Are Thin Axe Handles for Small Hands? Comparing Gransfors Bruk and Vintage Axe Handles
My dad also broke his fiskars axe. Now it is a bit shortie hatched. l wonder who designed axes to look like this monstrosity? Surely he took inspiration from stone age binding.
The GBSFA is an excellent tool for its purpose, I don’t have any complaints about the quality of the GBSFA 😊
i would always suggest getting a cheaper axe, they are very expensive for what you get and not the best qaulity ive used
Blisters. No matter how many times I split wood with axes or mauls I get freaking blisters almost immediately between thumb and pointer finger. Gloves or no gloves my skin is thin and just blister’s up.then Im out of comission till I heal up. Ive even resorted to taping my hands for more time on the log pjle. I guess its jist an affliction and I cant seem to build callouses.
Hey Ben, would you have some recommendations for light, medium, heavy axes I can use for specifically pollarding, I've been using around 2lb billhooks with long handles over the years but some of my trees have branches that would be better to take off with an axe I think so...

@@benscottwoodchopper Thank you.
You didn’t get the edge of Ochsenkopf into the log for the penetration test. 👎
uhh yeah i absolutely did, check again
@@benscottwoodchopper great review for sure. Pretty hard to beat the steel on the German axe. I have Ochsenkopf and Council. Both great axes but the steel is definitely better on the Ochsenkopf.
Jak się sprawuje Husqvarna ? czy jest dobrą siekierą ?
I think exceptions would be stuff like billhooks where the hook bites in and uses a shearing action, and khukuri where the belly is primarily the contact area if one is accurate. I would take a good billhook or khukuri (and have) over any of those fancy sharpened prybar survival knives, both the times I had to 'survive', once due to flash flooding (had to climb a tree to not get washed off, lost most of my gear) and another time due to horrible fog and rain that sent me miles off course (in the mountains, very little visability coupled with terrible brambles) it was my khukuri in one case and billhook in the other that saw me through. Whilst I like these light axes I feel they're less versatile overall.
Not worried about damaging the axe with something in the bark?
the reason you debark most logs is the bark is potentially full of grit after being dragged out of the forest, loaded, unloaded etc. I felled this tree in my garden and hadn't even rolled it, the chances of any grit were so miniscule especially as this was a decent height up the tree. but yes best practice is to debark before chopping with a racing axe
@@benscottwoodchopper I see. I compete as well, was just worried about the gear 😅
i wish i could do this everyday i enjoy it but where im at i dont know where to do this
Idk what more impressive the chopping or that clamp that thing is impressive
I swear I could feel it in my own hand with that trowel
Thanks Ben! Knowing and practicing proper Axemanship in this day and age is more important than knowing how to run and maintain power saws!
I'm glad I came across this video, Thank You
..I`ve read, when you hit it right, the sharp ones go easy through a steel toe cap...
I'm looking fwd to the Ben Scott Axe book with multi angle diagrams if pos... That popular buchanen smith one is toss
Oftentimes loggers on the West coast (of the US) would put 44" or 40" handles on thier Puget Sound pattern double bits. This axe reminds me of a Puget Sound minus the 2nd bit, very long and narrow.
your technique could do with some work young fella .
your eyes could do with getting looked at old fart, its a 5 year old video ;)
so you were hopeless 5 years ago as well newboy@@benscottwoodchopper
@@nigeljackson1492 weak cope and seethe random dude on the internet, been up on the stage with stihl timbersports and done pretty good ;) feel free to live vicariously through me loser
Nice
I've been watching Ben for years, and it's always surprising how accurate this guy is with this strikes. @08:15 to 8:30ish you can really see how this guy is a gd laser beam. It's crazy
When George did his underhand against you I thought that would have been a do for letting go of the axe?
Just to clarify you actually have to wear chainmail when chopping in the timbersports

THE WORLD NEEDS AXE HANDLES
By a Fiskars block buster. Unreal.
i have a some awesome splittingmauls and axes, just tired of hearing how good arvika splits (it doesnt)
That axe looks at least a pound heavier and being swung twice as hard! But they both are great at what there intended for! Great axes.
swinking both as hard as i can, tuatahi is 2lb heavier at 5.5lb. just showing the difference between racing axe and a 'premium' felling axe.in any case i dont think the gransfors is worth it at all. i have a review and comparison
@@benscottwoodchopper the g.f isn't for the average person I have 3 of them I love them but most people don't understand the difference between a felling axe or splitting or racing axe and swing away at anything.i think it's buy far the best cutting axe I've used and holds an edge forever love the stock handles too.
How's the Tuatahi holding up?
7:14 And the world trembled when King Tuatahi struck timber! 🪓
Now thats a hit to remember 😂.
The Rinaldi axes are liked in South America, trade axes. So they can make a handle in the wild. Not like us! And they will use the head and a knife or machete to make a new one! The small ones are great camp axes. Instead of whacking a expensive knife. Right tool for the job. Even the caveman understood that! That Muller bits deep! Very nice.
Awesome axe! Been after one for a very long time. Lucky man! Looks brand new! I have seen this pattern in Belize. And without the pole. Trade axes!
Very nice English pattern there! Been looking for one that size for a long time now. Great looking axe!
Chainsaw wins every time for felling
no shit lol
They just like playing with knives! I would only baton sticks in a emergency, not great big bloody logs! That is dumb. All steel will break, just when you need it!
Very nice!
I picked one of their hewing axes, and i am well happy with it. I have been looking for one of the universal ones, it would be a great tenoning axe! Their axes a good, they leave the edge for the customer to finish how they want it. Cuts costs down. Just like husqvarna!
I have quite a few axes, some with 35-36” handles. What I have more of is chainsaws. I have used an axe since I was a boy. I take an axe with me when I cut with a chainsaw, usually one of my Boy’s axes - I have several. My favorite cutting axe is my 50 me on a tree cutting job.year old 4# True Temper with a 31” handle. However, I can still cut with one of my longer handled axes if I desire. I don’t worry about hitting the ground. Like my chainsaws - if I dull out an axe or chainsaw I just grab another one. I do not cut with dull chainsaws or axes. This is why I carry four chainsaws and two axes with
In Aus, we are blessed with an abundance of Jarrah wood, I'm thinking Tasmanian pattern Hultafors 2kg, stuff is so hard and tough
Great videos. Is the Husqvarna a "S" splitting or "A" all purpose type?
Next time use the same technique on the long handles and I'm sure you'll cut better.
if you use the same technique the axe ends up in the ground lol.
its pronounced King EE if you can roll them together even better but King Jee is way off
Imma put racing stripes on my axe and sell it as a racing axe on FB marketplace 🤌😂
Nice racing axe
Get your footholds nice and flat and you’ll have better balance, and more power. Hard on a small block anyways, not a lot of real estate to stand on
Hi Ben, I live in UK and need to replace a couple of axe handles for a few vintage axes I got from Ebay. The axes are mainly for splitting wood for firewood and are around 4lb. One plumb and one HB. Could you suggest a few places in UK to buy the handles without breaking the bank? I can thin them and modify a bit to my liking. I've tried ebay and the handles I received are total rubbish! Thanks
i hope they wear steel toe shoes 😮
Tuku Nang ndi kue? Regane piranan?
Can anybidy help me locate a Rinaldi Calabria in 1.3kg in the UK? I can see the axe heads for sale on ebay, but not the larger sizes, and ideally id want to buy it with a handle Any help would be really appreciated
Thanks for sharing
Just been out camping and realized my little Hultafors was simply too inadequate for my needs, Australian Kari and Jarra sucks lol. Then a combo of pine too. Torn between a Muller American Felling or an Adler Rheinland, one of these should have a bit more heft than my current solution, either that or maybe get a Corona hand saw or something, they reviewed well on Project Farm
