In this video me and my friend Torbjörn make an axe by using top and bottom fuller tools that we made together back in April.
Thank you for watching!

Two masters at work! Couldn't ask for a better video! Great work👍
What a star studded crew. The axe is wonder. I really like the treatment of the handle. Torbjorn's arrival was terrific.
My favorite part of blacksmithing is working with a friend. Having a striker and learning how to communicate what and how to do. Its such a fun and giving experience.
Truly delightful to watch the synergy between people forging together! I started carpentry with hand tools a few years ago. I never expected to do so much work with axe/hatchet: shaping stool/bench legs, roughing out all sorts of things, splitting wide boards, etc. Even hewing short logs to make benches. My tool is too soft to hold an edge for long and too thick to chop with little effort. I was just thinking how nice it'd be to invest in a quality tool like this one when you said you'd be giving it away. I hope it goes to someone who will get a lifetime of delightful use from it!
It always a treat to see both of you working together!
1) I am jealous you get to be friend with Torbjorn. 2) I really respect that you filed the axe profile when you had a huge belt grinder (I would have filed it too) and 3) I think you’re extremely brave to buff an edge with an angle grinder.
It never ceases to amaze me how blacksmiths turn lumps of metal into the most useful and versatile tools. I love watching such videos.
No job I know of is harder with two people. Thanks for showing us your struggles. Makes me feel better about struggling while trying to accomplish something by myself.
Very nice cooperation. Thorbjorn's arrival was super arranged. More videos like this.👍
I really appreciate the craftsmanship you both share, it’s an ancient art but it’s not antiquated!
It is great watching two talented craftsmen working together. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Beautiful work as always! You both highlight the artistry of axe forging very well.
Torbjorn to the rescue! This is an awesome collaboration! I love how he zoomed over! Great looking axe! Wonderful video Nils ❤🔥🪓
My good friend, Michael, was a remarkable forger. I would have shared this with him; but, sadly, he has passed. Thank you both. 🙂
Just recently found your channel after researching some axes I found metal detecting. Started with restoring others’ work and now finding the inspiration from your videos to slowly step into the forging world. Thanks for the great content and keeping the craftsmanship alive! In a world of mass production, it’s extremely refreshing to see you and others do what you do.
I loved watching your process! I'm an amateur blacksmith and can appreciate the skill and effort involved. I especially enjoyed watching the 2 of you work together. Thank you!
Great work for the both of you! Love to see my two fav blacksmiths in youtube working together again
Unfortunatly Nick never answered the call to receive the axe, so I had to pick another winner: simon myers If I dont hear from him/her I will pick another winner in 7 days The giveaway will end 1st September. I will then ask the winner here in the comment section to contact me via email. The winner will be selected randomly! Good luck :) /Nils
Two of my favourite blacksmiths forging an beautiful axe together... woud really like to own this axe. I hope I am the lucky one! I am already waiting for your next videos 😊
Sign me up for the axe. Thanks for the video.
Great video! ive been making small knives and decorative pieces for a while but want to break into axe forging. How well does 1045 hold up durability wise over time? I'd imagine using somethin low carbon for the head and then forge welding 1080 or 1095 for the blade would be longer lasting no?
gimme gimme!
Wonderful piece for sure. Throw my name in the hat please sir.
Got my 18yo son at up with a forge n anvil. We have made our own hammers, tongs, and some hardy tools. It's something fun and useful we can learn to do together! Ty for your videos! They give us tips, and techniques if we watch carefully.
It is always great to see the two of you working together. Looks like y'all had fun on this one! Cheers!
I generally work alone, but you've inspired me to find a blacksmith friend with whom I can work and laugh together. Great video.
Using tools to make tools, well done to you both. Beautiful piece, who ever receives that will hopefully utilize it for its intended purpose.
Amazing! The collab we never knew we needed 😍 Gorgeous axe, superb craftsmanship 👏👏👏
Great to watch two truly talented craftsmen work together to make something both beautiful and functional.
I wish I had such friends that come so quick when I call them
As do I. But I'm the friend they all call. 🤷🏻♀️

I loved the comradery and teamwork from the two of you. Here's to more collaborations!
I am still learning a lot of the basics, I am a toolmaker by trade. Enjoy making and fixing things. You and Thorbjorn are respected forge experts by my standards. I enjoy craftsmanship that make it seem so easy. Thank you very much.
Always a treat to see this sort of collaboration!
Beautifully done! I have a Tormek grinder also, I put a 10 CBN wheel on it works great, no more dressing the wheel. Thanks for sharing!
I have a huge appreciation for medal working/forging. Your skills and craftsmanship is clearly evident. I truely enjoy watching a Master at work. Well done Sir 👏 👍
Great collaboration from two amazing smiths! Cheers from the great state of Texas.

Great watching both of you work, and a stunning axe as the result. Congrats on a job well done.
This is beautiful. Thank you for sharing 😊
I enjoyed watching you and your friend making your carpenter's ax from scratch. What a talent.
I really enjoy watching you two working together!😀 You two are my inspirations to start metalworking and forging as a hobby and to start to explore new crafts. I follow your channel almost from the beginnings, I think this beginner video series has a great potential in it! I really hope to see more collaboration videos with you two!😊 All the best and take care! Tack så mycket!🙂
Love seeing you two work together. You both know what your doing and you guys always have a laugh. Keep the vids Nils 😁
Better plot than most adult movies.... awesome axe, it shows two highly skilled craftsmen worked on it.
Great job, Master! And Thornbjorn’s participation in the work is a separate amazingly positive aspect of the work! Thank you!👍👍👍
Awesome video, great watching you two work together!
Beautiful piece of work. Amazing. Thank you. 🙂
Very nice hand axe. I’ve been admiring Torbjorn’s work for a number of years. This is the first time I’ve seen Nils Ogren’s work. Will definitely check him out.
Awesome video and really shows the different forging steps. Definitely a fun watch!
your video came up as a suggestion, and I had to watch as my Grandfather was a blacksmith, as well as a builder, carpenter and farmer, he was a true pioneer here in Australia. loved watching your work, and seeing the finished product.
It was very interesting to see the complete process, thank you guys!
Loved the video. It’s amazing to see the talent the two of you have. I can’t wait to see the next video. Thanks
that is a beautiful axe, and I loved the way you two worked together!
Love to see you two work together in a perfect striker team. Great video with great craftmanship!
Beautiful workmanship. Thank you for the video.
nothing like watching phenomenal craftsmen create a wok of functional art.
Really cool how you and torbjorn came to together to make that beautiful axe, can’t wait for the next tutorial video comes out because I’ve been bladesmithing for a couple months and can’t wait to make my first axe
It was nice to see how two people work with such joy together to help one another. I am forging since January this year and I dont have people in my peer who share my hobby.
Excellent video, thank you for taking the time to share your skills.
Great to see you two having fun in the forge. That's one nice axe.
loved the acting, the driving, the dancing and ofcourse the forging process. Like how the two of you work together and the axe came out stunning, great job!
It is inspiring and so satisfying to see Masters of their craft at work.
What a lovely axe, and always a great day when you can get Nils and Torbjörn in a video together.
That is an amazing axe and I'm glad I stumbled across your channel, I'll definitely be watching more of your videos!
I truly enjoyed watching the forging of such a nice tool. I have not tried anything this in-depth yet. But I have forged a few knives from old springs. This video has inspired me to go make some more. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks you for sharing your skills and putting your knowledge out there for the world to enjoy. I appreciate your channel very much.
That's an awesome axe! Love the way you are hand forging it! ❤
Such a cool piece. The forging techniques are on point!
La complicité dans votre travail est vraiment agréable à voir, et le rendu de la hache est magnifique. Continuez à nous montrer de belles choses. Hâte de voir votre prochaine collaboration!
Your friend has great taste in cars. I love hand tools. Great steel and beautiful timber make me feel linked to everything that is human.
It is good to see two smiths working together. I liked seeing the concert of the smith and striker working together. Keep up the good work.
Ever since i got my hands on a real Gränsfors Bruk axe i have been tempted to get an carpenters axe but never got around to it. Really appreciate your and Torbjörns work!
Such an amazing tool! It is beautiful. The winner will be very lucky to own it!
That is some fine craftsmanship. I cannot believe that your videos have never popped up in my feed before. You have earned yourself a new subscriber.
You two seem to be having a lot of fun together. Great piece of work.
Great collaboration by my two favorite blacksmith.
Brilliant forging and brilliant video well done guys. Looks amazing!!!!
I completely understand using the modern technologies like the power hammer for your day-to-day production, but I absolutely love when your videos are 100% done by hand. Amazing work! Something I aspire to!
Beautiful piece. Great work!
