    I have a typo in the video didn't catch it :). I put tongue oil, but it's actually Tung oil. Also, I know restoration is something new I'm experimenting with. These can be bought new for cheap, but keep in mind that I find the process satisfying. I make videos for you all so your opinion matters :D. So let me know what you think.

    When you started the video, I thought it was an old axe that was a family heritage because of its style and that you were going to bring out the finish and make a beautiful resharpen and handle. When you started grinding, I tought omg, he is ruining the old piece. But I kept watching and was very doubtful you would make anything unique, but this was only my third video, so I really didn’t know the depth of your talent. Great job!

    It's called a roofing hatchet, the hammerhead was for driving roofing nails, the notch in the blade was for pulling nails, the hatchet part was for splitting wood cedar shingles, and the overall length from hammerhead face to hatchet bland was the offset length to start the next row of shingles. Nice work for your first project, your attention to detail is great.
