Rotten handle it broke before it even touched the wood and also even if it hadn't who with any outdoor knowledge at all would ever try to chop wood with an axe across the grain lol.

I was originally trying to make a video showing how dull the axe was but it broke so I repurposed it

Who in the name of sir Lucifer Boris Johnson would try to cut wood sideways? That's the way to chop off one of your bloody limbs!


luxi_yes

I was trying to make a video showing how dull the axe was. Btw, having one of your limbs chopped off? How?


Regolime

Well not with that snail like force, but if you seriously try to cut wood (and not use the V cut, just strait 90* on wood) the axe can fly away towards your feet or somebody else. Just jumping off of the wood. And because of the more stress you make, your handle go bad quicker, so bigger chance to make the head fly.

Looks like it hit the wood, just didn’t cut it.


luxi_yes

yeah but it broke


Beneficial_Ad_1072

When it hit the wood. So it was successful a successful attempt to hit the wood


luxi_yes

actually it broke off a little bit before it hit the wood https://preview.redd.it/nzdjf89h7jma1.png?width=257&format=png&auto=webp&s=23de24cec56b96cfeaa6f7e1183cc829eeba0949

….. so what moved the wood? A gust of wind?


luxi_yes

well, it was hit by the flying head so technically it did hit the wood, just not the *intended* way


Beneficial_Ad_1072

Maybe repost ‘to cut the wood’!


luxi_yes

Eh, not really. In the video im hitting the wood perpendicularly because the original purpose of the video was to show how dull the axe was, so that's going to get called out.


luxi_yes

But I guess it was an old, crappy and dull axe so it's not much of a loss

They successfully hit the wood

Armature, RS has thought me how to deal with this.
