I Forged a Custom Axe for
In this video I am going to show you how I forged a quite unique hewing axe/adze for Erik Grankvist. I also had the pleasure to go and visit him at his cabin where he tried the tool out.
Hope you enjoy the video :)

What a privilege to be able to watch a master craftsman creating a specialist tool...thank you Nils and Erik👌🏻
Such a cool projekt Nils 😍 thank you for sharing!
That turned out beautiful - it takes amazing skills to build something like that and have it turn out that well. Great job!

Thank you!
Been watching Erik’s channel for a while now and just subscribed to yours. As an older timber framer I want to thank you guys for keeping the skills alive and well. I have a few axes from Gransfor Buk that I’ve had mixed results with but the ones you’re turning out look great!
I still say that has always been my favorite type of axe. The adze has always fascinated me. Great job
Absolutely beautifully done, Nils!
An amazing adze. The final scene where two superb craftsmen enjoy a few moments together as a reward was a fitting final moment. I have been watching Erik’s work from the start. Well done both of you.🏆👍 Watching from Australia.😁
A perfectly designed & built tool! Thanks, BOTH GUYS, for bringing us along!
Awesome job. This turned out very unique and very cool design. I really like it. Can't wait to see more videos soon. Hopefully he will get great use out of it for many years to come my friend. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Forge On. Fab On. Weld On. Keep forge lit. Keep Making. God bless.
Beautiful work, I love these traditional woodworking tools.
lovely lines and glad you got to see it used!
Well made and very functional, great video. You’re a good axe maker 👍. Regards from Down Under.
Beautiful work right there
I really enjoy that you choose to make woodworking axes because they are all unique and have a specialized purpose compared to felling axes. Also when you upset the metal does it cry lol.

There's an old blacksmithing joke I heard once which I would now like to retell. "Why is it called upsetting?" "Because it is."

Fantastic job. 👍👍

I was skeptical but man it seems to cut nice, your friend does beautiful work as do you!
Восхитительное качество ковки - постобработка почти не требуется.
I wanna call this a hammerhead shark adze. Naming a tool after an animal that is named after another tool is peak etymology.
Fin tjäckelyxa!
You already have a collection of every kind of axes
Thunder bear would be proud of this one. I think it should be named hammerhead shark.

Nice adze. You might consider shortening the handle so you can straddle the log and swing between your legs. I find this to be a much more comfortable and efficient angle at which to use an adze for this purpose.
I have to admit that I don't know you and that I saw the first video when you were at Torbjörn Åhman's. This is my second video and I have been following Erik for several years. He is certainly excited about this wonderful tool. It's a beautiful job. Looks like I'm going to start following a new blacksmith haha! 😉🤘🏻👍🏻

Nice one mate!! Looks the goods! Anytime you feel like coming "down under" we'll chuck a few extra snags on the barby, maybe even a shrimp or two!! Of course a few tinnies on ice won't go astray.... an yarn away the evening! Just one question mate, how do your addze perform on eucalyptus wood?? Got a bit of spotty gum I need to whittle down a bit for a keel of a boat.... cheers, from the land down under..... (If you're upside down)😂
Den ursprungliga adze visade sig! 👍 På ryska kommer det att låta-teslo.
That is a very imprecise tool, but fun looking.
I recently saw your collaboration with Torbjörn and now here's a video on a tool you made for Erik. I have been following both for a while. Might as well follow your channel :)

This is awesome. Best of both worlds between the adze motion and the flat results on the axe. Is there any historical reference to this specific style tool?
Как круто. Я обожаю твои видео. Жаль редко выходят. Спасибо

Wow vilket flow och ännu en grymt bra film.

Hola!
What steel are you using?
Nice to see you turn your hand to something different! Question though, keeping your drift inside the heated axe for so long, does it not start to soften the drift?
Жыл бұрын
Depends what steel you are using for the drift. My drifts are generally made out of 4340, i have use it under the power hammer for months and have uet to see it deform
Hello! That turned out amazing! I have a question tho, not related to the axe… what is that white thing you put on top of the sausage? :)

Are you putting coal in the eye in the very first clip of working the metal? You mentioned in your other video that it helps keep the drift stuck, right? I've never tried it.

Это всё можно и обычным топором срубить. Стоило ли тесло ковать?
Hi Eric! My 5-year-old wants to know what you put on your hotdogs at the end of the video. What is the white stuff?
Isn’t that an adz?

That tool is not an axe. That is an adze. The blade can come in different shapes and lengths for each purpose. For instance, a shipwright's adze has a long curved blade.

rhar's an adze, not an axe. Great video though.
Every axe needs a name and this one should be "shin splitter". Be careful using this one!
