- Creating a Pickaroon out of an old Axe. Watching the Videos of Hand crafted tools and Homesteading done by Wranglerstar has inspired me to create one of my own. I have always had a sore back picking up fire wood by hand after cutting and splitting, I believe I will have the advantage over the trees now. I hope you all enjoy the video, feel free to leave comments.
Nick, you've done yourself proud with this Pickaroon,
wranglerstar Thank you Sir! Your videos have definitely inspired me to restore all of my family's old tools, as well as create some new ones as i go. I am currently working on several other old AXE and wood working tool projects...more videos to come!
Nick Sellers
Nice man, very nice. Better than any store bought anyday IMO
Thanks, i appreciate it. yeah, i don't think you will find one like this in a store.
Great Video. Now that is a PROPER Pickaroon.
Thanks Mark!
Very nice tool you made. Happy to come across this video.
Beautiful work !!
Nick you have done a great job making it ex video
Excellent! I will make this one. 👍
Very nice modification from axe to pickaroon and ended into beautiful useful tool 👍👍
I had absolutely no idea what a Pickaroon was! Very nice job.
Very well done. Beautiful attention to detail. I am going to find an old ax head and make a pickeroon myself. Thanks for the video.
Thank you Sir, I'm glad you liked it!
Thanks for showing us how to repurpose the axe head. This project is within the grasp of most do-it-yourselfer's. My thought on purchasing the head. If I have to buy the head, might as well buy the hole thing.
i like to make great things out of not so great things.
Thanks Everyone!, i should have some new videos coming soon.
Im just wondering, since you have a double headed axe you probaly know this.
What is the actual usage of a double headed axe? I just cant of any practical usage in chopping wood with a double or going to war with a double.(not modern war ofc)
HorizonExer one side is usually a finer edge for chopping deep into the tree, and the other side is a wider edge for splitting or taking out the chunks of wood on the opposite swing. some people alternate on every other swing, and others just clear chunks every once in a while. The wider edge can also be used to limb where the wood is tougher making the edge last longer....hope that helps your question.
HorizonExer, a double bitted axe was used in warfare to allow the user to execute cuts on the return, as well as providing a second striking edge if the first should happen to become damaged. They weren't particularly common, but there are examples that exist.
Nick have you seen that new lever axe
Nick Sellers Double bitted axes allows you to start the day with two sharp edges. You can also have a very fine edge and a more chisel shaped edge for different kinds of cutting. They were popular with professional loggers years ago.
Not only does it look great, but it is very functional too. Great job.
Great tool !
Thanks for the video...I have been looking for one for awhile. After this video...I decided to make one!
Great job and nice craftsmanship! Pay no attention to the small percentage of TH-cam twits who always have to have some criticism of someone else's project. I'm convinced those jerks have never made anything. Anyone who has ever crafted a project knows that there are many pauses, reflections, re-assessments, re-groupings and then forging ahead again as new ideas come up and the project moves forward. As Wranglerstar said, "You've done yourself proud" and you have something you can pass down to the next generation! Function and beauty in the same tool! Can't ask for more than that. Well done!
that's one of the best looking pickaroons I have ever seen!
Thank you....That means a lot to me!
Absolutely first class! Turned a $10 axe into a piece of art! Great tutorial too... Thanks for sharing! 👍👍👍👍👍
Way better than anything you could have bought. I wish my father were still alive to let him enjoy this video.
That looks awesome
I bought a Hookaroon from Council Tool Lake Waccamaw NC and I cannot imagine not having it. By far the best tool I have ever owned. My back is happy again.
great result using basic tools !
Thank you for the great video.
Many thanks to you sir for giving the inspiration to get back into making my own tools again.
Good detailed work
good work.
I'm glad you all enjoyed it!
Very good loocking tool. Nice touch with the roll pin.
Excellent job!

You are awesome! The Nickaroon!
Ouaouuu SUPER boulot.
BRAVO
I really like this pickaroon. We'll done.
Thanks Lisa!
Thank you for the educational video :)
What a great job!
Thanks Shane!
Well done, you've shown how with a little time, and alot of perseverance, you can turn an old tool of one sort into a new functional tool. And i must say, the end product looks beautiful.
Thats beautiful 😍 so wanna make one
Nice bit of work Nick.
Nicely done!
Very nice! I know what my next project will be.
Very nice design and great craftsmanship. A job well done.
good job you do good work enjoyed watching thanks for sharing
Loved the pickaroon. I was actually goin to ebay to look for one, and somehow found your video.
Instead of buying one, i will build as you did.
Thanks for sharing!
Subscribed to your channel.
Keep up the good work!
Thanks for subscribing..glad you liked it. working on various projects..more to come soon.
WOW , that came out AWESOME .
Very nice! Well done!!!
Awesome, I can’t wait to make one.
Outstanding! I will definitely be doing this.
What can I add to what others have already posted. I am blown away. You rock Sir.
That is the work of a true craftsman
Tidy result! Nice work.
Functional work of art !
thats what its all about, with a bit of work u turned that ol little hatchet into a beautiful pickaroon
Very nice pickaroon sir!
Very nice job! You have inspired me to do this with an old axe I have! Thank you for sharing!
You're a true craftsman.
You said its a working tool so it doesnt need to be perfect. I can't imagine you doing a better job than this!
You're a master. Nice work.
That was awesome. Next $2 axe head i find, I know what I will be doing with it. Laughed my head off when you said "It is going to be a working tool so no need o perfect." and just moments later you were at 2000 grit sandpaper! lol - I guess perfect is a relative term! Thanks for posting
That turned out fantastic
Great work, great tool!
That's a nice piece. Great job. I'll try one soon.
Great worksmanship, well done indeed! I like how the lower lip meets the thicker profile of the handle. What a marriage.
Awesome , I have and old axe, going make one soon. I can feel it saving my back already !!!
Awesome work
so nice man really good job
Wow, well done. Love that you did it for $4 + handle!
Really nice work! Almost too nice to use. Stay well, Joe Z.
I loved every second of it. Great job, looks and probably is better than one you could ever buy.
I appreciate that, that means alot. Im glad you enjoyed it.
I think that was brilliant. What a fantastic job, and if I may say, much better that the expensive offerings on eBay. You should consider selling them. And for those that think this is a worthless tool, this would be invaluable to someone like me with a bad back. I've watched that video a couple of times now. I love it. Good job!
Turned out awesome.
That is one good looking pickaroon!
That is so cool
Great job!
Nice job man.
very nice!! you should be very proud
Great video. Thanks.
Surely no one could better this... real art
Done with pride from the heart. I like it!!!!
Nice job well done.
Beautiful job! Thanks for posting.
THAT was BADASS!
...workin' tool... doesn't have to be perfect... i'm on 800 grit now... i won't go higher than this 2000...
The tool obsessive ocd made me smile. Nice Job!
I chuckled at that as well. And then he goes on to say that if there's any scratches left it will give it character... Like you could see the scratches a 2000 grit left anyway.
Absolutely beautiful!
So enjoyed this vid, loved the quality of the finish especially the countersinking of the roll pin.......inspirational
I love to see such care and pride put into a hand made piece, a job well done
Man he's good.
Great, must needed tool!
Looks great! I need to start watching the pawn shops so I can steal your idea. Thanks for sharing.
this looks more professional then the stuf you can buy today in my country, well done!
Nice work. I need a pickaroon for the very reason you described. Thanks for awell done video.
Very nicely done! Inspiring. Now, off to find an old axe head...
Nice work, now I’ve got to build one.
