Axe Restoration [Satin Axe Head With Walnut Handle]
Remove rust with cola? That's supposed to work? In this restoration of this extremely rusty old axe I will try... But of course I will also restore the complete axe, that means I will harden, quench in oil and water, file, grind, polish, cut with the band saw and saws and more. It will definitely be hot because it burns, but also very cold when you quench it.
▶ What did I do ?! ◀
I remove the coarse rust with a wire brush, then soak the extremely rusty axe head in cola and try to remove the remaining rust. I work on the contour with a belt grinder, an angle grinder and files. The axe head is then heated to 800°C/1472°F and quenched in 80°C/176°F oil. I then sanded the surface with sandpaper up to a grain size of 800. I made a new handle from walnut wood as the old one was no longer available. Now just rub the handle with linseed oil and hammer in the old wedges, and the new old axe is finished.
