    I love to hear you talk about your grandfather and when you show his old tools and such. I treasure my memories and what few items I have of my grandfather. He passed in 1994 when I was just starting my senior year of high school.

    I remember my grandfather's Arkansas stone. He used to use diesel and it was the greatest stone I have ever used to sharpen my knifes. Please keep your channel going because not only do I get to reminisce, I also get to learn. My best to you and your family.

    We have always used oval stones, because we use the stone of the scythe for all tools. Here, in Basque Country, the scythes are always used with the "segapoto". This is a pot with a belt loop where you carry the sharpening stone to use whenever you feel the blade is getting less than shaving sharp. In order to keep the stone wet the segapoto is always filled with water or wetted grass. Of course, we have made a sport of this
  • I feel like I have watched you sharpen 100 axes by now, yet I continue to watch and am still a student of your methods. Keep up the great work and thank you.
  • @MIgardener
    I absolutely love your axe sharpening videos. Great work Cody.
  • Thanks for the smile on my face, talking about your grandfather and how he was patient, yet set in his ways. There is always so much that the young can learn from the older generation, if they only listen.
  • @SuperUncleRyan
    I have a Gransfors Bruks Small Forest Ax. It came out of the box razor sharp and beautiful. With the knowledge I get from your videos, I hope to keep it that way for a very long time. Thank you and God bless.

    Have a stereo in the garage, I always use a song to time sharpening my tools. Just find 2 that are around the same length and go to town.
  • @tortugabob
    Such a nice video. Enjoyed the narration. Calming. And the message about the day of rest, for man and animal, was the icing on the cake. Thanks.
  • I don't know how I first saw your videos but my grand dad recently passed away. he's been sick for years and died but I saw you talk about your grand dad's tools and all of that and I looked through my grandpa's and found lots of old axes and I'm really excited to restore one! thank-you for getting me interested in a new hobby. keep up the good work

    The oil prevents the stones surface from "packing" with material, and will make the stone cut much more efficient. It does the same as using petroleum, or whatever you choose. Water can also be used. Honing oil is the best, but its not very common in the regular household. I prefer petroleum, second to honing oil.
  • @campmein
    Thanks so much for taking the time to show the steps in sharpening an axe. I like the stories you give on family history, nothing like it...something so hard to let go of.
  • @mitchb9980
    I just bought my first hatchet for myself, it is a county tool hatchet. It is on the way and I wanted to know how to set it up to last me a lifetime, the way you demonstrate and explain things makes it easy to understand and I just wanted to say thank you and you have a new subscriber in me. Thank you again for what you do here I really appreciate it!
  • @EYALAVRAHAMI
    I'm feeling so blessed for following this wonderful channel, Specially after watching the technical videos which is my favorite ones. can't wait for the next one.
  • @paulmoore2312
    Thankyou for sharing a heritage that spans generations. Love your videos. Excellent teacher.
  • @alanj7306
    How can it be so relaxing and soothing to watch a man sharpen an axe? My friend, you’re a gift from above. God bless you and yours and stay safe!!
  • @Heirphoto
    Cody, do you remember what grits the two Edge pro stones are? They offer 120, 220, 400, 600 and 1000 grit unmounted stones. BTW, every time I watch your videos I find I need to go in my shop and work on something, Today I made a leather axe mask for my True Temper Flint Edge and oiled all my other sheaths and masks. You always inspire.
  • Nice instruction, thanks. You clearly know your stuff. I just got a new Fiskar hatchet. Chopping old pallet wood for kindling in poor light I hit a tiny nail. Yep. So now I will need to remove the burs with a file and try to restore the edge. Your enthusiasm for restoring old axes make me want to search them out and try. You are right we all need a break. All work and no play...Jack got his hands on an axe after he typed that and it all went terribly wrong didn't it! Keep well!
  • @RonM.
    Just ordered myself one of the pucks. Thanks for showing me it, I'll definitely be using it in the future!
  • @terrychorn1503
    Thank you for sharing with us! After watching your videos I've changed the way I approach every day tasks. Your philosophy on living life is spot on!
