Mister Torbjörn, I watch many independent blacksmiths on youtube, but your videos are by far the best ones I have came across on this site. The amount of patience and detail in your work is astounding, your workshop is really impressive and I love the small, calm and relaxing pauses with natural landscapes you use in your videos. You always make an extra effort and don't use things like saws or sandpapers machines unless it's absolutely necessary, your predilection for manual tasks shows off in the end, you put a lot of soul in your work, you won a loyal fan, greetings from Chile and keep the good work!

i really like the sharpening stone. interesting to see someone use just a good quality rock instead of the synthetic ones.

This is one of THE most fascinating videos that I have ever seen ! You truly are a craftsman.

I love the simplicity and peaceful nature of ur videos. Keep it up Torbjörn🙂👍

Love it, Great job! ! Thanks!

Great work!

Your axe looks amazing. Great craftsmanship. Thank you for sharing.

Absolutely beautiful! Thanks for sharing

I think you nailed this one. I love the unfinished look.

Awesome Job! One day i will build my very own axe too! I learned a lot from this video. Thank you for that

Love your videos, great watching a craftsman plying his skills. Well done.

beautiful work. I loved your process. Thanks for sharing.

Love this! great work :) Simple but traditional design.

stunning sir, I envy your skill

Beautiful work - thanks for posting the video.

Beautiful work and craftsmanship.

You've got some nice videos, watched this one as well as making the drift. Really enjoyed seeing the project as well as your work space, especially your anvil, quite nice. Thank you.

Wonderful piece! Very well done, congratulations. And good video as well.

Can not get enough of your videos I was never interested in Blacksmithing until watching your channel and still yet to try.

Man I love that rough surface look!!!!!!! Great job Sir

Perfection itself... I wish I had one ;-) Handmade tools are tools with spirit. Good luck, greetings from the Czech Republic.

Love watching your videos, Greetings from England. Del.

It gives me a sense of how easy we have it these days to see all the work that went into this one beautiful hatchet. Good work, man! Making tools is so satisfying! Thanks for the lovely video.

Thank you for taking the time to film this.

Oh man, the ring of that anvil. That's a good anvil... So many blacksmiths I've seen on youtube are using old dead or cheap anvils. An anvil like this is worth its weight in gold to a craftsman.

Well worth watching - something to be proud of !!

That is one beautiful hatchet. Well done, and very interesting to watch, as always.

Thank you, ''The mark, of a true Tradesman'' !!

finally the one I've been waiting for!!!

This is true art! not that junk you see in art galleries.

Excellent work Torbjorn! Typical for you! Love your work and video presentation. Thank you for taking the time to share with us! Su Amigo Siempre.

Very Nice !! Love the natural finish on it.

I wish I had half of the equipment and skill this guy has.

awesome job!

Beautiful work, as always!

Poetry in motion, Celestial symmetry, Mind of a Mentat, with the heart and soul of an artisan. Salute to you Torbjorn! So Inspiring! Gratefully ~PJ

That ax is pretty magical

that's a big ass anvil

Of all the axe videos on KZfaq, this one is my favorite. Thank you.

Thank you for taking the time to show us the making process step by step, the final result looks truly amazing! You inspired me to forge my own, more primitive, hatchet. Nice touchmark stamp as well!

No dancing no singing no X factor nonsense true real mans craftsmanship men were respected for having these skills at one time quality craftsmanship 👍

好喜歡聽到這種打鐵的聲音,懷念爸爸跟阿公做刀的樣子!我好想哭~

'Why would you want to split your cutting edg- He's gonna do an insert!' Huge respect for going the extra mile.

As a fellow artisan its a pleasure to see you work. So much of what we do is so wonderfully quiet and patient and your videos ooze that wonderful world we live in. Thanks for giving us a peek

Ååååå, den här karamellen skall jag suga på en stund! Perfekt video när jag går och lägger mig ikväll. Kan knappt vänta!! Det är så grymma videos du gör Torbjörn så man blir mållös. :)

Your layout of your workbench and your equipment makes me so jealous haha

Very Impressive work, I enjoyed the video during our crazy times. I never thought of laminated axe before, very clever skills. I bought many hand-forged blades from Sweden, Finland and Norway based blacksmiths and I have to say it must be in your DNA, well done from Australia.

your craftsmanship is impeccable. i literally can watch you work for hours.

Love your power hammer! Want!

Only one thing I see wrong with this axe... It's not here with me!

great craftsmanship. nicely done.

Nice job,very well done,great to watch

Great video, Sir.

I sure hope you know how inspirational your work is to us amateurs. Your videos have been a great help in my learning of new skills and techniques. Thank you for taking the time to share.

Thank you so much for sharing Torbjorn, I live in urban California, USA and without videos like these, I doubt I would ever be able to have such an experience.

That is one serious swage block.

Вот такой топорик в хозяйство,весьма приятно иметь.

From Russia with love! It's nice to watch. Great work! From subscriber Yuri The Professional.

I like watching this guy work! Nice to see stuff done right with pride in his workmanship also. Very nice. Thankyou sir

С таким топором не страшно в лес ходить!)))

Watched a guy do all of this manually and it took him like an hour to do what you did in a less than a minute. Haha.

Such a wonderful craft.

I learned something new today, thank you! I had no clue how an axe was made. ( the right way) Super bad ass shop and tools..

Build em up up, break em down

After all of that work I would be afraid to use it!

Very nice. New forge is working nicely.

Simply amazing, truly an outstanding piece of work, the man is a true artist.

I think my screen is broken because I tried to punch my hand through the screen and get the axe and uuhhhh..you know...

What's with the respirator? Love the axe by the way!

Great video to watch. no talking, no music, just work. well done!

Nice work. Very relaxing to watch also.

i want to start blacksmithing but my mum won't let me :(

COME GET YER ARMOR

beautiful work, beautiful tool

A true master. Bravo.

This is not art, it's a trade that represents a bygone era, a valuable trade & life skill. I see true craftsmanship here, not "art". It's skills like this you want when the oil industry fades away.

ardvark pays off

great video, all important steps and preparations are clearly visible

A long and very well made work!!!

I never understood why u need to split the axe and heat weld the piece in between

that auto hammer is bad.

This is probably one of my new favorite videos from you. I love watching the whole process, especially the part about attaching the handle. I can't stand watching a video about making an axe and at the end it's just the axe head. Very well done, and the finished product looks, and seemed to perform, beautifully!

Torbjorn you made a amazing AXE very good Video. Thank you

I mindlessly watched the whole video. It is strangely soothing and relaxing, informative too. Thank you

Beautiful work indeed!

thank you Sir, i enjoyed watching!

Excellent job! Thanks for your time and for the great lesson

Absolutely amazing work. Could watch all day

You know when I was 11 I wanted to be a blacksmith. This video is further proof why I should be one! You do such a good job! Keep doing what you do!

I love your videos. Keep up the good work.

You are an artist.

Excelentes todos tus trabajos!!!! Saludos desde Argentina, La Plata!!!!

👏👏Showww!!! Parabéns!!!..Lindo trabalho!!!👏👏

a good weapon, an even better tool. an axe worthy of the name. Good job man.

Another excellent video. Great stuff.

You can't buy that kind of beauty. That is far better than grandfors. You really have talent.

25:13 Wow, an old fashioned natural whetstone. Old school rox ! 😍 Finished axe is a beaut ... seems right up there with Hoffman axes in appearance.

looking forward to the day I get a power hammer,the neighbourhood kids who used to help as strikers now flee when they smell the forge starting...such a useful tool,oh,and congratulations on your 60,000,I think that heart you forged touch us all

Great video! Great axe! This was masterful. Thanks so much for posting.
