    As soon as you hear "hello friends" you know its time to sit down, relax, and listen to the calm and accurate descriptions of an incredibly skilled craftsman sharing both, their experience and experiments. Thank you!!! It's a tremendous pleasure to watch!

      Ohh and how much does the head weigh? (Sorry if you already mentioned it but I don't recall.)
      I recently got a used axe basically for free. The head weighs 1250g. I converted it to a carving/hewing axe even though it's far too heavy. I filed the left bevel as flat as possible to 7 degrees (I'm right handed) leaving the right bevel at 25 degrees. I will saw off the handle at ~40cm. And finally, but most noticably, I shaped the handle ergonomically right under the head. That's where I grab it to chop and carve.
      Now I can carve wood in a chopping motion, almost like a butcher would use a cleaver, by ignoring/discarding the lever advantage of the handle and only relying on the weight of the head. I use it e.g. to turn square stock round-ish, following up with planes (I don't have a lathe). Or to carve a rounded/spherical end into a beam (my "hatchet" makes quick work of the end-grain and leaves a good surface quality - much like your powerful cloggers knife).
      My improvised hatchet/hewing axe/heavy carving knife is probably quite un-traditional (if there's a similar traditional tool I'd love to learn the name). And probably a 750g head would work better (lifting the heavy head is still a bit tiring). But it was cheap and works for now. But I always appreciate better (but affordable) suggestions!

You mentioned that you would have made a better and larger vacuum chamber on your own if you were to do this again, and while it is typical it makes me wonder if you are not some form of engineer in reality.

    I love this axe, and basically everything about it. it looks to me like an ideal tool for most any woodworking project you care to mention, from splitting logs to (roughly) shaping pegs to most things 'bushcraft'.
    the shape also reminds me a lot of what comes up when people like Skallagrim talk about 'fighting axes' and 'battle axes', and how they look and are shaped. looking at this, I can truly believe that Norse farmers picked up their most dangerous tool to go viking for fun and profit 900 years ago.
    I'm not saying it could fend off a bear unless you had some really big balls, but I am saying it certainly looks the part.
    all in all, this axe impresses me in many ways, from how it looks, how it functions, to how it makes me wonder about the people who lived, worked, fought and died centuries ago, to the care and hard work that went into its make and testing. Keep doing what you do man, you're in inspiration to us all.
