Thank you John!

Nice to see this tool being created and it was an honor to test this carving axe. I axed out a few spoon blanks and quite liked how it performed in stock removal as well as the finer to the design line cuts and slices. Just two days ago I sent it on to the next carver/tester ... Odyssey is well named.

What a pro you have become, Nisse! Remarcabel broad and deep knowledge you are showing about axes. Inspiring and impressive. Your process seams effective and accurate. Wich you and yours all the best! Andreas

Beautiful! I hope I get to see it along it's journey!

Very cool work and awesome video!

Damn your an incredible axe maker, and a true inspiration to me. How clean and exact your forging work straight off the anvil is amazing.

Wonderful and informative video... Thanks for sharing.... Keep up the great work....

Very nice carving axe, love your videos, they are well produced and very informative. That big belt grinder you’re using looks like a useful addition to the workshop, would like to have one myself. Regards from Down Under.

Could you please make a video how to making painting of head of ax, that color so coll

I love watching blacksmithing videos. The only knives I've ever made were from stock removal and just as a hobby. But I had a question I always wondered about blacksmithing. Does the steel on your blacksmithing tools lose its hardness over time since it's so often touching red hot steel? Always wondered about that.

I use steel that has some air hardening capabillities. Sure I have to dress them some times but thats rare. So the right steel for the job helps alot

Love your videos! You are very talented and Im very grateful for your black linseed oil tip! Would you ever consider making a Pulaski head if you had the time and inclination? From Sussex, New Brunswick, Canada. Keep up the great work!

great vid Nils always happy to see something from you. 6:57 what are you using here to treat the scale?

Жыл бұрын

Oh its my recipe for dark linseed oil. its basically raw linseed oil mixed with iron oxide pigment.

5:35 I thought a good Viking like you would be using a small 2 handle draw knife instead of that potato peeler. :) This would be a fun axe to carve out some small totem poles with. The heavy butt on the handle is really nice as a hold and a bit of a counterweight.

Love the shape of these axes, and your take on the carved handle was the mutts nuts! How was the ash as a handle, I have a fair bit of ash so was thinking of trying it out! TFS, GB :)

Hi quick question what is that powder you use when punching the eye and why do you do it

Жыл бұрын

Its charcoal powder. Its acts like a lube so that the punch dont get stuck

what do you use to make your drifts? I'm interested in making a war hammer and an axe, but don't have any drifts...

Жыл бұрын

I personally love 4340 for making drifts. I like it way more than h13

Классный топор для домашних работ😊 ,я из россии!

Did you make the drifts and all the hammers you use? Just curious. In most blacksmith/bladesmith videos, the drifts just magically appear. I am wondering what material they are made of.

Жыл бұрын

Yes I made them my self. I make a few drifts every year as they get worn out. I make them from 4340 steel. i have a video where I make one.
