gud 😂
Axeman...beautiful chopping Mr. Ben...to answer your question about my axe, sometimes..beautiful video sir...
Are your opinions of the tuatahi camp axe still good?
Is it big difference to chop green or dry hard tree? Best regards from Slovenia
Yes dry wood is where axes are much less efficient
@@benscottwoodchopper I thought that my axe is not good for chop dry hard wood, thanks Ben.
I love a good sharp ax but for what a competition chopping ax used on that larger tree costs you can buy a decent chain saw. I've split my share of fire wood over the last 55 years glad I didn't have to cut it to length with an ax
Yeah i dont think the competition style is good for working anyway. I do compete so i have 6 of them
Little more a v shape and it would of been perfect and that axe though Thor would be proud
hey what brand is your axe
There are lots in this video, need to be more specific
Please review the imacasa 5lb round eye head baryonyx is selling
I dont think it looks that good, I'd just get a council tool 3.5lb instead
Доброго часу. Порадьте сокиру універсальну,щоб можна рубати дерева і колоти дрова?
commentz for da algorithm
Awesome brother 👍. Is that a felling axe or a liming axe? To be honest I don’t know the difference. Is it about length of the handle or weight of a axe head?
There isnt really a hard definitive difference but typically a good limbing axe is very thin and 1kg, felling axes are 1.5kg plus and have wedge geometry
I'm more impressed with your hairdo, anybody can sharpen an axe.
what happened to your reddit?
Deleted it. Every time i post there i get loads of comments from know it alls
@@benscottwoodchopper this is sad...but understandable. Subs become bad when they get too big
@@martinerhard8447 yup cant post a single clip without getting dozens and dozens of comments about how i look or hes going to hit his foot etc. The community and level of discussion there by far is the worst on the internet.
@@benscottwoodchopper yup I have noticed in the bushcraft sub a big drop in quality of posts and comments over the years.
By the way: I got myself a mueller biber and already thinned the handle. I am already quite happy with it but I think one could get even more performance out of the axe.
If you wanted to use it to cut down lots and lots of young birch trees then how would you mod the head? just a Scandi with a microbevel?
@@martinerhard8447 basically yeah file flat then put a secondary/micro with a stone
I bet you that axe is at least $200
Which one? 95% of the axes in this video cost less than 100 unless you mean the really shiny tuatahi which is roughly 500
The first one at the beginning of the video. If that one is less than $100 can you tell me where you got it from and what type of axe it is I would love to have it
@@Mr.Moore23 muller biber axe, £50 in uk.
@@benscottwoodchopper in your opinion do you think that is one of your most buff axe that you have. How mush does it way? What do you look for when buying an axe? The weight, shape, or size?
