With as much surface area as the titanium axe head has, there’s a strikingly uniformed beauty! With all the colors from the blade to the back of the axe, not one overpowers any other. Absolutely remarkable creation! Really, really impressive, Tim!

As an axe throwing fan, this project is extremely exciting. Unfortunately, it's a one-off no chance of buying one. Great job, Tim.

Hi Tim!! Great work! I throw axes in high-level competitions and to answer your question about the sweeping on the bottom of the head, that's actually by design. The rules for both WATL and IATF state that the score for a throw is measured by where the metal of the head meets the plane of the board; that means that any part of the head buried inside of the board isn't counted. For every shot in WATL and for the clutch shots in IATF, a maximum length blade is ideal for the way the scoring zones work. As the boards get more beat up, the axes can sink pretty deep inside, so if you flat your shot on a beat up board (land the axe in the board so it's basically perpendicular to the ground) the scoring zone might be 2-3" into the axe head. Having the bottom sweep down like that is important so you don't lose as much coverage on a beat up board. Since axe throwing rounds are frequently decided by a matter of millimeters, you want to reduce any possible loss of coverage without compromising your throw or accuracy.

Hey Tim, I am a bladesmith from Brasil, would you be interested in selling the axe that was too small? I would love to finish it, never had the chance to work with titanium on a big piece like that, and would love to do it.

cutting titanium with an angle grinder is how I found out how flammable a fuming pile of shop rags are. Love the sparks :D

Man, the anodizing turned out insane, just adds that big cherry ontop of a beautiful axe. If you want your purple heart to really be purple, add some heat to it - I use it for my handles on my saws etc and if you don't keep it outdoors the purple will actually stay quite a while.

Wow. This is one of the first projects I’ve seen on KZfaq in a long time that made me smile uncontrollably and audibly say “wow” in a room by myself

You might have created a monster! I could see every serious axe thrower in the world calling you to make another one. Maybe you could sell them to the appropriate axe throwing organization for use as trophies for competitions?

I am SO happy to see these type of videos making a comeback. That's why I started watching this channel way back in the beginning and hope to see more like these, such as the monster chainmail he made probably 3+ years ago and of course the titanium hammers etc. So enjoyable to watch. Thank you Timothy.

Crazy. I didn’t realize this until today, I actually live less than an hour from Sackin Metals. In terms of useful information, that’s about as useful to know as is getting gum stuck to your shoe.

Tim, I’ve followed you from the start and you just get better. Not just your shop projects, but your personality and your film production as well. Gives me a smile!

Beautifully made. Always awesome when you pull all the stops with titanium. So many colours, and you can see the time you put into it.
