- How to Make a Stone Axe - Learn an easy way to haft a stone aged forest axe. Wait to the very end to see the axe in action by felling a tree. Watch full swings, flintknapped stone and history unfold in-front of your eyes.
If a stone aged axe is not for you try something more modern like a Gransfors Bruks Scandinavia Forest Axe. It’s the same one that accompanied me on History Channels Alone Season 6.

That crackling of fire reminds me of Christmas morning
“Stick around, I hope you enjoy. “ immediately takes off shirt
and sure enough, there was not one, but many sticks around

That was awesome buddy!
Thanks brother. Glad you liked it and appreciated it. 🤙🤙🤙
imagine how useful this guy is in an apocalypse
Haha. I hope so. Thanks for watching.
incredible. ive never seen an axe made like this before. in awe. keep up the great work
Good video. Great demo. The flint should sharpen itself with each swing. Mini flakes and such.
Ground axes are hell to make primitively. I made one from granite and it took me weeks.
Yeah i tried to make a ground axe. Lets say I settled for a tranchet axe
It is amazing to think of our first ancestors working out these methods! Fascinating video and so cool too thank you! 🤙
I like stone tools a lot, but for long term living steel is so much more effective. Still a really good video, nice work 🤙
Steel will always out last, this simply showing a method from our ancient past...don’t forget we have used stone far longer than steel. Thanks for watching.
Very good ideas here. Especially use of fire. Thanks for sharing this!
Haha he looks so preppy in his sweater then he takes it off and immediately he’s a wilderness survivalist.
That was great!
Saw your tik tok videos on facebook. Youre easily one of the most intresting people around. Subscribed.
Might be one of the coolest channels I’ve subbed to in a long time..
There's some great use cases using the technique you used for carving a hole. It's amazing what can be done with some time, patience and ingenuity. I love watching these videos and learning what can be accomplished with the most basic of tools. That tree got close to landing on you though lol nice reflexes. Anyway, great video, keep them coming!
Thank you buddy✌ for your teaching everything you do is most definitely handy look forward to learning more
Outstanding video, it takes a great deal of work to make these.
Originally found you on TikTok. Your work inspires me to try out knapping. Keep doing what you’re doing!
Lowkey this vid is peaceful and calming 😇
It's nice to learn the old ways just in case of unknown disasters to happen in your life. You can never be to sure.
Absolutely. Appreciate you watching.
This is your best video yet! :-) thank you for explaining why you did each step!
I followed you from tiktok you are the only one calming my head right now I hope you are safe and happy
so i got an ad about a min into the video and i gotta say that ad was funny af watched the whole thing that was a hell of a spoon 🤣. Good video btw Donny love the stone axe
Thank you for sharing the video it is educational.
Great job!
I did a few double takes watching this video because I kept feeling like Geralt from The Witcher was teaching me how to make an axe.
Thanks for the video you rock!
That is amazing! Quiet a lot of work too! Thumbs up.
Appreciate it greatly. Thanks for watching.
I love your videos very inspirational you're a good dude
thank you soo much thats whaat i needed a perfect awesome stone axe
Thanks Geralt
HAHAHA. I have heard that before...thanks! you are too kind!
Your videos are the best you inspired me
A realistic ballistic dummy head / torso test would be awesome
Thanks for teaching me man👍👍👍
Very nice brother!
This video is awesome now I know how to make a stone axe without rope. Also I subscribed
This the guy from TikTok love your vids
Stfu
Im starting to like your videos survival is something most have forgotten either on purpose or unconsciously you give hope to the survival of our species taking the time to share knowledge that should be common knowledge arround the globe as i said we’ve either forgotten consciously and unconsciously
Very good 🙂.thanks for the interesting and useful videos)
No problem
May you make a video of how to make a campfire on rainy days?
Nice video bro thanks for sharing
A silver sword and a steel sword would look good together.
I love your videos and this one is no exception!
Approx how long did it take to gouge out that socket in the pine wood for the axe head to fit in?
I heard that polished stone axes outlive knapped ones by 10 times, maybe grind it and make a comparison
anyways, love your work, cheers!
Thanks and greatly appreciate it. Total time to include, burning the hole and sealing with pitch...about two and a half hours. A ground or polished axe does outlast a knapped one. I have a few ground ones I need to make a video on. Thanks for watching.
I wish to live the life this man created
You can! All it requires is a good plan!
Is this guy from the survival show Alone????
It’s me.
I have a peck and ground celt I need to finish shaping. This gave me some ideas for hafting.
awesome. Glad I was able to give some ideas to you. Enjoy. Thanks for watching.
That’s so cool!
Very cool Donny👍
I'm watching you on ALONE right now donny

@@Anonymous-di4nb is it a bad game?
@@glissyman no but those comments are annoying me
@@Anonymous-di4nb ok
That tree almost struck back at 11:44. Good stuff, man. Going to attempt one of these. Working on a Macuahuitl. Butt, handle, and blade are done. Got ahold of 43 lbs of obsidian. Just need tools to practice knapping. Cheers!
And that's a stone axe. I had never seen one made. Now I have.
Cheers.
Great to know, thanks 👍
I have found broken axes found in a place next to the road I am pretty experienced at finding things here in the Midwest hint battle of Vincennes Indiana buffalo trace not many know where it's at all were granite love what your doing
Very cool
You got some deep patience dude. Those things take time.
very nice axe
Remember when me and my friends made stone axes and we used peels from sticks for a grip
They worked pretty well
My favorite content. Wish this dude was my uncle
God bless you!!
I think, n I'm sure I'm not alone, you're awesome 👏

I'm surprised the rest of the stick around the hole didn't weaken from the fire.
Wow using fire as a cutting tool is pretty impressive.
Man that I wanna try.
If anyone can...you can my bro.
What are sum starter tools and things I should do for my first night in the wild I know I’ll need a fire a shelter and running water (I was in the army for a short time ) but what weapons did you start with did you start with fishing or trapping small mammals and Reptiles
You should do alone again
Geralt, is that you?
This is the best conent ever would love to get some tips on how to make other things as well if I wanted a weapon I would go to you could sell your stuff and make some money of it
Wow, that's nit as sharp as we use with iron but you just made it, awesome
Iron and stone are different.
Never seen pine pinch glue made like that. Very expedient..........
Nice Gerald of Rivia..
A good way i also puting stick in the mud or clay and burn from soft soft side. The edges are safe.
Hey there, do you happen to have any books out at all?
People forgot how to use fire to make stuff. It amazes me how many things you can do with fire when you have the knowledge to use it
Yo, Donny, the Asian guys use chisels to make the initial hole in the wood and burn around the hole to shape/harden it. Asian people use chisels MUCH more than others. I'm gonna use their trick to speed up the axe making :) Just a quick stone chisel beforehand
The nerve damage in my leg is healing up :) I'm planning to stay a year in nature (i'm in Albania. Once the rainy season is over, I'm heading out (late march-april). There are a lot of mountains here so I'm just gonna run into the mountains (I'm from Indiana, not used to mountains lol). I don't have any attachments or desires in this society. My plan is to make stone knives and sell them in whatever town I am near for money for various things (salt and vegetables). I want to hunt and live as a free man. Shakyamuni Buddha urges...
Unlike last time, I have a couple months to prep and scout areas. I want to use my mind and my hands. I want my body to get ripped and shredded (strong). I want to be free. More free than I already am. God has been pushing me to be able to live in whatever place. HE guides me. The quiet voice.
I wish you peace in this psychotic world. I hope that you are able to find your peace within your own mind. Women are the here and now. Men live in their minds. Women are simple; men are stupid. Two halves of the same coin. I'm 29 and have no connections. I want to be one of them natural wild men of GOD... one of them "free-range" men; like them chickens :)
P.S. The Asian (I think Vietnamese... 2nd guess Thai) channel is called Primitive Technology Idea. Type in 365 Days How I Survival to find a cornucopia of knowledge.
P.P.S. Your channel has fuchin' EXPLODED over the last couple months! Enjoy it! ;) But remember your freedom. Cherish the soft, sensitive little boy that is our spirit. Too many forget that. GOD knows all. Our spirit is ALL we have.

This guy has lungs of steel!
Why do you burn the hole instead of carving one out? Is it easier? Does it make the hold stronger?
I’d just train a beaver to do my felling.
That would be great to watch.
I watch your TIKTOK and awesome videos
Stone axes like these were used to cut down much of Europe's ancient forest. They just beaver chewed through the trees.
Where did you get the stone?
Geralt teaching us how to make stone axe for monsters.
Didn't know Geralt of Rivia makes TH-cam videos
why pine sap and charcol and poop (of all things) for glue?
He looks like Geralt of Riva.
I’m not sure who that is, but thanks?
What kind of shoes are you wearing?
What kind of stone is this is it flint ?
Axe are so useful. In my region of the world its equivalent to the katana for japan
How do u make the axe head
I stumbled upon your videos on Tik tok this morning. Everything you’ve crafter is f****** awesome!!!! 🤟🏽
I just subed
Have you ever done peck and grind for an axe?
Why not shape a flake, fit it to a bow drill set to help hollow out your cavity as opposed to your axe head?
It’s for sure a way of producing a hollow portion. It works, but it will require other tools I didn’t have. I had fire...so that was the tool I used.
@@DonnyDustsPaleoTracks
Fair enough! Was merely curious!
I’ve always wanted to do this but how?? Did you just go to a random Forrest and start living there or did you pick a specific place I don’t wanna go to jail for trespassing on someone’s land
I go to different places. State by state. All have different regulations. I usually go to BLM and National forests.
Donny Earth!? Who would change an ultra cool name like Donny Dust!? Who!? 💚
How do you determine the best type of stone to use for flakes/ knives/ axes? My property is basically Shale and Im sure there are other types of stone that are more suitable but curious if you have any advice on finding the right type of stone to work with. Thanks for the information!!
I don't think if hes gonna awnser, but I can recommend flint and oval stones, you can find the oval ones at a river/lake/sea
I mean almost every stone works as long as it doesn't break into tiny pieces
To find my axe blade, I walked on a rocky ocean facing beach. Most rocks there were round, but eventually I found a very nice flat oval shaped one, with one end slightly narrow - perfect for inserting into a handle hole like he created in the video. The stone of mine is like basalt or similar, definitely not sedimentary which would fracture. I am going to have to hand grind the striking edge of it. If I was in a forest I'd look for a creek or a blown over tree root, and look for hard stones under it. This is a great video. I like his coal method. My wood handle is alder or something very green and hard, very hard to work. A coal might have made it easier to make the hole for my axe head.
I'm curious as to how to make a saw blade from stone, I can easily assume using small flakes alternating, but seeing it done by someone who's familiar with the techniques would be far more educational.
FIRE BAD NEED REMEMBER FIRE BAD FIRE BURN UNGA!!!!
11:40 uff, it was close 😱
I watched you on alone sorry about what happened to you there in canada
