- Here is my Bushcraft Axe - The TA Axe is designed and made in England. With a wood handle that has been made from the 100 year old Ash Tree in my woodland. A leather sheath that is from English leather made in Britain's last remaining Oak Bark Tannery that has been around since 1862. So much attention to detail has gone into this axe and I am incredibly proud to be able to now have these available. Thank you for watching.

Wow, they sold out in 3 hours! I’m truly blown away by this. Thank you so much. For those wondering, the next batch will be ready end of January and we are going to try and continue to have a batch of axes towards the end of each month. In order to find out exactly when they will go live on the site, sign up to the newsletter at www.taoutdoors.com/shop/taaxe and as soon as they are back in stock I will send out an email 👍🏻
Yeah, sold out, any idea when the next batch is available?
Could I reserve one in the next batch?
Quick! I need you to grow another 100 year old Ash! I'll start on longevity drugs so I can get the batch of axes. I think my credit card will still be good in 2173.
@@BryceByerleyI doubt he's used all the wood yet.
Well then I need to know if you ship to Sweden or I need to ask help from a friend in the UK?
Hey Mike, very proud to say I now own Axe no. 69, bought it from you in person at the bushcraft festival this weekend, so pleased with it!
What an great vid! I thoroughly enjoyed working with Mike on this incredible axe project. I'm quite overwhelmed by the responses on here, thank you for all the kind comments. For those who missed out on the first batch, don't worry! The Forge is warming up for a second run ...
A job well done
Amazing job and a beautiful and practical axe 👍
The way Joe quickly draws those contour lines on the handle you can tell he's a master craftsman and has made many tools in his time.
My thoughts exactly! I couldn't believe my eyes when he did that! What a boss!
If you watch he never changes his grip on the pencil and uses his fingers as a guide. The outline was already formed by a template so it follows it.
Too kind!
One of your best videos ever.
I’ve watched dozens of hours of axe making, but never seen the details of a tannery. Quite unbelievable to amount of work and time that goes into a simple piece of leather.
Amazing vid. One thing you could add is the importance of straight grain and grain orientation for haft/handle strength. Your ash is incredibly straight and aligned correctly as can be seen at 7:40 so should last for ages (with oiling).. Good workmanship all round, congratulations.
What a great presentation...from beginning to end. The map, the journey past Stonehenge, and of course, the hundred year old stately ash. If I were younger, I would jump on one in a heartbeat. The price is very fair considering the workmanship in every aspect of production. The leather production alone, screams quality, historical significance, and perfection.
My guy, you should be paid to shill this hard. In fact, I already didn't like the presentation, and you have just made it even worse with your fake bullshit. 'The leather production screams quality,' are you a leather worker or a historian, how do you know what perfection is? The logic and reasoning in your comment screams idiocy, and I AM an expert in that.
@@switters8679 I truly believe you are.
@@switters8679 I AM a professional leather worker and that axe sheath looks pretty damn high quality to me.
I dunno what in particular upset you about Mike's presentation but I enjoyed it.
@@switters8679Blimey what a w⚓ u r
@@switters8679Wut, you’re an expert in idiocy?
Congratulations in a beautiful custom hand axe and sheath. A lifetime tool.
My bushcraft hand axe is a COUNCIL TOOL WOODCRAFT model. Made in USA. The poll is hardened to prevent mushrooming.
"Waiting 'axe'-actly this long for the video? Axe-ellent anticipation! My channel's chopping up similar topics - let's 'axe-celerate' our shared love for all things axes!"
No wonder they're in high demand 👌 beautiful work, the effort that goes into them.. including the leather.. it's on my Xmas list gift for my uncle
Having watched the whole process I am amazed at how you've managed to sell then at such a low price. Incredible craftsmanship.
Hi Mike! I'm 12 and we talked a while back. For the holidays I got Dave Canterbury's set of four Bushcraft books. And that got me thinking. Have you thought about writing a Bushcraft book? I think you're one of the best people for that. You are great at explaining things, and you're also good at demonstrating how to do things. Well, please consider this..... You did a great job with the axe! Thanks!😀
What gorgeous craftsmanship and a beautiful story.
Wow, what an awesome video. Its good to see the full journey. I'd be proud to own one.
My Agawa Canyon axe arrived yesterday, and now you have me drooling over another one before I even had a chance to use it. 🤤
Everything about that axe looks outstanding, that guy Joe is a seriously talented craftsman. No surprise they sold out, superb.
Thanks for your kind words :)
Very interesting to see the whole process! Very good craftsmanship! Very nice work from everyone involved in the process!
That looks like some quality, and more importantly, traditional manufacturing, resulting in an exquisite tool that will probably last someone a lifetime. If I didn't have three other axes already, I'd be all over this, but I do, so...
It's a beauty. Looks like it has a substantial head. Too many small axes have heads that are too light. Defeats the purpose of an axe.
I’m glad you’re doing these bud
Congrats!! You deserve this!
Awesome video man! That’s so cool thanks for sharing every step of the process! Really makes me appreciate the craftsmanship and the fact it’s all locally sourced to you.
I honestly got shivers when you showed that great ash tree laying on the forest floor. There's just something about trees that is just so majestic.
A fascinating process showing how to make something properly and what a premium axe,now at the top of my wish list 👍
It's beautiful.
I have the axe that my dad made, it's old and battered but still feels better in my hand than others that I own.
Awesome work lads. 👏
Thank you mate
Thanks for showing us the story of the axe :) sold out man, wow :)
Wow- awesome video and product!! Congrats on this success!
16 mins of ultimate joy. This story was amazing. Thankyou for the video!!
By the time I am able to afford one, I hope one is available! It's a beautiful tool.
Beautiful little hatchet. Great to get it made in England, supporting local craftsmen. Always a good thing!
Super video. Hand crafted tools and artisan makers.
Old world craftsmanship is the best..🙏
Dude... total respect from start to finish, %100 to you and everyone involved, truly mean that.... however...I hate to say it, but it's far from economical for the majority that would rather simply modify their techniques to use what they can afford
Personally, even though being more well off than some, personally, I'd rather run through we'll say 3 "average" axes over 5+ years for still half the price...
Respect the dedication and craft, but sadly in today's age, most average people would agree bc most can't afford it
I hope you continue to do what you enjoy and spread the positive lifestyle that is being lost, but in reality, it's gotta be more commercially viable and accessible to the majority
Man that really puts it into perspective the quality of work that goes into things.
Beautiful work!
Great looking hatchet
Thank you for this video. Looks like a fine product. I will have to keep an eye peeled in January.
A beautiful example of British craftsmanship, lovely Mike.
Making a set of primitive tool axes and hardening them is also very technical and skillful
Great video,, great British skills hopefully we won't lose
AWESOME video, back story and axe! SO very well done! KUDOS! Love the documentary style narration!
Dude, good for you. Looks Fab. Smashing video, very informative. Im not surprised they sold out 🫡
And they're gone! Awesome Vid mate.
Best advert so far
What a dream realized! The planning, the prep work, the execution & now the distribution...all that, so that we too could enjoy a beautiful piece of history (the ash tree) & exceptional craftsmanship the serves small business, men & women. Way to go. Love your channel & so stoked I'll be able to have my very own TA Outdoors axe!
Love your videos, man. happy you could finally get the hatchet made!!!
Beautiful! If I ever have need of a bushcraft axe this is the one I want.
A comment wouldn't be enough to appreciate the movie.
What a great video we have fun watching this❤
Do you make your own knives the craftsmanship that's gone into this is amazing.The old trades need to keep going 👍
Well that worked. I want one now.
great story mike and a fine axe
Came for the smithing, stayed for the section on the Tannery! Super interesting video!!👍
Congrats Mike. That is so much more than an axe. I hope your holidays are joyous and you get to relax with the family.
Good looking axe young man.
Great sentimental tool.
This is one of my favourite bushcraft videos ever! I missed out buying an axe…. :( but I will try again brilliant work.
One of the best videos ever❤
Excelent marketing ...bravo! Also, good product manual made quality.. rade these days. Excelent guys, just proceed like that... Maybe You will not earn much money, but experience is priceless... Regards from Serbia!
want one!!!!! and thank you for using a "local tannery"
Outstanding!!
Beautiful!
Thank you, I enjoy your videos
We need the TA knife! 🙌🏼
Well done! 🎉
Absolutely amazing - So good that people are still doing this kind of thing from the tanning and forging right through to your finished axe... Well done, you deserve to feel very proud.
The axe looks awesome, I would love to see a TA outdoors bushcraft knife coming soon. I have knives but not a quality bushcraft knife.
Gutted I missed out on one, hope you manage to get more.
Congratulations mate
Beautiful, man.
Wow what great detail in this video. And a great axe. Hopefully I will get a chance to purchase one in the future as I acted to late on these
Good looking axe
Outstanding.
Impressive, I love the traditional nature of the production. It gives it soul. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful
Got sucked into that like an episode of How its Made!
Happy Christmas to you and your family look forward to seeing what you n your dad get up to in 2024.
One coming to Spain soon 😎♥️ awesome!
I see no shipping to Europe
We will be doing shipping to mainland Europe next year
🔥🔥🔥Greetings, colleague🤝 It's good to have a tool in the forest. Have you tried bushcraft completely without equipment? I've been doing this hard for 5 years. All year round and at +50⁰C and at -50⁰C. I must say right away - it's much more interesting than with the tool👍👍👍
Congratulations Sir!
Bushcraft tea and medals for your fabulous creation. Very satisfying.
Well done Mike, they really do look great. Nice to see them sold out quickly.
I think i need to contact the leather company to get some leather, they're in the same country as me so i might be able to go there. Half a cow should be enough leather, i just need to make another 10 guitar straps.
Happy whatever festival everyone. 🎉🥳🥂
Well worth a visit if you can. That place is stuck in time. Genuinely feels 150 years old when you walk around it.
That's just what I need.
JUST WOW! I don't think I have ever seen this process! Great! and congratulations!
Fantastic looking camp axe/hatchet! AMAZING price considering the materials and craftsmanship put into these! I'd gladly pay $10k for 12 of them!
That was the best informative video I think I've ever seen for axe forging. And I've seen them all I think. Great hatchet by the way.
Thanks for Sharing
nice made axe
Thankyou for going into detail on this, absolutely brilliant!
Beautiful tool. Congratulations on sticking with the project...
Thank you and the team for my axe 🪓 008 great hand made tool ! Looking forward to putting it to a good use 👍 keep up your great content 👍
What a corker No.8 is! I seem to remember it having some incredible grain patterns on the handle.
Merry Christmas Family 🎅 🥂 🥂!!!🔥
Beautiful ❤
Excellent
Thanks for a different type of video, interesting and inspiring video about craftsmanship.
To be honest I have a few aces and hatchets My better half Will not have more of them in and around the house.
Merry christmas everybody
I would really enjoy one of these axes. 😊
This is more effective at convincing me to buy one than any ad
No words to describe the quality of the axe, the handle and the sheath as well. You, young man can be considered a very model of a craftsman for the actual 'no purpose' generation. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 fro an old man - Brazil 🇧🇷 P.s.: I find interesting the use of a light wood such as ash wood to make axes handles. We do not have ash in our country so we generally use hard and heavy woods for this purpose.
Thank you for your kind words!
The story behind a tool is what makes its beauty.
After watching one of your previous videos I went over to Joe website at Thornwood forge and ordered that hatchet. I can honestly say the workmanship is outstanding. Great communication with Joe himself too. Thank you. Merry Christmas to all
