The guard thingy seems like with the holes to mount it to the ax and bashing into the log, it'll just fracture eventually from stress.

Yea that swing that broke the log looked too close for comfort on the leg. That’s one reason we invented longer handles for sharp objects around 6,000bc. I feel like the angle of the handle even makes this worse. If the handle was a lot closer to straight but the same design I think I’d feel a lot more comfortable using it though.

Well, no we added longer handles to provide more force in a swing. The longer the handle, the more force you can get for the same energy.

Speaking of axe's, I have recently watched a video on "how to measure a standing tree" and some were saying you could use you your axe handle instead of a yard stick. That I understand, but I'd like to know if the forestry service ever did anything like that and if so what is your take on the process.

A full length hand or especially great axe will kill regardless of amount of armour as you well know. For HEMA you simply can’t safely use war axes, maces, hammer or pole arms with full technique. These things however would be amazing in HEMA. Capable of pushing a shield aside or hooking without serious injury risk to you opponent. You could even do dumb movie stuff with them that would work against an opponent who didn’t have much experience with silly movie form like twin fist axes.

Funny the second you showed it i was thinking dang thats be cool at the fireplace for kindling.

I swear last night I thought of a weapon design that looked exactly like that

I made my wife a Remington/craftsman..lol Its a Remington ram set the kind with orange flared handle grip..sping was sprung..welded the slide/firing chamber.. So no slide an fitted with a carpenter's ax..this makes a realy good an versatile hatchet for cutting kindling an around the camp a good go bag tool as it also has a hammer head an nail pulling notch. Its a pack tool. Never have to worry about replacing the handle. I like this design. Its a kin to a stone hand ax on staroids I love it!

Never seen this... Greetings from good old Germany✌️ 🇩🇪

I love my “Kindling Kraker” invented by a young lady from Australia.

I use wood for heating during the winter and one of those would really come in handy for the in the house axe work.

Might be useful in a survival bag because you wouldn’t have to worry about dulling your knife, but even then it’d probably add more weight than I’d be happy with haha! I love trying to find different uses for very specialized tools

A cool kit item to take in a backpack when camping nonetheless. I like it!

That's a Cutlaxe! The perfect weapon to make pirates shiver their timbers. 😁

Most awesome thing I've seen in years thanks for showing me it and keep videos coming . Looking for one now.

Nice, close battle weapon, in case of a zombie apocalypse! Me like it!

I would love some more tree felling and forest stewardship videos I loved those and haven’t seen you upload them in a while. Thank you keep up the great work.

Beloved, this Austrian ax...

As an Austrian, it is nice to know that there is such a thing as an Austrian hand axe… that is useless unless you have a fireplace! Lmao

Nice one.. especial for some one that dont have ax handeling experiance.. i need one.. 😊

Agreed. Unless it's the apocalypse.

If I can find one to purchase somewhere, I will certainly bring it with me on my next outing to Bogotá.

I would love one! It’ll be my next metal working project!

At first I was impressed at the build of it with the guard, and then I saw the CHOPPING POWER. That’s a good axe 🤩

Millions were only able to count to nein before that guard was invented

Love these pieces! Nothing replaces a classic wood fire by the fireplace for warmth and cooking on a cold wintry night and this piece will definitely help for the too big pieces.

Splitting planks just became a lot safer

This looks like a good learning tool for a smaller child. Already has hand protection in place and no handle means more control.

I have no idea why this was recommended to me and I will have literally zero use for an axe in the next 5-10 years but thanks for the quick, informative and to the point content!

Looks like something good for foraging/hunting

I like it, as specific as it is, I like the idea of having it next to the stove for kindling lol.

We called those an "inside axe", and we used them growing up to chop pieces of wood that we put in the wood stove during the winter.

It is, as you say, another purpose built tool, to make our lives just a little bit easier.

Less leverage on the axe head and brings the swing so much closer to your body, but great for cutting kindling at the indoor fire, I agree.

@RJ-wx3fh

Жыл бұрын

I can see it being maybe useful if you want a tool for young kids or people with less mobility/coordination (elderly or disabled) to split small wood with a reduced risk of smashing their fingers (like kindling). I don't know if I would actually be much easier to use than a small hatchet, maybe with a mallet which would also give something like an extra 6 inches of handle to keep your axe hand clear of the timber.

I wouldn't mind having one of those next to my woodstove. I gotta get a splitting block as well because I keep nicking the hearth with my axe.

I love these shorts formats; pls do a 2A version

The same company that made my eletric tea kettle.

It looks to be extremely useful for exactly what it was made for! Not all tools have massive versatility

Cool as a novelty, but even for splitting kindling I would prefer something like a froe and a wooden mallet

The purpose on the regular axe the the momentum force the you give to cut, in this axe you sent a direct force to axe.

Agreed perfect little ax for kindling but I wonder how it would be for debranching fallen trees, sometimes it's a pain getting a regular ax or sometimes even a hatchet through certain brush to delimb it

Try that with hard maple from the woods of Maine! Ha ha broken axe or broken hand! How many times a year do you have to clean your chimney on the west coast! Here we dont burn soft woods unless theres nothing else to keep us warm!

I have one almost like that... it's a lightweight hatchet where the handle broke 3" from the head. But I don't have a hand guard... bc I'm not a baby

We need to see the whole axe collection

That’s actually pretty neat

It appears those are made by Müller in Austria, not Germany, although the handle is of American hickory. They are designed for indoor hearthside use for making kindling. As one who has lived several years in several places requiring various sorts of fireplaces for heat and/or hot water or cooking, a specialized little hand axe like this would have been most welcome. Apparently they come in three sizes: for men, ladies and youth. The full name of the firm is the rather ponderously teutonic "Himmelberger Zeughammerwerk Leonhard Müller & Söhne GmbH". Search that and you'll easily find their website with a downloadable PDF of their catalog, albeit in German.

Ah, a kindling axe! I agree it doesn't seem that suited for general purpose use but for knocking out kindling when you're usually on your knees and a longer handle starts becoming a hindrance, this seems a very neat design.

me who has never used a tool in my life "damn that dope i need a few of those"

Out here in the Eastern hardwood forests, we use it for everything. We fell, limb, buck, split and make kindling with them. Only girly West Coast “guys” have to use large felling axes, hatchets, mauls and chainsaws.

I’m in the same boat as you, I feel like an axe like that would be perfect for the missus to keep by the wood stove to start a small cooking fire but there’s really no practicality outside of that. Maybe splitting up small pieces of fat lighter but might as well just use a decent knife for that

Huh. This is what Dooku would wield if he were a lumberjack rather than a Sith.

I could see this a weapon in a bloodsports-like movie.

By the tent's wood stove, the BBQ/smoker or fire pit for kindling and smaller, uniform pieces without having a handle in the way is exactly what I need. Arexthey still available?? 😀

“Too specific” I agree, would be nice for certain tasks just ain’t worth it man haha

@wranglerstar Love your videos! what type of ax would you recommend for my first camping ax?

All the polish people I’ve known they all had little hatchets by their wood stoves. They’d always have odd scrap boards left over from carpentry jobs. They’d cut those boards right down to slivers for starting the fire. This axe would sure come in handy for that.

Its been a minute since i've seen this channel and this guy is lookin like a totally different dude.
