My 3 Hatchets
on: March 31, 2015, 12:28:49 AM
Not a lot of wood processing for me but I do have a few hatchets.  I got them all pretty banged up with the exception of the carpenters hatchet with no name.  I dont know anything about the other 2 other than they are pretty nice little camp tools. 
The Super Banko is my favorite and could still use some edge refinement but its sharp and does what I need.  The Vaughan is a nice one and I recently put on the handle.  Hickory is what I believe it is and not that its got a protective finish on it I like it even more. 

I used 2 coats of linseed oil for now and may apply more at a later time.  I'm happy with my results and they and they are ready for camping.

Thanks guys  :salute:

I had been waiting to do this but I had a few too many projects in front of them.  I love the smell of Boiled Linseed Oil in the morning.

The wood does look much much better for sure.  I really should have posted pictures of the handles before sanding.  I tend to get wrapped up in the process then remember to snap pics.
