Watching you work is inspiring. Makes me want to hone my own artistic craft in animation!
amigo eu gostaria de ganhar esse machado mas nao para mim mas para presentear um canal brasileiro chamado "Sobrevivencialismo"
Здравствуйте.А какую сталь вы использовали для силовика?
Super cool axe thanks for sharing this forge weld method never seen it before
patiently gonna wait for another masterpiece
Homie just told us to do it the easy way, then said we were cowards... I'm subbin to this maniac.
😂😂😂 you too??
I remember one coward: me. 😄
He said "who remembers a coward"...
I had a dream to make an axe for my Dad but it didn’t happen and now he’s gone. He was a great bush logman back home in Australia. Now in Germany I miss my shed and equipment. Another life I guess. Beautiful work Nils.
I am 74 years old and l so enjoyed watching you do this axe
I've never forged anything and I have no intention of ever forging anything, but I really enjoy watching a skilled artist sharing their knowledge and ability with us. Thank you!
I gree with you and know I'll never do any blacksmithing.
Maybe 30~40 years ago I would have tried but not now.
Of all the forging channels that I watch with my Son and the talks that I've had about him starting up his own forge, you really captured my attention! It's more than obvious that you are a Master Craftsman of your Trade! The owner of an axe like that would a proud owner indeed!
My great grandfather was a farrier . I feel a massive connection with your art when I watch your channel. I have just returned from a drive to Jarna south of Stockholm from our home in the UK and I felt a deep ancient connection with Scandinavia whilst there thank you reconnecting me with the trade of my ancestors.
My Opa always told me anything worth doing should be done the right way no matter how everyone else was doing it. And do it right the first time.
My 7 yr old and I love watching your videos. We would be honored to be fortunate to own any of your tools
Awesome work Nils, I have nothing against people using heavy machinery in their process, but nothing beats the personal touch and connection you create with every piece you make ... and it feels :) Thank you !
I like the fact that only the edge is polished. The dimpling of the body of the axe head shows off the craftsmanship.
Such a pleasure to watch a highly skilled craftsman at work.
Beautiful axe Nils! I love the technique you used!
I like your story about learning to gauge heat by color. When the pandemic started, I decided to learn to cook. Many people jumped to suggest recipes but I told them I didn't care about recipes because my goal was to understand the process. I wanted to be able to cook, not just follow instructions. Your talking about color and forging because you (and the other smith) want to forge was very similar. Lovely axe, again.
the arnold poster between the axes is such a vibe
There is something magical about Blacksmithing that I adore which might stem from a previous life. I would love to own and cherish a handmade axe of incredible beauty such as this Nils Ogren axe.
This will be a fun one!
you betcha!
@ That was an amazing video as always! I loved how you took inspiration from the master smith. Thank you for sharing that bit to us all! Also, I'd like to point out the technique of heating the poll to temper the blade. I've never seen that before, and that was incredibly clever! Well done, Nils!
I can't wait to make an axe similar to the ones you make! Thank you for inspiring me. Going to be trying the fold over method soon, I have my bar of steel all prepared to get set-downs. Thank you for such awesome content!
awesome job, nice to see that some young people still find conversations with us oldies worth something
It is always nice to see people that are masters of their craft showcase there skills
It's a very unique technique that you have come up with, I was sure that the pieces would slip out of place during forge welding but you managed it just fine.
The finished axehead looks great, just as I have always believed you can apply hamburgers to anything in life.
Hamburger = Love
I though it was bacon that could be applied to anything. Maybe we need a bacon weld!
Amazing work
It's so satisfying to watch talented people make things
No one remembers the coward. Good one. You can tell youve spent some time working the steel. Looks great! Greetings from Alaska, USA
Really like the style of filming and commentary. Nice job!
Quite informative, I like it being called the hamburger blade. It is really quite a beautiful looking ax. Thank you for what you do. Can’t wait for the next project.
I liked your concept of heat treatment. It is old school, but so relaxing. Somehow like a meditation while working
Forge welding three wedges without a tack weld is a HUGE flex. That takes a lot of skill and a lot of patience. Mad props.
I dunno, do I want to win the axe? I mean... yeah? It's beautiful and expertly crafted, but I'm honestly not sure I'd ever use it. It'd be a wallhanger in my house. A beautiful, gorgeous, amazing piece of art.
I recently found the coal forge I made 2 years ago at my aunt's house, when I really didn't have the space to work with it, but now I moved and I have an excellent spot to put it in, and you're inspiring me to re-start forging!
I hope one day I can have the skill in which you make your axes. It is nice to see artist continuing the craft and passing knowledge forward.
Beautiful workmanship man it's been 50 years since I've seen anybody work like that what's my great-grandfather and my grandfather in both of my great-uncles Forge when I was a small child brings back fond memories thank you
You have given me confidence to go outside of my comfort zone and try new projects
While in my search for learning Swedish I found your channel and it's like hitting 2 birds with one stone
I have deep respect for the Scandinavian culture that's why I decided to learn it
Greetings from Mexico
Hej då!
Again a master class from a true craftsman.
That is such a masculine instrument. How beautiful. Great craftsmanship. Thank you for an instructive video.
Gorgeous axe. Form meets function meets art meets science meets soul.
Cheers from Tassie.
TH-cam suggested this video to me. I am impressed with your work. It's clear that you enjoy your work.
Many greetings from Germany!
Watching your videos is like watching a babbling brook flowing down hill. It is soothinging to watch you .
Yes..!!finally someone with some real skill and love for blacksmithing!!love it!
Very cool to see a forge without securing the pieces before forging. Very interesting, and a fine looking axe.
Kul att se någon som jobbar efter eget huvud och erfarenheter! Det bästa med denna video är att du bevisar att man inte behöver dyra ugnar och en bandslip som kostar en mindre förmögenhet. Allt som behövs är fil och låga!👍
A greatly done axe. Your narration of what you were doing and why is very much appreciated.
Don't know what it is about hand-forged items, but they always turn out really cool, no matter the method or the item. Sweet!
Workmanship is everything
Preserving ancient art, especially when you realize that you have met or exceeded the standards of a master, is a level of success few achieve. You sir are masterful!
I'm a hillbilly Missouri love sharpening everything, certified welding 10 year's, grown as child build thing's, repurpose .
Always wanted to be blacksmith watching forging huge fan.
Keep it up 👍, really like to have your creation. Disability put all my dreams on hold been cut wood all my life and worked wood made couple benches walnut and cedar very pleased, made tiny house with 4x4 pallet 6'x 4' add 4- 4"x4" posts extended 4' repurpose everything.
There's an old black Smith in Buena Vista Colorado named Al. He's a wealth of knowledge and I love visiting his shop. He makes great hammers.
I've seen a lot of the blacksmiths in TH-cam, you and you presentation is very good. Thank You.
I didn't realize how nice a good hammered ax looks. I stumbled across this channel and have been going through your videos. A lot of nice work.
I love the difference between the surface finish of the body of the axe and the deep shine of the polished edge.
You make me proud of my Scandinavian roots. I always thought that, that technique was called San Mia. Not sure though. I do love watching a blacksmith do their thing. It’s magic!! Keep it up and I’ll keep watching!
Loved the traditional approach in this build ! Beautiful tool build
I like that you're stick towards the craftsmanship side of blacksmithing instead of purely production. It has inspired me also. I was also thinking of getting a power hamer, press, and a grinder. Now i am thinking i have all i need and am very fortunate to have what i got. There are always work arounds. Thank you. Great blacksmithing!
A press is damn handy man.
@stevesyncox9893 Yeah i tell myself that evertime I'm drifting or drawing out thick material.
Happy that we just watched you and subscribed. My hubby has quite a "few tools of the trade" from his father who unfortunately passed away before being able to show him the skills. It is great to see a young fella take great pride in using these skills and passing them on and not letting them die out. Good on you, mate. We'll be watching you!
What a beautiful bearded axe. I love the shape of Scandinavian axes. I am half Norwegian and have collected several Finnish hatchets and both Norwegian and Finnish knives. Thanks for an informative video. I love seeing the process. 🔪🎸
Absolutely one of the most useful of skills man ever perfected. Beside fire, this is outstanding.
Beautiful Axe, stunning craftsmanship .first time I’ve seen an axe head made like that.
I love what that blacksmith shared with you about doing things for the love of the craft. Truly inspiring!
Interesting forge weld, and I appreciate your commitment to more traditional methods.
Good video, and definitely, forging for the love of forging is what makes a blacksmith different from others. Yes, there are many tools available to make crafting things easier, but it loses something when the essential skills learned and honed over many years is replaced by computer controlled ovens and other tools that reduce the skill needed to complete a project from start to finish.
Thank you for the opportunity to win a finely hand crafted tool that should last generations.
This is a work of art. I've learned so much just from watching this one video. Bravo, good sir. Bravo.
I’m not much for writing but you inspire me , at 61 I still get excited with blacksmith work
I'm just a humble woodsman, really appreciate your work .wish I could afford it
You are an inspiration to us all.
Thank you from the UK.
That was a beautiful way to temper, and I like how you put it together. I’d love to be one who wins your acts.
Amazing process. Years of knowledge shared in this video.
Deepest respect for one that works with his hands and creates a great, functional work of art.
I find it fascinating watching how metal an be transformed and combined into fabulous tools
Awesome! Gotto love guys that are prepared to share their wisdom, knowledge and expertise!
A beautiful axe, expertly made by a true craftsman
What a piece of art. Your craftsmanship is just amazing.
Love watching a craftsman work… art that’s useful 👍
I love the style. That you left the forging marks and only finished & polished the edges gives such a ancient historical looking, and elegantly simple (read beautiful), design.
You have been one of the main inspirations for me to start blacksmithing, currently building a new forge large enough to do axes and can’t wait to use these methods!
Really beautiful….. there is nothing more satisfying to use a hand craft tool
Years ago I used to watch the old-school blacksmith, (next door but one), he never used machine tools, only anvil and files. He re-forged and sharpened road-drill tools for the local council, all of it daylight work at the door of the forge. After quenching he'd file the ends and reheat to 'Jay's wing blue', (as he called it) then let them cool. Great to watch, never rushed. He's long gone now.
I like the heat treating segment
Incredible axe, it's been my dream since i was little to start blacksmithing and videos like these keep me inspired.
It is very inspiring to hear you talk about your inspiration... An infinite circle!
Beautiful axe, I really enjoy your work. Hand crafted work is becoming a lost art in a mechanized world.
Always a pleasure to see a craftsman at work, gj sir.
Really enjoyed watching your video. Liked the way you only polished the edge and left the rest unfinished. Nice looking ax.
This reminds me of tempering axes with my dad. Recently lost him and I have to bring all the axes back into operational status.
Thank you for caring about mastering craft, and your analysis old vs new.
Our job is to teach and learn endlessly.
Brilliant method. It's how you enjoy what I personally call, " theorize, plan, action...", then laugh when mistakes are done but most importantly learn from it. Your videos always motivates me. Thank you very much.
Beautiful axe, massive craftsmanship, pure enjoyment, thanks a lot for the information!!!! 🙏
Thank you for watching!!
Your knowledge is giving me the confidence to attempt an axe. Thank you.
Wow. I am a librarian with a big love for textile/fiber craftmanship who somehow stumbled upon your channel and now I cant stop watching. So inspiring! 🤩
Love it! If I had the means, I’d spend all day in my garage learning this craft. Something so satisfying about creating! Thanks for the video!
Thank you for watching!
Can't stop watching your video's, Love the information you're providing, Can't wait to start Smithing myself!
The lines on this are incredible
What beautiful peace of hand crafted art! So amusing to watch how iron forms in your hands. I would love to have that goweaway axe! 😄
Thank you for sharing your talent and your inspiration.
Watching you work the steel is highly motivational.
Thank you kindly
I love your recent streak of videos showcasing the multiple ways of forge welding steel bits to cutting edges. And as always you manage to to make em' bang on every time; even as a first time trying. Only goes to show your expertise and skills on the anvil
Beautiful work! I love how you didn’t touch the forged part of the axe; makes it look really pretty. It reminds me of how Japanese chisel makers work.
Great information. Just enough verbal explanation to convey intent. Easy to watch. Awesome ax! Would love to win one🎉
I just love watching the process and learning so much. Thank you Nils.
This is a beautiful axe and traditionally made by a blacksmith not a bladesmith, I absolutely agree with your thoughts about heat treating ovens for axes, adze, and broad axes. A pleasure to watch you work
I've always been interested in blacksmithing even as a kid. After the forged in fire show came.iut it renewed my interest. I haven't started smiting yet but I'm working hard to set up a safe place to start and hope to start exploring the world of blacksmithing within the next year. Thank you for sharing with us!
Damn, that is a fine looking tool! My favourite style of axe, beautifully finished.
I’m new to blacksmithing. I found this video extremely helpful. I truest enjoy your videos.
Good work. I like that you are learning to do it the traditional way, just for love of the craft.
