The wrap technique you use is called a "whip wrap". It is also used when wrapping an archery bow string, or to finish the end of a rope to prevent fraying. I am sure you know this, but some of your viewers may not.

Rather than using seal all, twist/snug the whipping up as tight as possible at the bottom, then fully saturate ALL of the paracord top to bottom with a thin CA glue - it chemically converts/melts the sheathing and individual nylon strength cords inside the paracord to a single piece of perfectly formed and EXTREMELY durable armor with outstanding impact and abrasion resistance. An added benefit is that BLO can be applied to both the handle and whipping after the fact to further re-enforce and condition both the wood and wrap. I use this trick to make bulletproof overstrike collars for splitting axes and mauls. It works a treat, especially with some 5 to 7 millimeter sheet rubber and a wrap or two of hockey grip tape underneath.

Buckin good morning. I use the same type of wrap on handles. I use Starbrite super glue, thin, to secure the wrap. It is like water and flows into the threads, there is no need to loosen the threads it will go straight through to the wood. Oh and don't grab it with your hands before it sets. I was splitting wood for two days before it let of of my hand 😉😉

I will wrap it with para cord when I get a chance. I usually cut a piece of thick leather and lace it on the handle with leather to protect against over strikes.

Alternately, rather than using seal all, twist/snug the whipping up as tight as possible at the bottom then fully saturate all of the paracord top to bottom with a thin CA glue - it chemically converts/melts the sheathing and individual nylon strength cords inside the sheathing to a single piece of perfectly formed and EXTREMELY durable armor with outstanding impact and abrasion resistance. As an added benefit, BLO can be applied to both the handle and whipping after the fact to further re-enforce and condition both wood and wrap. I use this trick to make bulletproof overstrike collars for splitting axes and mauls.

Great video buckin keep em coming buddy
I saw Rita's work it's worth a lot more. She is so talented. Like her parents. And Sherry
Love this. Another great video, with another great message. Thank you Billy Ray. You're entertaining, informative and a force for good. I'm going to try wrapping my Gransfors with leather cord just to give it a little grip for carving. I'll use the same method and see how I get on. Best wishes from the UK!
Please let us know how that goes. I was thinking about doing the same thing with my Gransfors Bruk axe
Shouldn't he have the axe head cover on while he is wrapping the paracord? Seems like his hands and wrists are exposed to the axe blade
Wrapparoni SF style. LoL 🤣🤣🤣 Man, that's so funny. Awesome vid, thanks!!
Thanks for the gift of info,. “Wrapping a axe handle”. Love what ya do, Buckin.
I just tried it on my new handle and it looks nice and feels so nice on the hand that I also put it on the bottom of the handle.
Beautiful work, genius, thanks for sharing this info
Little Buckin is the quality control manager 🕵️♂️
Hey bucking keep it up you fantastic man you are the man the myth the legend
I may need to try this one out. Thanks Buckin’ 🙏🏻 you the man
i like it as it is simple
@@BuckinBillyRaySmith Agreed. Simple is good!
Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Man, you are amazing!
Great guy🤘🏻 Greedings from Germany! Your Videos make me feel good!
great vid buckin'!! that seal all is great stuff!! can't tell you how many gas tank leaks i've fixed with it! now i have another thing to do with it!!
I agree on the Boys axe. I use myTT 2.25# boys axe as my wedge pounder and general woods axe when I am felling trees, bucking and limbing. It has a 28 inch does leg hickory handle in it. I will wrap it with para cord when I get a chance. I usually cut a piece of thick leather and lace it on the handle with leather to protect against over strikes.
Wrap-Aroni the cedar bc treat!! Love it! Looks great billy!
ha ha
How’s the face buckin? Couple years ago I got worked over by my dentist. The only thing I found that helped was extra strength Tylenol arthritis. I’m not one to take anything but tooth plain ruins anything enjoyable. They really did help. I was eating Advil like skittles with no relief.
Good! !!!!! Morning! !!!!!😆 125 am here. Will watch tomorrow a little 😴😴😴😴😴😴😉😉😉
Man buckin you are the best all around guy that keeps it funny and uplifts people through your videos I watch you every morning before I go out to work (tree removal) and I have learned so much from ur videos let me tell yeah friend!!!! Is there a way I could send you a old axe my dad made? He has Parkinson's now and splitting wood was my first job I ever did for him and getting him axe like this would absolutely bless him
Love axes and love your channel! Your passion for axes makes me appreciate my own that much more! Woke up a bit ago from a nightmare where I'm hacking the most muscularly toned mountain lion I've ever seen thats mauling a boy to death with my trusty axe and getting swaths of meat torn from my arm in the process then wake up, drink some coffee and watch you love on axes. Excellent start to a day. Have a feeling I ought to have my axe in hand on my hike in a couple hours.
hi. its looking good that wrapping on the ax.
hi buckin,i hope your jaw is feeling bit better, brother! nice wrap. i love that black and wihte shirt! you are a great guy! i wish you and your family a great day! #spiritfire

Welcome! Glad you are enjoying the Buckin Billy Ray experience! Be Kind Friend!!! 💚🌲💚🌲💚🌲
"The san Fransisco tree" I'm dead, gonna have to start using that one
Man that's awesome I wish I had one like that!!
In scouts we called that whipping.
yip
You are a real life super hero!
ha ha..... love .....
Great to see ya brother! I have been wrapping with para cord for some time now. I do the same process, but instead of glue, I burn the cord off to cut it then use the heat to bond the wrap all the way up. Your glue is an easier process.
kool .. i have axes a year old , heavy use standin up and buckin' still
@@BuckinBillyRaySmith Following your advise, I have put the longer bar and chain on several of my saws. Stand up and buck is the way. Love your channel
You gave me a good idea, to refine my axe. I have several plumb axes. I want to wrap the handle on my plumb youth (boys) ave. By doing the wrap, it will protect the handle in its weakest area, and add a custom decorative look. Thanks.
i just tried this on an old wood handled chisel and it came out great.
Wow thank you for the information...
Wrap looks real good..no knots, nice trick
Alternately, rather than using seal all, twist/snug the whipping up as tight as possible at the bottom then fully saturate all of the paracord top to bottom with a thin CA glue - it chemically converts/melts the sheathing and individual nylon strength cords inside the sheathing to a single piece of perfectly formed and EXTREMELY durable armor with outstanding impact and abrasion resistance. As an added benefit, BLO can be applied to both the handle and whipping after the fact to further re-enforce and condition both wood and wrap. I use this trick to make bulletproof overstrike collars for splitting axes and mauls. It works a treat, especially with some 5 to 7 millimeter sheet rubber and a wrap or two of hockey grip tape underneath to reduce impact transfer between whipping and handle.
Howdy Buckin thank you for sharing I was wondering on how to do that I would like to do it to my axe.
Cool trick! How do you oil the handle with this permanent wrap? Or do you remove it every say a year? PS: Or do you make a linseed oil coat over the wrap?
