The fact that he can go from cutting wood and being freaking excited and the next moment killing it on the drums is awesome lol

This guys is the optimal Canadian. One of the nicest channels I’ve ever watched.

I was a cabinetmaker for 38 years Buckin. It does my heart good to see you grab that 8 quarter hickory and cut it up......and make a nice axe handle! You are unstoppable my friend!

Just did this for my boys ax. Made it from a tree that was cut on the property and lumber I made from it. Super cool!

How did you mill it

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH BUCKIN' ! You are just totally the coolest dude.

A great video! I can always feel your excitement! Also, another sober drummer!! New to the axe world! Loving it!

Brother that was some of the finest wappin, slappin, and smacking of the skins I have ever seen. I've been watching your videos for sheesh, seems like five years or so and that's the first one I've seen you bust out on the drums! I had no idea you were so talented, props to you my man. I get just as stoked as you do watching these! Going to head outside soon and whip myself up one of your dandy axe handles. Love the videos! You the man!

Buckin I can't wait to see these white oak handles!

thx and welcome ,, soldiers ,, thx for welcoming this person

Was going over to my friends house to make handles, amazing timing

Every time I'm having a bad day I always get on here and watch your video and it always lower my stress to sit down and watch you for hours at a time and just ignore everything around me. So I want to thank you for that.

No matter how many times I watch you make a axe handle it never gets old or boring beautiful work

One day I want to own an axe made by you. I’ve been watching all your videos and love every single one. I recently got into swinging an axe and let me say it feels good. I like your sense of humor and personality. New subscriber here learning a lot!

You know billy, you got a great personality man. I wish i could keep that feeling for more then an hour.

Pure talent, your work is an inspiration! Greetings from Poland!

You are the coolest person on youtube Buckin!! Love your attitude and videos!!

You just carved a perfect teardrop on the top of that beam. That's incredible😮

Wow! guys! what a great Person this Bucking Billy he is special , he take so much of is time to teach the 🌎 worlds, I’m proud to sit down and watch This man after my work every days, ❤️👍😎🌲🌎 thank you 🙏

My Granddaddy and I made handles of all kinds when I was a young fellow. We always made our handles out of young hickory and only the butt cut. My Grandad always said the young butt was tougher and more flexible. We usually got 4 handle pieces out of a tree. We then hand split it to get the grain oriented right. If we had extra handle pieces left over we would sink them in the creek until needed. They would keep a long time in the creek.

Hickory Drums sticks on the menu? lol .........UR GOOD MAN!

That oak tho! i want to get into carpenting and combine it with my blacksmithing! this is amazing!

The 4x3 moment was hilarious! 😅

Everyone's commenting on the wood (which indeed is beautiful) but I really love your drumming, man. Really like your flow. Stay positive my dude, you seem like a good person. Cheers.

Congrats on your find of such good wood.... Like a grown man in the candy store have fun with it be safe and God Bless Ya...

wow , you did an amazing job for just eyeballing ...hats off to that for sure... ..

I see the respirator and safety goggles have made an appearance. I’ve been carving chainsaw bears and eagles lately and a couple days ago I took a cedar chip to the eyeball and it was the worst one yet. I woke up the morning after and couldn’t open my eye, I almost had to make a run to the emergency room. I just ordered a pair of those steel mesh goggles! Before long I’ll be OSHA approved 😁 Handle looks great, Billy. Good to see you’re still lovin’ life brother!

I'm alway amazed by chain saw carvers I run saw everyday an dont know hoe you guys do it even with the right barn n chain what not a guy who lives down the rd a piece does nice work bears an other animal he has one strapped down in the bed of his pick up every time I run into him at gas station or around town I end up staring at that bear saying how the heck do you do that lol keep it up but stay safe you gotta see to be able to carve lol

Thats some beautiful Hickory

White Oak is gorgeous with that tight grain and I love when those medullary rays start showing up. And that smell...Oh man, I love the smell. Furniture, cabinets, boats, flooring, and handles on tools...I've used it everywhere. A chair maker in south eastern US, Brian Boggs uses it a lot and sometimes makes it jet black. He soaks steel wool in vinegar for like a week. When he puts it on the wood and it reacts with the tannins in the white oak and turns black deep into the grain. It's not a stain, it's a chemical reaction. It's one of my favorite woods. Love your enthusiasm! It lifts me up and brightens my day. So thank you for sharing these experiences.

Hey Buckin Billy Ray! I am a new subscriber and I love when you break out for a jam out session on the drums! I love your axe handles too! 😎🤙

Buckin, Buddy, I love you man! Have a great day! I want you to know that we have one of the (maybe the best) best communities here on KZread! And it is because of you! Thank You!

@@BuckinBillyRaySmith I sent you a message on your web site id like to know what's available and a price range. I seriously been putting pocket change and singles away in a jar for it.

I have been just starting to use ironwood, and buckthorn to make handles. Hard as rock with very fine grain.

How can the biggest manliest man I have ever seen seem so welcoming and friendly!

Sooooo cool!! Plan your bandsaw cuts a bit, you might be able to salvage some wedges.

"I'm being a carpenter honey" I pissed myself..😂

Truly a pleasure to watch your excitement. 👌👌👌

Grew up in the US, moved back home to Hungary recently and I now feel so much pain not having relatively cheap hickory. Our forestry sector is a mess here, our "best" wood is Black Locust AKA false acacia, good for furniture and posts but a little hard IMO for tools that get a lot of shock.

Hey Buckin, Nobody moves, nobody gets hurt!. Lol..made me smile.

Another great one, Buckin' 👍

Great vid watching at 7am on a day off, thanks buckin good skills

I have made so many handles but always draw them out first!! Buckin just freehanded it and his experience shines!! Your amazing buckin!! Love the first and last sanding lol!!!

NOW I'm inspired to sharpen my Pizza Cutter! Custom handle coming soon!

Came for the handles, stayed for the solo \m/

Buckin it's such a joy to have seen this channel grow! You are a great role model for the youngins and even myself. Been watching for almost 3 years i think. Time flies.. much love buckin.

Awesome, what a grand job!

What am interesting video thank you from England

I never tire of watching your videos. New or old ones I have always found something new and helpful in them. Not to mention the pure positive vibes I get every time I watch one. Keep em coming Buckin!!!! Greetings from Arkansas. Wooo Pig

You're a breath of fresh air mate, and you live a rich life. Addicted to these videos now, and i hope to spend more time in the woods soon

Hell yeah on the handles too man!!!

This is awesome! I really like seeing the transformation from a board to a handle. Can’t wait to see the wood bullet on a custom handle👍🏻.

another great Buckin video

the grain on those pieces is amazing

Awesome Billy! Thanks!

Thanks, Buckin'! Very timely video as I have been wanting to attempt making a couple handles from some oak I found.

I love the way you use your truck as a work bench!

I’m super happy you uploaded this video!

Looked very therapeutic to do and watch, nice job buckin. Looking forward to seeing the rest of them, much love from the UK❤️🌲👍

That handle was truly deadly. Done by eye and *chefs kiss* perfectly centered.

Beautiful handle!

Dude - you're awesome...love watching you do what you love. While I sit at a desk all day for Job #1, Job #2 is all about working with my hands. Whether in the garage, out at the wood pile, or just amongst nature, Job #2 is definitely where I find my joy. Keep on creating, friend. I'll be here to watch

First time I saw one of your videos. Totally enjoyed it . I have my great grandpas 21/2lb ax head and never made a ax handle. You made me pumped to get to it

I've been watching you for a while now buckin I love your videos my wife loves them and you're a great inspiration to a lot of people especially young people keep doing what you're doing man your Love by many I'm a wood man and I love it too

Those are gonna look pretty darn stylin my friend! Love to all from Northern Alberta!

Buckin those handles are looking awsome great work making them from just a board into beautiful handles

Thats some good looking wood. That’s why the drums stay set up so you can set down and have some fun and move on. Love the drawknife work.

Once you start making your own handles, you never go back. Great video

There's something about putting your hands on whatever you're working with and creating something to be proud of. We tend to pay more attention to the small details.

Those are going to be beauties. Each and every handle will have something a little bit different with your own unique shape and feel. Cant wait to see them finished Buckin.

Great inspiration

You have carpenter in ya man, it just needs teased and caressed just like the board. Blessings buckin and Mrs and kids, everyone

Your a good man bucking....just watched the axe handle of life!!! Your not wrong brother. Much love to you and yours big dog🥰

Truly motivated your the best God Bless

That’s one heck of a sharp handsaw. Nice stock.

Your a talented man buckin. Keep up the good work

Oh oh man I love it! Never had a handle of that profile looks nice though and I would so pay for one of those! Nailed it! Loved it!

Keep up that great work on the axe handles and on ur KZread channel

I would love a hickory axe!

Sweet handle axeion brother. That is some beautiful wood for sure. Love it all. Looking forward to the rest of that tree work video. Love ya man🌲❤🌲👊🪓

I'm getting one of those damn saws! woah...

I've always had problems with the oak cracking on me. I've been happy with hickory. Now that I'll never swing an axe as hard as I did back then, if I can even do it again. Maybe I'd like to handle my camp/forestry axe in oak.

Beautiful wood. It's great to see a real master in action. Hope to have one of your axes one day Buckin. Big love to you and the Buckin army. ✊❤

Great live chat yesterday BBR have a day love from TEXAS

Thats going to look real good done

Hey Buckin’! I’m turning 12 years at the end of the month and I love your new axes.(I would love to get one of your axes for my first axe.) My family and I run a family own a bagged fire wood summer job. I subscribed too!

Your talent Buckin is amazing your not scared to grab it and run with it they will be awesome handles when your done the grain is the very best for handles. Love them your Amazing Buckin

I’m from Wisconsin and hope one day we can build some axes together! You’ve been a huge inspiration and truly love woodworking and building. Happy Spring brother!
