Hello Fellow Woodworkers,
Not strictly woodworking but came across this beautifully filmed documentary on axe forging.

Thank you Paul.
Back in 1965 imports were already shutting down manufacturing and craftsmen with irreplaceable skills were getting paid more in the “new economy” for sweeping the floor than practicing their craft.
