How To Get Beautiful Wood From Ugly Logs

We start with a couple of ugly log segments that appear unsalvageable. We then:
—split the logs into usable blanks
—hew the decaying and unusable wood from the blanks with an axe
—-smooth the surface of the blanks with a drawknife
Together, these steps reveal beautiful quartersawn wood usable for any number of small woodworking projects.

Splitting Wedge - This splitting wedge used in this video is at least 50 years old. If I had to replace it or add to my collection I would get a Gransfors Bruks splitting wedge. An expensive splitting wedge to be sure, but also one of unassailably high quality. A tool your great grandchildren will fight over. You won’t be disappointed.

Lie-Nielsen Curved Blade Drawknife - This drawknife appears to be out of production at the moment.

Galbert Drawsharp by Benchcrafted - sharpening a drawknife without one of these is straight up masochism. Get one of these and save your time for actually making stuff.

Carving Axe - The Wetterlings axe I use is no longer in production. An excellent, if not better carving axe is the Gransfors Bruks Swedish Carving Axe.
