so for a little while there I've been looking for a a small hatchet kind of unique custom-made you know just for your getting

kindling ready and especially for small tasks carving something unique on its own and I finally find or I finally found a custom maker in Bulgaria his name is Ivan so I contacted him and I told him what I wanted and he made me pretty much exactly what I wanted which is this right here now if you do order something from him he's an easy guy to talk to he's very patient and even the shipping is pretty quick now it does not come with a mask okay her sheath if you are going to order one of these you got to need to make your own or have someone make it for you

just take this off here so this is it folks trying to stay in frame here of course I'll have pictures of this see it better but it's a thing of beauty and not just beauty it's very functional the steel is 1065 forged steel the handle is acacia wood which is a good hard wood you can see his mark here it's beautifully made see the grain in the woods is nice and straight it's nice right in the middle here you know aligns right in the middle of the handle it's it's well it's well maybe what can I say

so just to give you a quick look of what he did to it these are kind of I guess Celtic knots or something on both sides the wood has been smoked and burnt it's got some leather going on here beautiful work the head is very secure you got a wooden wedge and plus a steel one it's not going anywhere even has a couple uh you can see that a couple of nails here or decorative stuff it's just a beautiful piece of art and back up here beautiful piece of art it's not too heavy about one pound ahead of fifteen inches of a handle it's just awesome very nice so as you notice I just played a little bit with it for what it is it does its job flawlessly it's no it's not a big splitter but it's not made for that okay I mean it cuts deep good-size branches

there's just no problems your little carving task it's just awesome even preparing a little kindling it's perfect something else that I want to mention if you notice the handle is not round and for this type of axe or hatchet it's actually perfect even for tomahawks I don't know if you have any experience with tomahawks but when you use a tomahawk with a small head and the handle is a little bit round when you hit anything because it's lightweight and if you hit something pretty big it tends to want to bounce and you know go sideways like that and that's son and effective cut cuz you have to what's that word anyway you got to give more energy to be able to cut whatever you're cutting and what happens is every time it bounces and it turns like this when you have a round handle it wants to turn in your hands like this now being that this one is more square or rectangular okay you got a better grip so even though it wants to bounce and wants to go this way it doesn't because you're holding it and your cut penetrates where it's supposed to so very very well thought of a little hatchet for what it does I'm super happy with it yeah I'm very pleased with this and Plus this prices are very affordable what I'm going to do as usual I'm going to leave the links where you can get ahold of them and see some of his work in the description of this video also they'll go away I'm going to leave in the video right after this a few more pictures of his other work you know he does all kinds of stuff you know bigger size axes bearded access you name it so I'm going to leave other pictures of that too this is something I wanted so it's not just that that he makes all right
