I agree with you! I really like Rinaldi steel! It has a hardness of 56-57 HRC, sharpens very easily, and holds an edge well. It’s also super practical to have more than one handle for the same axe. The Milano is great for carving, and personally, I also find it very efficient as an axe to bring along for camping and other outdoor activities. 🪓:) Have you tried other Rinaldi models? Which one is your favorite?

@ItalskeSekery I have the Calabria felling axe and the "American" Boy's Axe as well. I like them all, but I think I use the Milano the most. I use it a lot to rough out shapes for woodworking, like spoons etc. that I sell, and also outdoors. I have kind of a specialized grind on mine because I use it mostly for carving, almost like a single bevel chisel grind. If I had left it closer to stock geometry, I would probably use it outside more. It still works extremely well for smaller trees though. I like the relatively wide, flat bit profile. I've been thinking on getting the Trento as well. Looks like it would make a very effective limbing axe with that long edge profile it has. I've found the Rinaldi axes in general work well for dead wood as well because of how thin they are compared to American pattern axes. Rinaldis have become my favorite as of late

@@AnarchAngel1 The Milano is still one of my favorites 🪓. I find the America great for chopping, and I really like the Calabria for its versatility. The Trento is also a great chopping axe, and I agree its wide blade is very useful for limbing. It’s nice to know that Rinaldi is known and appreciated abroad. It’s a family business that started in 1780. There aren’t many like it left in Europe anymore

@ItalskeSekery I feel most people here in the States simply aren't aware of them, or if they are, they don't know where to get them. They are on Amazon now, though. I get mine from a knife company here that carries them. It's also a very different style of axe than many people are familiar with. The lack of a poll, the slip fit head, and how thinly they are ground make them a little bit alien for guys used to American patterns and Swedish axes, etc. I've made it my job to introduce as many people to them as possible though, because like I said, there's a lot of things to like about them and I think I people gave them a shot they would think the same. They are definitely known, but mostly only by serious axe users who aren't afraid to stray from "traditional" designs from wherever they are from in the world

​@@AnarchAngel1 That’s great to hear you’re helping more people discover Rinaldi axes! I agree, they’re very different from the more common American and Swedish axes, which are also fantastic in their own right. But I think anyone who tries a Rinaldi will see how versatile and effective they are :)

😃💪🔪

@@ItalskeSekery ma dove lo trovo che qui non si trova, aiutamiiii

@@ale-che-fa-cose Non dovrebbe essere difficile da trovare in Italia! :D

@@ItalskeSekery domani provo a cercarlo dal ferramenta, se no son costretto a comprarlo su internet, anche se non mi piace molto comprare su internet.. però a casi estremi..

@@ItalskeSekery ma dimmi un pò una cosa, quanto ti sei divertito a giocarci mentre facevi il video? 😄😄

Rinaldi America 1100 g 🪓

I really like it too! By the way, the latest video on my channel is about the Rinaldi knife if you're interested ;)

Hi, thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed the video! I really like both axes.. they’re perfect for chopping 🪓

@ItalskeSekery Haha ok. But if you had to pick only one. Which one would you pick ?

Hi Matt, thanks for the comment! It's a rustic knife quite large but easy to handle, made to be used. I like it a lot!

Thank you so much, Brett! I’m really glad you enjoyed the video :) It’s a rustic knife that gives great satisfaction! 🔪💪

New Tool to wishlist😊🎉

Concordo fantastica la scure Rinaldi tipo milano! 🪓

a je to taky zábavné! :)

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoy my videos! A characteristic of southern Italian axes like the Sicilia and Calabria models is their thinner handle shape, which is almost triangular in the lighter versions. The wedge shape and blade angle of the Calabria are unique, but you might also like the Rinaldi America model, which has a rounded handle. I have a video on the 700g version if you're interested: th-cam.com/video/3Spc4POjmiI/w-d-xo.html

@@ItalskeSekery and thank you for replying :) well I actually already have exactly that america axe, and i love it as a chopper!! :D i am just thinking of maybe looking for a 700-900 gr calabria, or a similar in characteristics axe, to the collection, as for splitting, i think the calabria is better :) but i noticed that you wrote that the "smaller models sicilia/calabria have a triangular handle", - so how are the bigger ones then? :)

@@LexLuthor1234 I totally agree, the Rinaldi America is really great for chopping! Yes, the Calabria is better for splitting. The Rinaldi Calabria 700-900g models have the same straight handle, 80 cm long. It’s not triangular in shape but still quite thin. I have a video where I use the Rinaldi Calabria 700g version, and you should be able to see the handle shape. If you’re interested, you can check it out here: th-cam.com/video/-hBLY9WkfYI/w-d-xo.html

@@ItalskeSekery Thanks again! :) I will have a look at the video, to better understand the handle of the heavier calabria :)

Grazie a te! Il machete Angelo Bergamasco non l'ho provato personalmente, se in futuro lo avrò tra le mani ci farò un video. Posso dire che se si cerca un attrezzo per i lavori duri con il legno con il S.Giustina di Rinaldi non si sbaglia ;)

Grazie... Si vedendo il tuo video si capisce che è un attrezzo capace di fare lavoro pesante!

Anche a me piace molto! 💪🪓

Ciao! Entrambi vanno bene. Il manaresso S.Giustina lo trovo piu' versatile rispetto al machete. Consente molte lavorazioni del legno e colpisce potente come un'accetta. E' facile da usare e da trasportare. In caso di molti rovi o arbusti valuterei anche la roncola per pulire un sentiero.

@@ItalskeSekery gentilissimo!

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

Thanks! I'm already subscribed to your channel ;) Congrats on the bearded axe! It's great and really well-liked!

@@ItalskeSekery oh! thanks a lot mate!!

Dobrý den, tento nástroj doporučuji především pro čištění pozemků, kde je odolná vegetace. Snadno zvládne sekat keře, ostružiní, větve, mladé stromky atd. Posílám ho velmi ostrý a v některých případech může být pohodlný i pro pozemky s běžnou trávou, která je přerostlá (hlavně na nerovných pozemcích nebo ve větších svazích jako tady 3:17), ale pro specifické použití na rovném trávníku s běžnou trávou je kosa vhodnější volba, pokud se umí správně používat a udržovat. Tento nástroj je spíše jako mačeta než kosa nebo srp. Je snadno použitelný a udržovatelný, nenaklepává se jako kosa a její ostří oproti kose vydrží po dlouhou dobu, ale tloušťka a úhel čepele jsou méně vhodné pro použití při sekání trávy.

@@ItalskeSekery Děkuji za odpověď. Úplně dokonalý trávník co si dávají boháči před své domky to není.. přirovnal bych to ke směsi porostu, který roste na mezích mezi loukami. Pro mě jako vesničana je to obyčejná tráva.:⁠-⁠) Už to má nějakých cca 90cm a hned za tím je pruh zdivočelých švestek. V garáži mám nakřečkováno spoustu věcí a kosa už by se opravdu nevešla. Prostě nemoc zvaná hromadění. Tahle srpomačeta mi přišla jako vynikající skladný kompromis.

@@johnx553 Myslím, že v tom případě by tato mačeta s dutou rukojetí mohla dobře posloužit 😉

Thank you! 😄

Concordo! Questa, Rinaldi Tirolo, ha una bellissima lama arrotondata molto ampia, ottima per lavori di falegnameria o intaglio del legno. Bella anche per campeggio e bushcraft

@@ItalskeSekery hai colto nel segno, tra non molto dovrò frare una scultura in legno e questa Rinaldi con la lama arrotondata è perfetta per ciò che devo realizzare, grazie Rinaldi 🥰☺

@@ale-che-fa-cose sono curioso di vedere il risultato finale se ci farai un video! ;)

@@ItalskeSekery si ci farò un video

Thanks! The axe is great for chopping! 🪓 It's easy to handle, but also has good power

Thank you so much, Brett! I'm glad you appreciated the video :)

Grazie! It's a very versatile axe, super easy to carry, with a very light head weight, but it performs incredibly well 🪓

I agree with you, it's a very versatile axe. Despite the very light head weight, it performs incredibly well in both chopping and splitting, and it's super easy to carry! Thanks for the comment!

There are pros and cons compared to a brush cutter, but it's definitely a very useful tool!

Grande! E' veramente un attrezzo molto utile!

Thanks so much Brett! Glad you liked the video! It really is a very useful tool

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

Good point! Thanks for the comment!

Thanks! I have a video with the 500g version of the Rinaldi Sicilia if you're interested. th-cam.com/video/dXgq4iW9X60/w-d-xo.html

La versione da 700 g del modello Trento di Rinaldi è veramente bella e divertente da usare! L'ascia bipenne Rinaldi l'ho provata e mi è piaciuta, al giorno d'oggi è usata soprattutto per il lancio dell'ascia.. Però si presta bene anche nel taglio o volendo nello spacco.. anche se avere una lama affilata rivolta verso di me non è qualcosa che mi è mai piaciuto troppo! :D Comunque è bellissima, di fabbrica è ben affilata ma con grane grossolane e può avere un pò di sbavatura sul filo della lama.. L'acciao Rinaldi però si rifinisce velocemente e con facilità lo si porta anche a rasoio.. 🪓 (Personalmente rifinisco sempre l'affilatura dei prodotti Rinaldi che spedisco qui in Rep. Ceca).

@@ItalskeSekery Ti ringrazio per la risposta :) posseggo già il coltello da cacciatore rinaldi quindi ho un feeling generale, non sono prodotti rifiniti o altro però fanno il loro lavoro e lo fanno bene, quello è l’importante. Grazie per il feedback sull’ascia bipenne, ne ho sempre voluta una e l’unica alternativa sarebbe una ochsenkopf, ma preferisco il made in italy ;)

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed the video! The axe I'm using is the Rinaldi America with a 700g head (about 1.5 lb) and a 62 cm handle (about 24 inches). It's great for chopping. 🪓 Thanks a lot for your nice comment and for subscribing! ;)

Pokud si přeješ vidět větší špalky, můžeš zkusit toto video ;-) th-cam.com/video/rTdtEdt_fRA/w-d-xo.html

If I'm not mistaken, Ben reviewed the Rinaldi Calabria 1300g model and the Rinaldi Sicilia model. @benscottwoodchopper is really skilled with axes!

I think you are correct. As I recall it had a narrower bit and may have even been lighter in weight.

2,5 m circa sono sufficienti per me ;)

ahah piccola ma cazzuta! 💪🪓

I agree, It's very lightweight and versatile axe! 🪓

I agree with you, it's great for camping! Thanks for the comment!

Nice !i have the Beast version of 1300g and Is the best option for cutting and splitting at the same time ... Great geometry only downer Is that edgy narrow handle.

Thank you Brett! I agree!

Grazie per il commento! L'ideale sarebbe portarsi dietro più scuri ognuna per un compito preciso. Trento come ascia da taglio è sicuramente perfetta per sramare grazie all'ampia lama arrotondata che rende molto facile quel lavoro però è ottima anche come unica ascia da portarsi dietro per ripulire un'area boschiva. Il profilo sottile penetra molto a fondo nel legno e questo può far si che si "attacchi" un pò come si vede nel video, (dipende anche dal tipo di legno e dall'utilizzo), ma niente di ingestibile..

I agree, Matt! I watched and really enjoyed your video where you use it!

è veramente una soddisfazione come penetra nel legno! 🪓 :)

@@ItalskeSekery ho visto, la Rinaldi è una garanzia
