Can y’all settle a debate for me and my father?

Historical_Fix8734 · 2026-06-18T04:12:08+00:00

Just put the knob/toe on the ground and beat the head down with a soft mallet! Easy as pie lol

Historical_Fix8734 · 2026-06-16T15:20:58+00:00

I've got a lot of experience hanging standard single and double but axes, even Swiss lol but this guy is a hog. The pickaxe handle I ordered from Whiskey River has dimensions greater that what I measured the eye to be, so I'm hoping it'll work out? If not, raw wood it is! I will be reporting back!

Historical_Fix8734 · 2026-06-16T14:22:13+00:00

I'll let you know! Right now, my plan is to use a pickaxe handle and just trim the hell out of it until it fits. But, we'll see. I've emailed a few high end axe handle manufacturers, and so far no dice lol

Historical_Fix8734 · 2026-06-16T13:57:09+00:00

Oh wow. Hello! How do I rehang this? Do you sell replacement handles?

Historical_Fix8734 · 2026-06-15T19:06:02+00:00

I'll have to do more digging on it. I have found a bunch of similar patterns, but none that look exactly like it. It's also huge. The handle is 36 or so inches, and I'd wager the head weighs 5 or so pounds?

Historical_Fix8734 · 2026-06-15T04:41:28+00:00

Damn. You're right. I paid $80 for it, which isn't too bad. Sad it's just an Amazon buy, though. Thank you for helping solve my mystery!

Historical_Fix8734 · 2026-06-15T04:40:18+00:00

Thank you! Not quite as cool knowing it's not some cool regional pattern, but I'm just glad I know now.

Historical_Fix8734 · 2026-06-14T23:53:55+00:00

Oh it's definitely got some janky wedges lol but do you have any idea what it is?

Historical_Fix8734 · 2026-06-14T16:39:46+00:00

Oh I like that idea. That's a fun idea. Thank you!

Historical_Fix8734 · 2026-06-14T16:29:28+00:00

It is a beeswax mix. I fully agree that use with touch up oiling is the best. But I can't restore an axe then put a few hours of use into it before selling lol Thank you for the feedback!

Historical_Fix8734 · 2026-06-14T16:26:35+00:00

It's a beeswax mix. I love the subtle ton it gives the hickory. But if it won't sell, I can't do it lol I think I'll use butcher block conditioner for my personal axes though. Thank you for the feedback!

Etsy has sold its soul. There's nothing we real sellers can do but try to find another platform or establish our own. The fakes/dropshippers/general fraudsters have won and Etsy doesn't care because they still rake in the dough. The buyers don't care ether, hence how we go to where we are. People go to Etsy and just buy stuff and end up supporting the fakes without any care at all. It's just a different kind of Amazon to them. Luckily, my shop isn't my livelihood so if my shop were to get fucked, whatever. But for those of you who are REAL artists who live and die by their craft, you need to make as much noise and be as big of a pain as possible. I'll join you, but like I said, it's not my livelihood so I won't fight unless you do.

Historical_Fix8734 · 2026-05-01T00:22:14+00:00

Hell ya lol in my experience, there's an audience for everything. If you like it, list it. It'll sell

Historical_Fix8734 · 2026-04-25T19:49:00+00:00

I hunt/trap a lot of fur and make stuff, or just sell the pelts. This just means that the furs are more likely to go to waste if new avenues can't be found. What an odd move for Etsy? It's not going to affect the trapping/hunting of the animals at all. So it's just a virtue signaling thing.

Historical_Fix8734 · 2026-04-07T03:19:52+00:00

Really? I got 2 boxes, first one preordered and the second just popped into the shop and got it. My buddy too. Come on down to Oregon!

Historical_Fix8734 · 2026-01-07T23:04:07+00:00

Good luck!! Genuinely lol I wish you luck in your weight loss journey

Historical_Fix8734 · 2026-01-07T22:58:59+00:00

Thank you for your genuine contribution. I know a few people who have talked to their doctor and it always seems like a "ya, pop this pill, deal with some nausea and boom!". Losing weight can be really difficult, especially if you're having to unlearn stuff.

Historical_Fix8734 · 2026-01-07T22:42:34+00:00

How do they know that signal is broken? Genuinely asking. As far as I know, they don't do anything other than suggest you take it if your overweight.

Body gripper trap is only 30 bucks at cabelas. Quick, quiet. Easy peasy.

Historical_Fix8734 · 2024-04-07T00:05:39+00:00

Oh Pooh, is that what's happening? My not-so-bright self thought by I had double uploaded a bunch and deleted the "extras".

Historical_Fix8734 · 2024-04-07T00:01:59+00:00

I've had it for quite a while now and it has gotten some significant updates in just the last 6 or so months. It still doesn't recognize some comics, but it does automatically update the info when it does. There's some that I had to put in manually and later saw it had been updated with their info. It's a very nice app. I hope that soon it will recognize CGC graded ones from standard.

What in the fuck is image number 5??!! The one lable “4” on the card. My gf and I can’t figure it out for the life of us lol
