Friends of the Blade 26: Gränsfors Bruks Axes

Прекрасне, колоритне, відео,про працю фінських майстрів,мабуть війде згодом в історію Фінляндії.Дякуєм ,хто працював,хто створював фільм,хто зберіг.З найкращими побажаннями з Украіни!

Somehow I feel like these people are part of my family.

älä aina vaan rakenna

Traditionalism Always Wins!

Back on early 80,s , my father told me how to use axe in order to build loghouse.
He was so good with axe that I could not make same accuracu or smooth surface with puukko.
Puukko, that means very sharp Finnish knife. He was patient with me to teach how axe should be used. Also always was very hard on fact that, all the tools you work with wood must be razor sharp !! I have built 2 cabins and 1 smokesauna with my own, with these learnings.

The axe is kind of universal tool for Finnish. Different shapes for needed use but basic axe works just about everything If it is sharp anynough.

A very cathartic video

Such beautiful skills. I wonder what happens to the insulation once the moss dries off, between the log?

Kreatif

1200-luku on muutes 13th century. Oli käännetty 12th century.

👍🇫🇮🇺🇦🇸🇪

How do they prevent termites?

In the 90s, detached houses would not have looked like that. the log house was just made for this video

i never get tired of this video 🙏

Bom dia!
Trabalho fantástico.🙏🙏✌️

The early Finn's who settled southern New Jersey in the 1600s brought exactly this kind of craftsmanship with them.

Kunnioitettavaa ammattitaitoa!

sisu!

God I love how skilled with the axes they are. They know just how to strike to efficiently make the joints.

Do you own this video or just steal it?

Please send me craftsmen from Finland to help restore my house in NJ. Dare to dream!

These Gentlemen are true Artist of their craft. BEST method I've ever seen. Tho' I wonder where the earlier man got the flat boards. LOL. It still was very interesting and informative.

What is the purpose of hewing the logs after they are up?

Fantastic video. God bless our European brothers and sisters 🙏🙏

Where are the strong independent women when it comes to such tasks???

Seeing that sawdust insulation and dirt floor makes me understand why they made mousetrap attachments for black powder pistols lol

What's the background music on this? I like it ☺️

I would love to work with these men to build a house, or anyone who can do this kind of building! My dream home!

I love videos like this

Finnish kinda sounds like Estonian but I also hear some Hungarian. Interesting language

Excellent video, and the vintage audio is great :) As an american born with Scandinavian ancestry, to be able to see the work and skills of the Finnish people is beautiful.

20 de estos en el mismo pueblo y se quedan sin bosque en una década.

the meant or not joke of them all partying and then cutting to the man chopping is hilarious

Finnish?! What an insult.

I dream to have a job like this. Modern technology gives me a headache. Everyone on the work sites drink too much caffeine and exhaust themselves even with machines!

Them Boy's are some log cabin buildin son of guns they know what they're doing

So nice too see no chain saws. See so many videos saying building traditional log home using power tools and tractors and 16”circular saws

They build this house in just 25 minutes.. No wonder the russians got their ass handed to them!

Спасибо авторам, я учусь по таким видео и повторяю.

When they say you don't need to understand the language to appreciate the beauty, I'm thinking they got that statement from watching amazing craftsmanship like this! Bravo 👏!! Years ago, I ordered a gift package from this channel.A gift set of how in detail to build a wood structure with a certain knotch. I'll just say the package it came in was incredible, enough said. I'm craving with so much desire to work with my hands again, idk It's just ingrained in a males crazy brain. Ty, for all the inspiration thru out the years.

Success

Nyt tekisi mieli tehdä mökki...

Hirsitalo on hyvaa talo. Dad built one like this when he was 70 years old using an axe, saw and chisels. He sharpened everything to razor sharp and whistled and sang in Finnish the whole time. Se oli kirvesmies.

Soviet Finnland 💪
