Painting isn't just for eye candy, if you paint inside and out correctly, everything gets caulked and sealed up, rot is properly dealt with so it doesn't spread further, and the building is protected from the elements.
Like many things people forgot what the original reasons for doing certain things certain ways was for…
"Mrs W" will have to do without tonight. Dude will be snuggling up to his new axe.
Many years ago I learned a lot from an old friend who was very handy with wood/hand tools. One thing was to soak axe and sledgehammer heads in antifreeze probably twice a year. It would keep the wood fibers swelled up in the head and doesn't dry as it will like water does. I've never had a loose handle since.
My dad and i are currently restoring an axe for my brother in law. Come to find out, we both watch your channel and have taken tips and instruction from you for this restoration. Thanks cody, you've brought a father and son together with a shared commonality not only in your channel but working with our hands on wood and steel. Side note, 3 weeks ago I was diagnosed with a second tyoe of cancer since the 1st of this year. This time a bit more serious and multiple surgeries & chemo will be required. Couldnt think of a better time to bond with my dad with a project we both have a passion for and to help distract from what's to come. Thanks cody & fam for all that you stand for and stand firm in. God bless your family.
I'd like to see Buckin' Billy Ray Smith put that axe through its paces.
Amen
That’s not traditional enough to get Buckin’s attention it might seem, lately he’s enchanted by those french handles...haha
Im not sure wether he would be amazed or discusted by the design. Maybe the buckin army needs to fund raise to get him one and see 🤣🤣
Bickin' Billy Ray can sure sling a heavy axe though.
Billy Ray would surely put it to the test lol
"Fall is in the air" As I look over at the outside thermometer reading 105*F
88 at my homestead (midwest ... no coast)
in VA it's a brick 102*f
Yeah .. same here in Oklahoma , but it sure won't be long before it changes
90°F in my backyard (shade) at 2:30PM in San Diego about 10 milse inland. That is hot for us.
I'm even somewhat local to Cody, supposed to be the hottest days of the year today and tomorrow, and I'm going huh!?
The best thing that helped with my shoulder break was PT. The Physical Therapist was really knowledgeable at how and when to push it. Helped prevent frozen shoulder etc. Good luck!!
Thumbs up on that as my son is an MSPT and has pulled me through some injuries. Can't beat having one in the family , also a great career path for young people to follow.
The only fall in the air here in Texas is the people falling over from a heat stroke!
Yup, same here in AZ. We set a record for consecutive days of at least 110° at 31 and that was a week or so ago. Pretty sure its still been at least 110 since. Fall starts in November here.
First of all. The content is never “lame.” Every video has a lesson, and I always learn something from every one. Thank you.
You're like me and a lot of other guys: hoping denial will cure it.
Yeah I messed my shoulder up 9 months ago and I suffered bad up until about a month ago. It just occurred to me how stubborn and stupid that was.
Yes.
Denial cures all! Ignorance is bliss and all, right? I suffer the same.
Hey it didn't kill me last time 🤣
Me: I'd never do that (facetious) Wife: -elbows me in ribs ; ) gaffaw rofl
I think you are the only person who gets me excited about axes. I love your outlook on things, and I am constantly looking for products that give me the FIZZ. Keep up the great videos!
The Conley Crew from Northeast Georgia. Praying for you shoulder. I have multiple leg injuries and they always seems to flair up when I am needed most. Thank God for others. The Body at work.
Any content from you is much appreciated Cody, no need to apologize. Thank you for all the lessons and advice, I am looking forward to the move, and hoping your arm heals up quickly.
As a physician, i'm thankful that you have decided to go to the doc. As a Christian i pray to the Good Lord that you may get well soon!
As a human, I'm grateful for ice-cream manufacturers; as a male, I'm grateful for teaspoons.
Interesting combination of oaths and covenants.... might I add some perspective? Matthew 5:34 “But I say to you, Do not take an oath at all, either by heaven, for it is the throne of God, 35 or by the earth, for it is his footstool, or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. 36 And do not take an oath by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black. 37 Let what you say be simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything more than this comes from evil.[James 1:8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways. Blessings to you and yours. All praises to our Lord and Savior! All glory to God!

Fred Latin Medic Romans 8:28 “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.”
Its a messed up shoulder. If God were real, he'd have better things to do like helping football players
I like that he doesn't just review but gives survival tips and fatherly advices
My experience with the "local natives" is that when they say it will be ripe in two weeks it'll actually be ripe in one week, and when you return in two weeks they will have picked all the berries..
Ha!
My thoughts exactly
A Man with true friends and a good woman is rich beyond belief. Your a rich man Cody.
Very true!
The only change I would Make to that statement Is and good Family. "Bare is the back, without a brother to guard it" Also honest and honorable children.
@@lharchmage6908 Very well said my friend "Bare is the back without a brother or sister to guard it" Children will mostly be what and how you guide and bring them up to be. Your words are kind and with care, a thing lacking in this time. Peace to you and yours. You have a friend. I feel richer knowing you.
I have one of these axes. It will split wood. It works better than other tools I’ve used. Helko makes several heads and a few handles that share that design, so you can switch heads or handles, or replace a damaged part.
Hi Cody, Helko axes are widely used here in Chile, but I don't think that model is currently for sale here. It is NOT a splitting maul, but I think it's a Heavy Vario 2000 Felling axe. The splitting maul is even chunkier than that one. Fun fact: that guard, is not part of the axe head itself. It gets sandwiched in place between the handle and the head using the two screws. (Personally I don't like the system). Supposedly, you can interchange the head to make it whatever you want, from a hatchet to a heavy splitter. Helko makes 5 different blades for the system. If you can get your hands on a Casco Axe, also made by Helko Werks, you'll get a REALLY RUSTIC, old fashioned german axe, that can last you a lifetime. The eyes in those things are HUGE, so you can fit a pretty heavy handle in them. Best regards!!
Very cool Design!! Glad your getting that shoulder looked at! Good luck with all the final pieces of the puzzle for your move!
Wrangler, you should have had Jack test the axe.
Nathan Tankersly fine young man he has there
good idea
I was thinking the same thing!
yeah whats the point of having a son if you are not taking advantage of free manual labor?
I was thinking the same thing! Lol
The 940 is back!
I thought I was the only one that noticed 😂
The Osborne
Thanks for heeding our calls to get an MRI. You’ll be super glad you did. As someone who has experienced major shoulder issues i find it much more pertinent to diagnose the issue than to treat first and then figure out if that’s working. For now don’t sleep on it and take it easy, but a sling isn’t necessary just yet. Thanks for putting out good content!
Thanks for bringing us along, Cody, all the best!
Wishing you a speedy recovery and glad to see your getting an MRI for your injury. Nice looking axe for sure thanks for all the recent content.
Thank you so much for reviewing the 🪓 I’ve been looking for a review awhile!! I’m actually receiving the same axe you reviewed tomorrow!!
my father used to soak his axs in Preston antifreeze and the heads never got loose. love your channel. keep up the good work.
I have had one of those Helco's for about eight years, it is excellent. I have many fine axes, including Gransfors bruks , but I regard this as my best splitting axe.
I'm about the same age as you good self Cody. About a year or so ago I did my shoulder/neck in to in to the point I had trouble sleeping and looking over my shoulder when changing lanes/ pulling out from side roads whilst driving was very painful, as well as my work as a landscaper. I went to a bed/pillow place and bought a new pillow that was much larger than my previous one and overnight it was a heap better. A year later and it is a distant memory. I hope you are able to work through this set-back and be able to get back to love doing so much.
Cody you're the reason I bought my 940, it's great to see you carrying it again.
As my Father-in-law says, "I'm not as young as I use to was." Shoulder will take longer to heal. Great video on the new splitter.
What?
Shoulders take longer to heal & sometimes you never regain the 100% usage. I have around 60% of documented usage left in my shoulder. Let them heal slowly! I used to take pride in how strong I was when I was younger. I loved playing baseball and was a pitcher, alright enjoyed woodworking, mechanic working & lifting weights. All of that is over with now!
as I used to be ?
@@web1187 Swedish inflection.
Used to was? 😂 Used to be man, used to be
Hey Cody, I think your content has been great! Nothin crazy but still educating and humble which are the main reasons why you’re probably my favorite content creator in the game today!
God bless you and your family as well. Good luck with your shoulder. Can't wait to see how the axe turns out.
Received one of these for Christmas last year. Was skeptical at first but after splitting over 8 cords of oak with it, I'm a believer. However, the through screws came loose, fatigued and had to be replaced and (even though I haven't broken it yet), a replacement handle is pretty expensive. The slightly curved handle and the head geometry deliver lots of energy transfer to the wood. Overall, a surprisingly excellent splitting maul!
Shoulder injuries heal pretty slowly, especially once you get into your 40s and beyond. Be prepared to rest it for longer than you expected. Best of luck.
Much, much longer...
Yep, depending on the damage, it could take up to two years to fully heal, and it might still remain scarred inside and not function properly.
That is a beautiful axe! Always been a fan of German quality myself (I'm a Dutchie) Wishing you a speedy recovery with your shoulder!
These are my favorite kind of videos from you!
Two of my buddies had shoulder problems similar to you. I took about 6 months to get back healthy. Good luck. And thanks for the informative video.
Content not lame at all! Really enjoying the talk about the new house, can’t wait to see it, and the “things my father and grandfather taught me!”
Cool design first one I've seen I feel like were all counting down the days at your beautiful home good luck with your shoulder hopefully you heal up quickly
Been there with the torn rotator. Good luck if surgery is required. Mine was done when arthroscopic was still new and not sufficient for the job. They ended up doing making a filet of mine but it came back just as strong for 30 years now. You and yours are in our prayers.
Great video. Love these axes. Really want to see how they stand up to the test of time.
My shoulder is stuffed, next breath, lets have a look at this axe which I'll have to swing! Lol
Can’t say I didn’t miss the old axe videos. Have been looking at these for awhile
I hope your better soon!! I tore my shoulder years ago, while throwing a softball from the outfield in a game. I never went in for it, & never regained full use of it. I kinda forget about it until I wake up with my arm over my head, then it’s an oh no moment of extreme pain.
I had surgery on my rt. shoulder and went to play catch with my granddaughter after about 4 months. BIG mistake. I thought my arm fell off. It took about a year to heal.
Our fall temp today is 89° in the Great Lakes State. That axe head looks like 3 separate pieces. Thanks Cody for sharing it.
Hey Cody, looking forward to new uploads from the new property! love your work and love the Metric system! haha cheers from a fellow Firefighter from Australia!
Hey Cody! looking forward to the new property
Thanks for the video Cody! Good luck with the move 👍
I miss the old axe review days but I cant complain about the positive direction the channel is heading.Keep it up and God bless
Keeping you guys in our prayers. Hope you get the shoulder sorted out. God bless.
loved your content for about 3 years keep it up
I ordered one 8 years ago. Fell one 16" persimmon tree for a real test, and really enjoyed it. The laquer coat and bulk of the handle were my only qualms, we know those are easily fixed. Some vagrant lifted it off my side porch in the middle of the night... *Course they make multiple sizes, I had the 28" equivalent as they are metric
I’m gonna miss the background scenery when Wrangler moves. :(
He is staying in the same area and he’s said all of the views are actually better. He said the new place even has a better view of “Mt. Fuji”.
Yesss!!! The best type of Wranglerstar video!!!!
I have had two rotator cuff surgeries. Be careful & don't over do it! Workers comp doctors had me going to physical therapy. They were pushing me real hard, beyond what I was comfortable with. They kept telling me it (the pain) was normal & that is why it turned 2 surgeries instead of one. Let your body speak to you!
Glad to see the Benchmade 940 back in action 🎬.
Thank you for the great contribution, to all of us.
I’m glad you are starting to do more videos like this!
Finally an interesting video that isn't even political. Hard to find these days.
I miss his old content
Exactly, his new drama, political BS is getting old fast.
Some people want to keep their heads in the sand and pretend that the values and traditions that made this country the world’s powerhouse of freedom and posterity aren’t hanging in the balance this November election. I respect him for taking a public stand. We need more men like him.... not less.
I’m pleased to hear that you are having a MRI on your shoulder. I had a fall 11 weeks ago, and had to have surgery, as I broke my humerus bone. I have a plate, 6 screws and a bone graft...ugggghhh. I had to wear a sling for 6 weeks and am now having physio and drove yesterday for the first time. I sincerely hope your injury is not as bad as mine, with everything you have coming up soon. 🙏🙏🙏
Have been using the helko werk splitting axe for over a year now. It is a superior splitter!! A joy to use!
Gotta love this channel. Good content, and great stories. :)
My favorite splitting maul, all steel monster wedge. Blast through anything
God Bless you and yours! Hope to see that ax in your future videos
Still hot in TN. Definitely colder year than normal but we aint thinking about a fire yet, maybe outside at night or morning. But thatd be to dry it out more than warm it up. Wish it was fall. Thanks for the videos.
- "I just can't use [my shoulder], it might be the rotator cuff, I should really have it slinged. Anyway, let's test out this axe."
This is a very interesting axe... Thank you for the presentation...
those are great axes, True Gorge stoves & Spas is a dealer in Hood River and they have quite an assortment. I personally have two of them and live them.
your in my prayers cody. Hope your arm gets better before the winter.
My wife and I are looking forward to your videos can't wait to see the new Homestead. Thank you so much for the contact. God-bless you
AWESOME Ax Cody, as always great hearing from ya, now on to your 5:30 pm livestream! :D
I missed these axe videos
Please please please do physics therapy for your shoulder if it’s bad I’m currently recovering from an injury, all I have to say is that surgery for shoulders quite often are botched, elastic bands are great for building tendon and muscle functionality. With peace and love.
Love the videos i watch them everyday after work im only 25 and im a painter for a living im in a very depressing time in my life and ur video literally make my day and forgrt whatever im going through man keep up the good work and hope u feel better god bless u and ur family
I enjoy your tool reviews. It’s been awhile since you have done one.
I would very much like to see you put that axe to the test. I was considering purchasing that same axe and the smaller felling axe from the same line they have. Very curious to see if that crazy design will hold up to some good work. Hope everything gets better with your shoulder. Long time fan here, never really commented on a video but i always leave a like. Keep up the content I love it.
I tore my labrum in college in a rock climbing accident....not a fun time. 6 months to light usage, almost a year to full recovery. Praying for a speedy recovery!
Never ceases to amaze me as I'm sitting in a 108 degree August day with fall at least 3 months away that you're "feeling fall"... And every time there's cutting, my heart wants to see that 940. 😃
Looks like a good Axe, hope you guys are well. God Bless You Guys.
Since it's been 8 months and hopefully your shoulder has healed fully. This would be a neat axe to revisit to see it chop and perform. Also, we could get to see how tight that axe head stays after prolonged use (if you've been using it). God Bless you and your family.
Liam...The content in your video's never laim. Because the stuff you put out is just amazing. Thank you for sharing.
Got so happy to see a new axe video!
This is the type of content I love to see!
Thanks to one of your original videos, I know own a small axe. I use it for kindling wood for the wood burner. Sat there with the father in law and just kindled for a hour.
Heres a tip for u if your axe handle gets loose during the summer it is because the wood drys out there for it srinks if u soak it with water for a week it will tighten up again thats what I do and it works. Great video by the way.
Nice axe, I hope it works as good as it looks. It would be nice to see an unusual design workout.
Definitely get that shoulder checked. Popped mine out in 2003 during selection for the army. Popped it back in and passed selection... 2020 with two operations behind me and its still not right.
One thing I’ve done to an axe handle I didn’t exactly trust to sit well is to melt hot glue into its edges. Hot glue melts at about a hundred degrees Celsius, which isn’t enough to destroy the metal or the wood. So you can have some hot glue on the edges, then use a hot air gun to melt it further into the edge. And if you want it loose, you can just melt it again. I haven’t used the axe a lot, so no guarantees, but it seems to hold up well so far.
Glad to hear you have an mri booked, and hope you have a speedy recovery!
Ive owned a couple of the Helko Werk Vario 2000 series axes for a few years now and can say they are amazing! I have the heavy splitter and have put it threw the gauntlet many a times. All I do is split by hand and it has stood up to some nasty stuff! The head will loosen over time but a few cranks with the Allen wrench and it’s locked right back up no big deal. My only complaint is last year I did end up snapping one of the Allen screws off which was upsetting but after a few years of heavy abuse I guess I can’t complain. Customer service was fast and kind I had the replacement bolts in a few days time. I would suggest to grab a few extras ahead of time if you plan to use it has your main splitter to avoid down time but other than that excellent axe with a unique and pleasantly curved handle that pops large rounds with ease👍 When your back up and running please do a review. I would like to see your qualified take on it!!
crispy fresh axe content. did not disappoint.
Beautiful axe, very different. I had lots of pain in my shoulder for a while. Had what is called frozen shoulder and only required lots of stretching for several months.
I love our Council belt axe and the Council Hudson axe. As far as a splitting maul I break the handles so much since I'm lazy and leave it out on the wood pile I just use any maul at the nearest ACE or Home Depot as long as its says USA. Good luck with the shoulder.
back with the beanchmade 940 i see ;) hope your sholder gets better soon glad to here your getting it looked at
"The One" has made it back into your pockets I see :-) same thing with my 940.
Looks like the 940 is back in the game!!! Love mine, great recommendation!
Same down here in the South. Instead of cutting the grass every 5 days, we are now cutting every 10 days.
Really enjoyed today's brace of stories. So refreshing to have earnest wholesome content. 🇺🇸🦅❤️
Prayers for the shoulder. Immobilize it as much as possible until the doctors look at it. God bless!
