Old Rusty Handmade Axe Restoration
Hello folks! Today I want to show you my new restoration project. This old rusty axe I was found at flea market and bought few months ago. The shape of axe, head is not standard. It's handmade axe, but for what I don't know. The axe is heavy and may be its bone chopper or something else. In any cases I should restore it!
Main points of restoration process:
I removed old handle from axe and start to used electrolysis. Then I cleaned the axe via water and cleaning agent. I used files to correct the axe shape. To removed dark color from ax I used iron brushes and finally to make one similar surface I used iron chloride. Further I started to made handle from ash tree. I used brass rivets and finally two component paint and linseed oil for impregnation. Also, I made sheath for axe from wood. It's light and useful scabbard. I hope you will enjoy this restoration video.
Sincerely, Alex. Thanks for attention!
Good luck and health to everyone! With best wishes, Alex!
