Video Description

In this video I restored a German axe from "Helko Werk". I already restored an axe a year ago and I wasn't going to make another video about restoring another axe but the incredible work of a friend inspired me to create a handle for this axe very, very special. So I started the restoration by disassembling the old handle. after inspecting the ax's head I decided to sandblasting it and electrolysis to remove any traces of rust. Restoration continued by repairing the hammered poll, made a new bevel and after that I applied a layer of bluing solution, for anti rusting. After cold bluing process, I removed from blackening with a steel wool and the head axe was completely restored. The old handle was too damaged to be restored. I took a piece of Black Locust wood and I cutting it until I reached the desired shapes. As I said, I was inspired to make a custom handle and that's only because you voted on YouTube community to make a custom handle. So, I took a piece of Oak wood and I laminated the palm swell. The results of this axe restoration impressed me and I hope you have the same opinion. Let's not talk anymore and let the video amaze you. I hope you like this restoration and if you have questions about part of the restoration process, I am at your disposal with answers to any questions. Cheers and have a nice weekend ! #axe #axerestoration #hatchetrestoration
