Well done URBAN LUMBERJACK....

Thank you!

This is one application where a 36" handle would be an advantage.

[@urbanlumberjack]

For sure! I love hewing with my full size double bit!. There’s a video on here somewhere where I’m hewing with one.

[@dennisobrien3618]

@@urbanlumberjack I'll search for it. Thanks.

[@Joey-L]

Impressive. Is this a cordwood challenge entry perhaps?

[@urbanlumberjack]

I heard they added hewing! I haven’t done the cordwood challenge but would like to soon

[@Brian2bears]

​@@urbanlumberjackhewing is a yes...and you will qualify if you submit this footage....

[@dennisobrien3618]

You're supposed to do it barefoot, like the Japanese😊

[@urbanlumberjack]

Absolutely! Working up my confidence to try it out

[@aprilnichols2806]

I always enjoy your videos. But this one made me cringe.😂

[@urbanlumberjack]

Haha oh no. Worried about an axe to the shin? It’s a risk for sure.

[@aprilnichols2806]

@@urbanlumberjack that was definitely my concern. Hopefully it was just camera angle.

[@urbanlumberjack]

The camera angle is super deceptive! Most of the time my legs are far out of the way.
Control is really good with a light axe, and after a few logs you get a really good feel for where the axe is going to go.
