Bought one after seeing this review. Damn fine tool, it's become my new favorite hatchet for light bushcraft and and essential piece in my camping kit. I added a finish to the handle because irs sold completely untreated, which I like because it gave me the freedom to add whatever stain/finish I desired. Side note: if you wanna get one in your hands before purchase, in the US, they are available at any Woodcraft store
I added some neats foot oil to the handle. Great value hatchet
Love mine
I own 2 Bison axes... I will put them up against Gransfor Bruk, Hultafors, Hultz Bruk, Helko Werk ....& Iv owned them all..
I feel this channel deserves more credit than it gets
Thanks very much Tzmaster4848 🙂
I have this axe and it’s worth every penny east to sharpen I use a disk are tool for that. I reckon I paid 85 usd at a town festival which is fair since it’s about €70
I stumbled across this video and watched the whole thing! Great job! I particularly liked how the intro was of you using the product.
Thanks Cheryl
Nice shots, and it does look great. Used to love setting up camp, making stools, hangers, building the fires. My favorite "buy" is prime lenses, although I shoot mostly with zooms (street, some wild life).
Thanks Steve. I think that lens I’ve been using is my favourite lens of all time. Covers 20mm - 50mm equivalent at f1.7, makes in incredible versatile. Although I’m on micro four thirds so you loose some bokeh
I'm here for the Leica 10-25 and watched the whole axe review and loved it xD Greetings from Germany btw ;) Great work!
Haha, thanks! It’s a nice axe. Small world.
Funny, I have a nearly identical Jägerbeil (hunting hatchet) made by Wisent, another German company, which is a contract partner with toolstore Bauhaus. They are just as amazing and affordable as the Bison. And I assume now that Bison made this hatchet for Wisent/Bauhaus. Bison is an old german traditional axe maker, which is located in beautifull Großschönau, a small village in the hills of Saxony directly at the border to the Chezch Republic.
Wisent=Bison
Really very high-quality video, I'm really impressed, you can see the work that went into this video
Thank you! 🙂 Enjoyed making this one
There is another exelent and not very expensive German brand - Krumpholz 1799r.
Nice axe, but I'm not ready to buy my expensive one yet. I did recently invest in a Boreal 21 and can't wait to get out to use it.
Looks like a great saw!
Got a wee bit tipsy one night, a week later an Estwing sportsman axe landed. Happy days! That said, I think Amazon should have a breathalyser🤔
Haha bought an Estwing Sportsman a couple of years ago on a whim. Great wee axe. Not just as photogenic though.
Pretty sure I’ve never bought a tool “tool” on a whim but I did go out and buy myself a block of sculpy and a bunch of tools to sculpt with just after the Christmas video ... I have yet to use any of them 😅 Art supplies are my vice, even though I rarely ... art.
Just waiting on the right project!
Honestly my last impulse buy was a bison axe the other day what can I say... January sale £45+vat I just couldn't help myself. Granted if I could find a nice small Sheffield made axe I'd be all over it but until then I'm sure this should do the trick
Enjoy! Mines still going strong
Now I have to buy an axe as well?! Jiminy Cricket!! From dark, foggy and ghostly Kinsale! ☘️☮️🤘🏽🤠👍🏽☮️☘️
Haha Sonny, you don’t need to buy it, just admire the pretty pictures. Unless of course you have a burning desire to buy a hatchet 😂
@@StephenJReid Well I didn't, but I do now!
Good info here. Once again I wish I was a camper.
Thanks. I have too many hobbies with interesting gadgets 😂
Excellent. Loved the colours in this video and how they popped.
Do you think it hurts your channels growth switching to totally different tropics all the time?
Yes. Yes it does. 100% channels that only focus on a niche grow much faster.
But I don’t care. If I can’t make videos about whatever I want then I don’t see the point. I would get completely bored with just doing the same type of content all the time, I’m just too easily distracted.
But yeah, often the channel views take a dive when I post something a bit random. TH-cam actually punishes you for not sticking to a niche.
@@StephenJReid my channel skyrocketed with the lockdown and folks wanting to learn about their lawns. I'm amazed by it all.
Though you do this sort of stuff for a living, I just throw fertiliser all around the place.
I know very little about photography or cameras or even videos for that matter lol.
Stupid algorithm. I enjoy the variety.
Made in East Germany! 💪😎
Quality product!
What! £77 for a hatchet. Looks like the Rolls-Royce of hatchets lol, sure does seem sharp. I hope that tree is ok. Nice smooth bokeh on that camera.
Thats actually cheap when it comes to these kinds of hatchets. The most popular brands are £100+ They are designed to last longer than their owners.
Stephen J Reid oh, guess if they last it’s worth it. Could you shave with it lol
I used a leather strop on it and yeah got it up sharp enough to shave hairs off my arm 😁
You can make litterly anything into an art movie :P :)
Rowan was thinking you were going to make a treehouse over here :P
A treehouse would be amazing! Not sure I’d be allowed to though! 🌳 🏠
@@StephenJReid Ahh that's just a small bump in the road ;) :P
How do you do this.. I literally now want a hatchet never before have I ever wanted one lol
The very essence of marketing 😂😂
The grain orientation on that handle is terrible. If that grain lifts and you run your hand up it, look out. It can cause nasty accidents. I have seen it happen.
You mean the surface of the handle could have splinters lift up? Yikes
@@StephenJReid when the grain lifts is bad. But when it parts can cause bad injury. My mate had a axe like that, he ran his hand down it, went into his palm and jammed into the base of his fingers. Ex worked in hospital and told me of lad were the wood went into base of thumb into his wrist. This is why you should always buy a decent handle. Me i would buy a good handle and fit that instead. Last a life time.
@@johnmutton799 Sounds like anything you can buy then, you'll always get the odd accident !
A Thai bride.
Err what? 🤔
@@StephenJReid I liked the look of her AND she was affordable. 👍
😂😂 Oh right you were answering my question 🤣🤣
