Thanks mate. There is something special to look at beams and see the axe marks of men who made the beams 100 years ago. Hopefully one day someone will look at these beams the same way.

Very exciting activity. We also did this with a group of reenactors, but also chipped a log onto boards. Very cool and enjoyable activity. Thanks for the video.

That axe looks more like a bearded battle axe than a hewing axe. But as long as it works, look doesn't matter.

Well it is a bearded hewing axe. It is actually a replica of 14th century axe. These axes were very multi-purpose pieces - could be used for felling trees, hewing, cutting simple joinery etc. Guess fighting was also an option. Hewing axes of 18-19th centuries were more precise in hewing, but were single-purpose tools.

Really nice, what type of wood did you use for the beam and how fast/slow is the medieval axe compared to your other hewing axe?
@JJChWorkshop
2 жыл бұрын
I used spruce (the same wood as in my other hewing video). The medieval axe is way faster, I would say 2-3x times faster than the broad axe. Another benefit is that I don´t have to lift the big logs so high, which is really difficult to do on my own. The donwside is, that the final surface is slightly more uneven and more "unpolished".
