It seems to me that people that still enjoy this type of work are just real people. My dad recently passed so I’ve inherited his axes, saws and several tools all in need of repair, really a thorough servicing, so I thank you for your help and your great personality. Definitely a blessing.

I always learn when you share knowledge and tips you have learned . Thanks

Thanks buckin that was very helpful hope your hands okay also wanted to say welcome to all the new subscribers we are happy to have you here with us

Always enjoy your videos brother!!! Hopefully my family and I can make it down to buckinstock!!!!! Really hoping that our financial situation is heading in a better direction by then. Stay safe brother and keep the awesome videos coming!!!!! Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!!!!

I love the positive energy my brother. Watching has been a glorious learning curve. Thanks billy.

Excellent tutorial as always. You da man🌲🌲🌲🌲

Welcome to all the I new subscribers, you've all arrived at a very exciting time for the channel.....what a ripping vid and a great way to head into the weekend......really took note about the shelf as have been guilty of it. Have an awesome day / weekend everyone...love n hugs for mama buckin...😎👍🇦🇺

Love that old belt sander Buckin! Great re-haft on that boys axe. Cheers from Ontario

Great learning video thank you peace and love to all. Keep smiling and be happy 😃

Hitting the same spot reminds you how it hurts and the bones definitely don't like it. You should ice it down to minimize the swell. Hope it heals fast. You have been more into sharpening I see. Its fun. I like it. Wish you and your family a happy day. Mort

Welcome To The Channel Of Love, Kindness, and Good Hearts. Pull up a stump, and smell the sweet scent of Wadka ! It just gets better and better. ~Chris~

Buckin nice job again thank you welcome newcomers

It’s 8:34 and My 2 year old Ezra has picked to watch Buckin for bedtime once again. No joke we’re going on 6 months of him picking Buckin to watch for bedtime. Truly blessed that this little guy loves watching you I hope he always remembers to be kind

Picked up a few good ones for sure. Just acquired a nice True Temper double bit, this will my first hang in a good 20 years. And welcome to all the new Subs!!

26,000+ subs! We've only just begun.........

Welcome new subscribers! I like that you use the grinder to take the ax head down to fresh even metal then sharpen the edge. Wow that had to hurt when the ax hit your wrist. Hope it's not causing you any undue pain. Accidents happen and we deal with them the best way we can. Hope you and your family have a wonderful weekend.

Thanks for all the content buckin!! I hope the army has a fantastic weekend and be safe

I'm glad I found this video. It inspired me to get a vintage double bit Thompson How Hickory. Love vintage stuff...

Nice Billy, i love that band sander on the bunkers pourch, so useful an a clean job it does.... that wack to your hand was a dinger to ouch!! Nothing to a good old boy logger, bite down an charge fourth right bud... Thanks for what you do.. id like to show you my axe collection some day i love those German heads!! Arms wide open

Thank you Mr. Billy Ray S. thanks for taking the time to show us how you do things, and its most entertaining too! He He GB,, Joe R.

Awesome did my first axe in 50years today, thanks for the advice, it's good advice , I listened and took your advice. 🇦🇺👍 I'm going looking for more old axe heads, it's good work and fun...cats meow yes the eye in the sky explains it well..when I see you in the trees I'll boil the billy tea or coffee I'm guessing Coffee.

Axe community! didn't know this was a THING, so glad to find you. So stoked that this is a thing! Here's to you BBR!

Welcome all new subscribers. Thanks for yet another great video Billy. When you gave yourself a good wack, I felt it...I actually did that just the other day and drew blood. "I don't remember there being red paint on the handle..oh would you look at that! My hand is dripping" Haha, it's all good though. Much love!

Hey everyone, new sub here but I feel like I have come home. Love the messages of kindness, outdoor centered lifestyle, and genuine excitement for life. Amazing! Keep it up and know that you are making a difference. Thanks Buckin'!

Very helpful video, rhymes with Rodeo. Ice that whack a do - ouch. These videos get me on the right path, I thank you. Man, I've so much bucked still to split, my body will be the shortcoming after tuning up the forged steel tools. Yup, I need a body tune-up. Anyone want to jump in on the body tune-up prep for us old desk jockeys emboldened with will but weak in the core? I'll need a full body ice bath by Monday. Be well. (Spinach, that's what I need and It's all what I need.)

Just....absolutely! had to comment on your awesome channel, and your awesome enthusiasm Buckin’! First time checking you out, and you’re off the charts authentic! Off the charts friendly! And off the charts entertaining! Last fall I unearthed a very similar, massively pitted, single blade axe head, while metal detecting an old, long forgotten farmstead, here in Ontario Canada. I had left it on a rock, thinking it wasn’t worth the effort. But after repeatedly thinking about its potential, I went back last week, and had a bit of a time finding it again. Your video couldn’t come at a better time! I’m so inspired now to bring this long forgotten, discarded, old pitted relic, back into the 21st century! Thankyou for showing the world that nothing is too far gone to not be re-appreciated.🙏 I’m a new fan and will gladly subscribe and follow you from this day forward my friend. Peace and much happiness.❤️ Mark Y.

Just found the videos a cpl weeks ago and can’t stop watching them lol I have watched almost all of them in like 12 days keep up the awesome work buckin , your friends joshua m

The pitting makes it look cooler. Fresh cut bits combined with pitting over the eye area. I'm going to have to try this. Thanks for the detailed information and enthusiasm. One of a kind.

You took a little pain for the axe end that touch of love you gave it will stay with it and make its service that much better. What a great teaching video! BBR you are a teacher extraordinaire. Thanks for another great session. Y’all have a Day!

Seen one of your earlier videos on how to fit an aex head and that helhed me a lot when i had to refit one of my own axes. Head Got loose as this one of your vifes. So as you said: By just looking on videos here you actually learn a lot, so Thanks Billy👍🏼😊 from Denmark.

Always learnin' somethin' new with these axe hafting videos! I love it!

Hi everybody! Have a nice Weekend!

That’s definitely a good lookin head!! Love to you and the family❤️ I hope all of the new subscribers are enjoying themselves here😃😃

Buckin! Just did that, and it works like a charm!! Have a old "Made in Hartford Conn, did the same thing you did and saved a great old double bit. Turned out great. Thanks again 11

I hope your hand heals fast.

Lots of great information here Buckin. Thanks again for leaving nothing out. 🤛Take care of that wrist...... Cheers Double D.

Ah soap & water will take that right away,Sven..Ahaha My buddy..Told ya that didn't I.. Oh friend's this place just keep's growing, Let's alway's carry on our conversation's with each other, acknowledge your comment's and return em,that's sharing in the best way..Love to you all and Take Care out there.. This day belong's to you,So own it and help someone Smile..............................3 wks. and counting down..LOL

Haha ya comfy here. I noticed you say “actually” a lot. I think I probably do too because it’s always one of my kids first words (which sounds fancy when they say it.) But anyway, you should switch from “actually” to “AXE-UALLY.” Just sayin.

Hey buckin great video as per, welcome to all the new subs, keep up the good work and keep on shining fellow #soldiersofkindness

Rarrasoa! That hurt my hand! “That’s gonna leave a mark!” Was what popped into my head! Dang it man... protect them paws...I need more videos! From dudes that don’t say “blade!” I’m so happy you threw in the ...”If the guy calls this a blade...then keep on moving...cause he’s a buster!” I really hate guys that make how-to videos and call a bar a blade! I’m gonna have to start commenting on their videos to go see Buckin... so you can learn the right way to do things and then share them. Thanks for sharing the love... awesome content... I love the crazy characters/personality’s you’re throwing in...great fun! You gotta be a proud poppa...as boy has grown up before our eyes...damn fine young man following in his poppa’s boot prints! A++. Hopping to one day get to Buckin Stock!

Love these older videos. Hafted my first axe ever on Friday (vintage Plumb). Happy with the result, but no-doubt I can get better. Learning on a hardware store handle before graduating to a Killinger handle. Be kind! ✊🏻

you are fun....and I like the way you do these things....thanks for sharing

Nice one Buckin happy whife happy life all the best from Northern California

Ahwooooo don't forget the 👍 have a great weekend love kindness to you all 👍👍👍

First. Hello everyone. Be kind. Enjoy the channel. Hello to the new subscribers!! Buckin, good video!!

Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience. Great video and hope your wrist is okay.

Hey Buckin’, I have a 4lb 36” Mann and it came with a full kerf aluminum wedge just like that. Great video!

Good Day/Evening everyone hope your all well, great to see so many new subs getting into the comments, welcome and let us know where you come from and what brought you to the channel etc, Buckin that narly double bit has got some proper patina must of been in the ground forever they look so cool like that. Iooking at the way Wendy's axe re-fit went I dont think thats ever comming off again.

Kinda like the house cleaner not wanting to clean their own when getting home. The axe Maker has a wobbly handle on his own! Hope you were able to ice that hand down? Take care of yourself, Buckin'!

Welcome to new peeps!!!!

Awesome feeling saving a piece of history!😍

Sorry for the double post, but, i forgot to add, its a old 4 lb COLLINS "Made in Hardford Conn''

Looks just like the one that foumd me while i was looking for my felking wedge i dropped. Never foumd the wedge but my new little puget is one of my favorites. Id show a pic if i could

Love how he talks to the camera just like you were there with him.

Nice job Buckin and ouch I’ve done the same thing lol keep em comin

Hey Buckin' very serious question for you, the fit round the bottom of the head you want no shelf and curl all the way round but does the top of the eye need to be full before you put a wedge in it or can you have gap all the way round and the wedge fill that out. I am making my own handle for the first time and I have found that I have got the top of the handle quite thin, it felt like it needed it to get the head on but now I am worried if my head will move? Thanks in advance buckin' you are a legend. Hope you didn't hurt your hand too much.

I'd take some of the radius out as well, because there's too much as it's been over sharpened in the past. I think at this era ( mid 70's ) Mann edge probably did use those aluminum wedges. I'm sure the steel is decent, but they sure aren't on anybody's list of axes to find.

Be kind to yourself buckin!! You know....not smashing your hand. Haha

Don't whack yourself with an axe... lol ... that hurts . Glad to see that I ain't the only one that has done that ...

Good morning Sven the more people are coming because content is wonderful

Thanks for the info Buckin. Great to know. Welcome new subs. Hi all howdy Buckin

Was Sven's Father from Mexico...? 😂 Love it

Eye in the sky is better than apple pie! "is that skin or glue" lmfao!

33:00 Ouch!!!

Hey Buddy I had a little hardware store in small town Alberta in the late 70,s and 80,s and I sold axes. The Swedish axes sold for about $20 and I sold 5 to 1 over the Ox Brand axes but I loved the Ox Brands myself so always stocked a few. They were over twice the price of the Swedish axes but the old guys who had really used an axe would come in and handle the Ox axes and I would watch their eyes light up at the feel of them. One old fellow, a big bugger, told me he had cleared his homestead quarter (160 acres) with an axe. Do you think he knew what a good axe felt like? Keep on Billying Billy

Learned a lot in this video.

Friend if I wasn't sure before I am now your a mad man. There's no way I would let my wife have her own axe. My head might be next on the chopping block he he he, I'm just kidding. Another nice job.

Nice video, Billy. You explained it very well. :-D :-D :-D

thanks buckin love this one watch it often

SVEN sounds like VAN DAMME hahaha

Like it ! Told you (artist) 👨🏻‍🎓🤙🦅

I love the go do attitude!

Good vid buckin and ouch that hand is gotta hurt I've done it before but wit a hammer swingin my hardest at something I was holdin

SVEN!! Tell Buckin to use good eye protection, and to emphasize it as well..😁👍⛏👍😁 awesome stuff buddy. What grit is that paper? Tc and Happy Hunting....ya know...for trees to bring horizontal.👍😁 more half time shuffle🥁🥁

That's a nice "she cuts" addition to the shirt. How does one get hold of such things

At least when the axe head hit you it wasn't the sharp side

I have an elk ridge tomahawk I would like to see more videos on sharpening From you Billy 🇺🇸

hey buckin

You're hard on yourself Buckin'! lol Too old school to use the PPE! You gotta take your own advice and.....Be kind to yourself...Buckin', I hope the hand recovers quickly!

that puget looks old old. they probably sharpened it on a wheel to get it thin behind the edge so it would bite deep into the big wood eh? call it the Harvey Dent or “two face” hehe. We call that the “ninja shelf” sneaky little things. love you all. thanks to all the true blues and welcome newcomers :) I’m fairly new myself

ty snowman and you are as well :)

Great little method “wood stroping”. Quite handy that.

Buckin you should send wranglestar one of your axes. See what he thinks, I bet he’ll like it. Good publicity for both channels

Wow 26k subs. Growing fast

Talk about gettin your hand smacked eh! (LOL)

The he he hes and who who whos remind me of Tigger from Winnie and the Pooh. Love it haha

Ouch!! I've smacked my hands so many times in different ways, and I know it hurts like ……! I TOLD YOU THAT, DIDN'T I?? Haha! We'll be celebrating mid summer( and what a mid summer it is...10 C and rain.. ) tomorrow, with a barbecue with some good friends. All the best to everyone, take care and be kind :)

Hey everybody you made it it's Friday

Now you can go out back and yell like hell. Wam mo

Thanks billy….I was wondering what axe handle would be good for my double bit true Kelly ?

Need a shinguard for your left wrist!

Ouch Billy. I could feel that!!

So someone said in a video I seen recently that using the power tools messes with the heat treatment and can ruin it easily, do you agree or disagree?

What kind of a belt sander is this? Been looking to get one but they don't sell anything like this in the hardware stores I've been to (in europe)

If you boil a rusty axe in water for like 20min and rub off the surface with steel wool it will change the rust to gun blue (rust bluing) wich is rust resisting and looks beautiful with a light oil. It'd make some of those vintage axes shine like new but maintain their antique status

Have a good weekend mate's you don't have to be Kind but it would be better if we where hehehe 😎👍

HIT THAT --- >🖒🤝

'mornin Buckin'-Crew ! Glorious day on this end. Love that Double Bit & Thanks fer the tip ! Mrs. Wendy's gonna be Hap-Hap-Happy now, No Wiggley-Wiggley Eh ? Welcome all new sub's Yer gonna love this fella & All the other commenters here Hay Blues ! Hope every-1 has a wonderful Fun Filled Day ! ATB Ter God Bless

Good tip s on the axe ,taking care of the wife of the wife good deal that’s the most important 😁😁

Ya know Buckin' all you need to sharpen an axe to a great edge is the grinder, a raker file and a cheap combination stone to remove the burr.
