In this video, I forge and heat-treat an axe. The body of the axe is made from a piece of 1/2"x 2"x 9 mild steel and the cutting edge is made from a 3" section of an old farriers rasp. The rasp is probably simple tool steel such as 1085 or 1090. First, the mild steel body is forged to shape then bent into a U shape to receive the tool steel bit. The "bit" is then forge-welded into place and the final axe shape is achieved with forging and grinding. After heat-treating, the axe is sharpened and mounted to a wooden handle.
