How to Sharpen a Hatchet or Axe to a Scary Sharp Edge!

In this video I show a way to sharpen my axes. It becomes scary sharp and can shave hair off your arm no problem.

This hatchet I am sharpening is a plumb hatchet made in the USA. It has a lovely hickory handle and boiled linseed oil finish.

I used sandpaper to sharpen the axe/hatchet as I thought it would be helpful to people who don't have any appropriate sharpening stones. This make it easy to get into.

If you are inexperienced in axe sharpening or a complete beginner this draw filing type method can really help get more consistent results without using a jig as you have more control.

Hope this helps feel free to ask any questions and I hope you enjoyed.
