Cracked Splitting Axe to Viking Maul - Restoration No Talking

This was a cracked splitting axe or maul I had in my workshop. The cutting edge was cracked and overall it was in very rough shape. I considered sanding the faces down but they were extremely pitted and would require removing a lot of material. I decided to go with a light refinishing and cold bluing along with a wood charred handle after seeing a few Nordic style axes on Esty. I considered using a leather wrap on the handle and head but couldn't get any in time to finish the video today. The maul is neither Nordic nor is it very old, I simply styled the restoration after reproduction Viking axes I had seen online. This splitting maul restoration took about two days start to finish. The splitting maul performed very well splitting wood. Leave a comment if you prefer the restoration no talking style videos or if you think you would be interested in a soft spoken narration. If you enjoyed the axe to Viking maul transformation consider subscribing for more videos and to stay tuned for a very unique restoration I have planned this month. Thanks for watching and take care. 0:00 - Inspecting 0:27 - Sandblasting 1:26 - Filing/Grinding 1:54 - Sanding to Remove Grinding Marks 2:07 - Reshaping the Cutting Edge 3:24 - Cold Bluing 5:34 - Charring Handle 6:09 - Hanging the Maul 6:59 - Inspection/Testing 7:40 - Thank you
