Drawknife from an old axe

In this video, I ll show you how to breathe new life into an old piece of metal by making a useful tool from a broken and worn ax. A drawknife is a traditional hand tool which shapes wood by removing shavings. It is a slightly curved blade with handles on both ends and its pulled or drawn to the user, which is why its called a drawknife. A drawknife is an outstanding tool for carving, debarking, and shaping wood. For me it is a longawaited and now irreplaceable tool for making ax handles.
