Antique Firefighter Axe VICTORIA Restoration ( ASMR)
In this video I m going to restore an antique firefighter axe. I ve always wanted to restore an axe since the beginning of my channel, but I ve never found a cool looking one. But then, all of a sudden I came across this beautifully designed firefighter axe and knew immediately that this will be the one. I ve found it at my friendsplace, he took it home from the steel waste and sold it to me for 20. I really love the design of those firefighter axes with the two keys that secure the axe head. To secure the keys there s always a pin, rivet going through the handle. This axe was very special, because the manufacturer really payed attention to grind the rivets flush and let them completely dissappeared. Top quality I d say. As always, the axe head is also secured with a regular wedge in the handle. The axe head had really deep holes in it. I guess it was once used as a hammer. Those holes were so deep that I would ve lost way too much material in thickness if I d grind
