$12 Rusty Hatchet Restored into Something Amazing

In this video I restored an old and rusty hatchet and I made some custom to it, called "snake skin". The outcome is priceless , enjoy the video !!

About restoration video :
I bought this hatchet in order to restore it and the price was 10 euro/12$. The time of restoration was three weeks for physical work , filming and editing and the total price for this restoration project was around $60.

About restoration project:
I start the restoration by removing the old handle then I sandblasted the proper hatchet. After sandblasting I saw that was too many pits on the metal and I decided to make a small custom because a complete polishing would have meant losing a lot of material. After I restored the metal I start doing a new handle for the hatchet. I worked to many hours on this restoration videos but the outcome was priceless.
I like very much this restoration project and I hope also you have the same opinion.

I was almost not going to watch this video, because it’s another axe. There’s only so many I can handle. I’m glad I did watch this though. That was outstanding work mate. I especially loved the snakeskin look. 👍🇦🇺

I'm not sure if I'm more surprised by how great the finished product looked, or by the fact that someone had the balls to charge $12 for the pre-restoration axe.

Step 1: buy old 12 dollar axe
Step 2: buy 20k worth of tools
Step 3: restore for free

This is the first time I've ever seen that kind of "snakeskin" finish look even decent, and it's gorgeous!

Finally someone who doesn't just polishes everything shiny and calls it a day.

This video focused me and kept my interest the entire time. The axe was beautiful. Even more beautiful was the skill and care which produced it. I would love to be able to do something similar… amazing.

It's so clean, looks brand new, never used. The hatchet came out nice too!

Nice job!

I spend a lot of time in the bush here in Oz. There are old tools from prospectors all over the place, particularly in the gold fields. Some of them have been lying in the dust and mud since 1898, around the time of the first gold rushes, sometimes even earlier. Old picks, mattocks, pick-axes, hatchets and axes. Shovels are thinner and usually rusted and worn out and pretty useless. With the heavier metal tools, I actually like them as unrestored as I can keep them, excepting repairing edges, heads and points.

The absolute best de-rusting is at an atomic level, by electrolysis. It only takes away the rust and no clean metal is ground or polished away. They seem to have acquired an exceptional hardness from years of baking in ground temperatures up to 50C in summers; either that or they were good steel to begin with.

I get them back to a nice red-brown patina with all the inherited pits by electrolysis, and without sanding and grinding except for points and edges, which I grind by hand. Then a spot of oil and a new handle and they are done and are scattered all over the house as ornaments which have a practical use as well as talking points.

I honestly wasn’t in the best mood and that genuinely made me smile. Thank you for the reminder😁

I would suggest open your online store where people can buy the antique articles from you.
