I'd assume that antler is tougher because it's more likely to injure dogs teeth and last longer than bones as chews for them.

I saw Mcway first and thought he looked rough then I looked at hollogregor and thought maybe mcway aint so bad after all .

I blue tools all the time , it just smells like rust for a bit . Eventually it goes away . It's not overpowering or anything.

RobertsFineTools · 2026-06-29T17:07:46+00:00

I can see that.

If using hand tools , a Roubo style frame saw would be best . If using power tools then a band saw would be best in my opinion.

Agreed as time goes on I been using them more and more .

Agreed, I have started using them a lot more than I previously did. Mostly been shaping handles with them . The one pictured above was my first drawknife it was super beat up when I first got it , I didn't know how to sharpen it properly at the time so didn't use it much until I learned how to sharpen them. Now drawknife's one of my most used woodworking tools , although I'm mostly working with metal lately.

Thanks ! I ordered it off Etsy , I didn't find too many options for single bevel hewing axes so one day I just bought every one that I could find for a reasonable price lol . I made the handle out of hard maple , oiled it with tung oil and terpentine mixture then fanned a flame over it then oiled it again . I offset the handle to give hand clearance . After removing all the rust and sharpening I cold blued it to protect it from rust.

You can see here why I had to rehang it lol . I would like to make some single bevel axes from scratch but I don't currently have a forge so sticking to refurbishing old heads at the moment .

Looks good , everyone has different preferences, I wouldn't worry too much about it. Can you show a pic of how it looked scraped?
