I miss being in a workshop. His natural enthusiasm for pretty much every form of forging/metalworking is pretty infectious. Decent guy and a great channel.

Interesting vid. I love this guy’s channel.

PM sent regarding no.27, cheers.

This seems like a good place to ask the question; if I did want a really high quality, traditional English hatchet/axe, which brands or names should I be looking at?

Cheers, I have a Farmer in Alox. Interesting that it’s the same width as the others.

I didn’t know you could buy individual parts from Victorinox. I’d happily build my own. I’ll have a look, cheers.

I’ve never used Pinterest. Can you buy stuff on it?

I’ve been on the lookout for one of Rob’s Mk.1s or Bushtools in 3v or Magnacut for ages. He’s not keen on using CPM steels again. This bushtool’s lovely, best of luck with the sale.

I like the shape/style of these two as well.
