Sharpening a broad axe.

The Axe Grinder:

 

So, the gent on the bike pedals, which turns the windmill o' guitars round, which hit the guitar pick positioned in front, which results in: music!

A double-axe, made of bronze, likely for ritual used. From the 15th century BC.

I am going to blog about the chopping today. But that is me swinging the axe!

www.axecess.com/ l Drawn by the scent of the AXE range of deodorants, angels fall down to earth in pursuit of fulfilling their mortal desires. A heavenly scent of earthly pleasure lures women from all over the world, even those from an ethereal realm. Listen up, guys – use your AXE body spray with caution! Irresistible and appealing, the AXE effect is responsible for turning innocent angels into bold vixens.

Anyone know the brand of this axe

Here's a rather nice axe that I found recently. The head was not fitted to a shaft and despite some rust and a small dent at the low end of the edge, I think it might not even have been used.

 

I've made a shaft of a piece of straight grained birch from my firewood pile, and although the handle needs some slight modification and a more aggressive curve around the grip area near the knob, it works rather well with this head.

 

The axe itself is very nice. The head is forged and provides a distinct ringing sound when struck with something metal. Although it is sharpened on both sides of the head, it works very well for stock preparation and creating rough shapes.

 

The one thing I don't know is the name of the maker of this axe. The ead has a logotype which looks like an animal footprint with seven digits. Although this can occur amongst cats I'm not sure a cat is the inspiration. But if you happen to know whick maker used this logotype, I'd be happy to know it.

 

The opposite side of the head is marked "2 1/2". This could be related to the weight of the head. 2 1/2 lbs is about 2100 grams, and my axe weighs a tad more than 2200 grams including the handle.

 

If the number relates to weight, then I would guess the axe head was made either in the Commonwealth countries or in the United States.

 

The bit is 6 inches wide.

Phew! I've just spent half an hour choppin' logs (big ones) with an axe. For those who are interested, the wood is Eucalyptus, and the trunk girth at its largest was approaching 30" diameter.

Axe throwing was super dope, and it was even better since they let you drink. I don't know why the other people at work didn't want to come, It's not like I've given them any reason (this month) to fear me drunk and with sharp objects.

Engraving of an axe - situated on the underside of the capstone in the Merchants' Table burial chamber in Locmariaquer, France. The chamber dates back to 3900 BC, but this particular stone is even older, dating from c. 4300 BC, recycled from a broken menhir. Below the axe, to the bottom left, only just visible are the hind legs of oxen drawing a plough.

One of the lumberjacks in the Grouse Mountain Lumberjack Show gets ready to fling an axe.

 

The Lumberjack Show takes place once a day at the top of Grouse Mountain, with hundreds of visitors from around the world stopping to watch.

 

Grouse Mountain sits in the North Shore Mountains, which, as their name suggests, sit on the shore north of Vancouver. It is a big tourist attraction, with a cable car carrying passengers to the observatory at 3,700ft.

 

At the summit there are numerous attractions, not the least of which is the view down on the city of Vancouver itself. There is also a pair of Grizzly Bears, lumberjack shows, and numerous other activities.

 

For those more energetic people – I wasn’t among them – you can climb up the Grouse Grind instead of taking the cable car up to the top and time yourself while doing it. People were doing it in little more than half-an-hour while we were there, which was pretty impressive.
